Little Freddie sat on the doorstep and sang to himself: “There’ll be no sorrow there...”
A stranger was passing along the street just then, burdened and troubled. His ear caught the words Freddie sang, so he stopped and asked: “Where will there be no sorrow, my boy?”
Quickly Freddie responded in the lines of the hymn: “In heaven above where all is love.”
The Spirit of God used those words in blessing to that man for they led him to the Saviour where he found comfort and rest for his troubled soul. Jesus becomes everything to one who puts his trust in Him, life, peace, hope, and strength for the way.
“Come unto Me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:2828Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28). “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.” John 14:66Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. (John 14:6).
