ANCHORED FROM ABOVE.

By Rev. George A. Paull

As a huge anchor goes down into the great deep and fastens its iron tooth upon the moveless rocks, holding the ship like a giant arm, so the Christian’s anchor of hope goes up into the heavenly sanctuary and fastens itself upon Jesus, and we are held safely forever, sure and steadfast. The Christian hope reaches up to heaven and whispers to the soul, “This light affliction is but for a moment.” God’s people meet adversity with courage, one trial after another, shock succeeding shock, because they are anchored safely, and have trust in God, and a sublime hope in His present favor and His future blessing.—Rev. George A. Paull.
