"That where I am, there ye may be also." - John 14:3.

Lord, is this thy desire? Didst thou take such a desire as this to heaven with thee? When thou wert parted from thy disciples and a cloud was about to receive thee out of their sight, were these sweet and love-expressing words still hovering on thy lips? When thou didst ascend up far above all principality and power, and might and dominion, when the hosts of heaven clustered gladly and adoringly around thee, were thine eyes still fixed on us, and did the desire still predominate in thy heart, that where thou art, there we might be also? Did this desire still follow thee to the throne where thou rulest heaven and earth? Has it kept possession of thy breast during all these ages? And now that thou art surrounded by thy Daniels and Pauls, Elijahs and Johns, Abrahams and Peters, Luthers and Wesleys, Whitefields and Brainerds, is there this still wanting in the cup of thy blessedness, namely, that we thy saints on earth should be with thee, where thou art? Then, 0, our loving Lord, help us to reciprocate this desire, to set our affections on high, to lay aside every weight and run the race before us. Make us rapidly meet for the inheritance of the saints in light. Walk with us in our wilderness, that we may walk with thee in the place of thy glory.
