JOY IN HEAVEN.

By Spurgeon

You remember the occasion when the Lord met with thee. Oh, little didst thou think what a commotion was in heaven. If the Queen had ordered out all her soldiers, the angels of heaven would not have stopped to notice them. If all the princes of earth had marched through the streets, with all their jewelry and robes and crowns, and all their regalia, their chariots and their horsemen—if the pomp of ancient monarchs had risen from the tomb; if all the might of Babylon and Tyre and Greece had been concentrated in one great parade, yet not an angel would have stopped in his course to smile at these poor tawdry things; but over you, the vilest of the vile, the poorest of the poor, over you angelic wings were hovering, and concerning you it was said on earth and sung in heaven, Hallelujah, for a child is born to God to-day.—Spurgeon.
