SINGING TO THE GATE OF HEAVEN

May all of us have the faith in the Lord Jesus Christ which avails, that faith which works by love, and so, though we have begun in an egg of the earth, yet, through God's brooding, before we know it we shall chip the shell: and though we have lain so long coiled up and helpless, we shall begin to put forth plumes: and, disdaining the nest, and finding the ground chilly beneath our feet, with every gathering feather we shall pine for the air, and pining, begin to try those notes which we are yet to learn; and, at length, in some bright and beaded morning, we shall spread our wings, and rising above the tangle and the thicket, soar through the blue, singing to the gate of heaven.

-- Henry Ward Beecher

NOTE: Thanks to all who have responded to yesterday's anniversary message. A common thread is that the Spirit has used a SOUND BITES message to minister to you just when you needed it. Would love to hear from more. Many of the responses have been post to the SOUND BITES Ministry™ blog at  http://soundbitesministry.blogspot.com/2013/04/no-april-fools-joke.html.
