Do not despise or disdain the suffering of the afflicted. What a source of joy, to know that we have such a Friend in heaven to plead on our behalf! Through the visible ascension of Christ our views and contemplation of heaven are changed. . . . Now we look upon it as our future home, where mansions are being prepared for us by our loving Redeemer. May our prayer be clothed with a new interest, since it is communion with our Saviour. . . .
