"It May Be at Morn" by H.L. Turner

You have a friend who is ill, and the doctor says he cannot last long; he must die. You have called a great many times expecting to hear of his departure, but he is still alive.

This would be like the first inscription, “The Lord knows those who are his.” But the…

God sometimes gives His people fresh promises by faith just before a trial is about to come upon them. It was so with Elijah.
