More to follow!
Dear Friends,

story of our lives. Read it and be encouraged. God bless you.
Because of Calvary,
John Janney
“You know the story that is told about the hymn, ‘More to follow,’ ― how Mr. Rowland Hill, having determined to give to some poor minister a hundred pounds, sent him £5, and wrote in the envelope, ‘More to follow.’ To his surprise, at the end of a month, there came another one with ‘More to follow,’ and so it kept on time after time, till the amount was all given. There is the pity of it; it did get all given some time or other. ‘More to follow’ came to an end. But it is never so with God; with him it is ‘always more to follow.’ From strength to strength, from joy to joy, from grace to grace, we still go on till we come to heaven; and I suppose that, even there, we shall still go on and on in everlasting progress scaling successive heights of bliss.” [Charles Haddon Spurgeon, The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit XLI, (London: Passmore and Alabaster, 1895), p. 257]
