Pastor’s Column
Don’t miss the next world
By A.C. Truluck
For the Times-Journal
“I will lift up mine eyes unto
the hills, from whence cometh my
help. My help cometh from the
Lord,..which made heaven and
earth.” Psalm 121:1-2.
The psalmist seemed to be one
who greatly appreciated the beau
ty of the hills, but his appreciation
looked far beyond the hills to rec
ognize the one who made the hills.
His God made not only the earth,
but the heavens. “The heavens
declare the glory of God; and the
firmament sheweth His handi
work”, Psalm 19:1.
Being a south Georgia country
boy, and having never lived any
where but in Georgia and Florida,
I hardly realized the magnitude of
what the Psalmist felt until the
Lord, in His plan for my life and
ministry, moved us to the foothills
of the Blue Ridge Mountains, at
Marion, N.C. Such beauty I have
never beheld before.
Oh, I had traveled through
these and other mountains before,
but to be there and see the various
sunsets and sunrises, to see the
clouds come down and cover us,
to literally live in the clouds, is a
wonder all its own.
To stand atop Mount Mitchell,
the highest elevation east of the
Mississippi River, 6,684 feet
above sea level, and to view the
mountains afar off, is something
beyond expression.
To look beyond these with the
eye of faith and know that it didn’t

will send chill bumps up the spine.
Thank God that I. too. can say like
the Psalmist. “I know my help
comes from the Lord.” It is not
something to be taken for granted,
but in all this beauty, it is simply a
foretaste of things to come for all
who love Him and will obey Him
in service.
The lover of God who lives by
faith is blessed to look far beyond
the hills to see something of what
is stated in Isaiah 64:4 and repeat
ed in I Corinthians 2:9, “Eye hath
not seen nor ear heard, neither
have entered into the heart of man.
the things which God hath pre
pared for them that love Him”.
To believe is to long for such
beauty which will be enjoyed with
perfect joy no pain, no sorrow, no
defilement, no disappointments,
but forever perfect life in perfect
beauty. This is the promise to
every soul who believes to the
saving of the soul. To gain this
whole world and all its treasures
and beauty and then lose your soul
would be a bad bargain.
Don’t miss the next world. It is
so far superior to this one that our
vocabulary cannot explain it nor
mind comprehend it. It is a forev
er world, without any imperfec
tion.
Please don’t miss it. If you do;
you have missed everything.
