"As the Stars"

By Eliza H. Morton

THE promise that "they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars," has comforted many a teacher. As one writer has said, "They shall shine as the stars,—not Atlantic coast stars, but desert stars, Babylonian stars, where one can see so many more than here. They shake their wondrous firelight down into your face, and fairly dazzle your eyes. You shall shine as the stars, as bright and as long."

The follower of Christ will be wise,—a teacher, leading other souls to Christ, that they in turn may shine as the stars, until the whole earth and the universe of God is lightened with the dazzling splendor of the redeemed host. Eliza H. Morton.
