Sometimes the devil doesn't tempt us with evil; sometimes he allures us with good, distracts us with obligations, confuses us with compromise, or hinders us with business to keep us from that which is best- service to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! Remember, the devil always offers his best, before Christ will offer His will for your life.

When He Cometh (poem)

When he cometh, when he cometh
to make up his jewels,
all his jewels, precious jewels,
his loved and his own.

He will gather, he will gather
the gems for his kingdom,
all the pure ones, all the bright ones,
his loved and his own.

Little children, little children
who love their Redeemer,
are the jewels, precious jewels,
his loved and his own.

Like the stars of the morning,
his bright crown adorning,
they shall shine in their beauty,
bright gems for his crown.

-William Orcutt Cushing
