The Revelation of The Spirit

Let not your hearts be troubled for I will send you a Comforter. I remind you of this again—of this beautiful promise and what lies beneath it. Once more, square the shoulders, take a good look at the opposing forces, tighten your wills, and go on—go on, not to more sorrow, but to joy and achievement and to that revelation which only the hard and upward road can bring you and which only the soldier who is out to conquer can achieve—the revelation of the Spirit when each one is at liberty to divest himself of the body and its hindrances and to meet us free and untrammelled and to see something of that unfoldment of Divinity, which is the possession of all who have tried to love and serve the Saviour. The unfoldment of Divinity—you cannot take it in but try to build up something, so that the necessary impetus may be found within to send you on without a backward glance and to take that chill from your heart and to make it a journey of rejoicing.
