IN our picture this week we have a little tired-out girl and she has gone to sleep. It is not with heavy burdens that have been bestowed upon her, but just with play. Such is the way with us, we get tired out and have to take rest in sleep. Then the time comes that these bodies of ours give out entirely and the Lord separates the soul and the spirit from the body. If sin had not come into the world these bodies would not have worn out but I judge we would have become tired and would have needed sleep but we would not have died for God tells us— “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.” Rom. 5:1212Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: (Romans 5:12). And again
“The wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Rom. 6:2323For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23).
For those who believe in the Lord Jesus, and thus have Him as their Saviour, the Scripture says “There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.” Heb. 4:99There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. (Hebrews 4:9). So if you are resting on the Lord Jesus for the salvation of your soul, it is a blessed thing for you to look forward to the time when you shall be with the Lord and know no more of what it is to be weary. There all evil will be done away and there will be nothing to mar our rest.
