My flesh and my heart faileth; but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever, Psal. 73.26.
If in this life onely we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable, 1 Cor. 15.19.
Set your affections on things above, and not on things on the Earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory, Col. 3.2, 3, 4.
Because I live, ye shall live also, John 14.19.
