Apr.24.01: Light For The Day - "And This, too ..."

-- Matthew 24:35 
"Heaven and earth will pass away, 
but my words will remain forever."

-----------------
It is said and Eastern monarch once charged 
his wise men to invent him a sentence, to be
ever in view, and which should be true and
appropriate in all times and situations.

They presented him the words:
"AND THIS, TOO, SHALL PASS AWAY."

How much it expresses! 
How chastening in the hour of pride --
How consoling in the depth of affliction!

-- Abraham Lincoln

Matthew 5:18,19 (NLT)
"I assure you, until heaven and earth disappear, 
even the smallest detail of God’s law will remain 
until its purpose is achieved. 
19 So if you break the smallest commandment
and teach others to do the same, you will be the
least in the Kingdom of Heaven. But anyone 
who obeys God’s laws and teaches them will 
be great in the Kingdom of Heaven."
