Illustration Friday - Forward


© Kelly Gatchell Hartley 2012

How rapidly time urges his flight; sometimes as a relentless, unsparing destroyer; but oftener as a swift-winged and beautiful angel; changing, yet not taking away this world's blessings: making our past sorrows look dim in the distance; opening many flowers of pleasure on our way, and gradually ripening our souls for the great eternity.

WILLIAM CHAMBERS, The Herald of Gospel Liberty, Sep. 22, 1921
