                                                                      No Cause to Blush

                                          "Do not fear,  for you will not be ashamed."

                                                                                                  ~ Isaiah 54:4

  "We shall not be ashamed of our faith. Critics may assail the Scriptures upon which we ground our belief, but every year the Lord will make it more and more clear that in His Book there is no error, no excess, and no omission. It is no discredit to be a simple believer: the faith that looks alone to Jesus is a crown of honor on any man's head.
  We shall not be ashamed of our hope. Our Lord will come, and then the days of our mourning shall be ended. How we shall glory in the Lord who first gave us lively hope, and then gave us what we hoped for!

  We shall not be ashamed of our love. Jesus is altogether lovely, and never shall we have to blush because we yielded our hearts to Him. The lovers of Jesus shall find themselves honored by all holy beings."
