HEIGHTS, PRESSING TOWARD

The peaks of some mountains are always enveloped in morning

mists. They shut down on the climber like a sky of lead beyond

which neither rift in the clouds or ray of sunlight is visible.

The expansive view is excluded and self is left, humanly

speaking, alone in the gloom. But if he presses forward, keeping

onward and upward, the light of the eastern sun will soon flood

him with light.

In the world we are often confused by the mountain mists. Then

is the time to press forward, in the faith that we shall see the

rays of the rising Son of righteousness dispel the clouds and

light breaking forth. (Text.)
