May 19: Superabounding Compensation

Listen from:
SA 66:14{"All that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the Lord hath blessed." More than that, the whole world shall "know that Thou hast loved them as Thou hast loved Me," and "I will make them... to know that I have loved thee." Is not this superabounding compensation for any tiny share we may now have in the world-wide misunderstanding of our Father's wisdom and our Savior's love? "And they shall know," is not only for those who do not know at all; for "at that day ye shall know that I am in My Father, and ye in Me, and I in you"—revelations of the mysteries of Godhead and of the ineffable union of Christ with His people, which have not yet entered into our hearts to conceive. "Then shall we know [if we follow on to know] the Lord." "For now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.”
Yes, work by faith and not by sight, fast clinging to My hand;
Content to feel My love and might, not yet to understand.
A little while thy course pursue, till grace to glory grow;
Then what I am and what I do, hereafter thou shalt know.
