Striving


2 Corinthians 13:11


11 Finally, brothers and sisters, rejoice! Strive for full restoration, encourage one another, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.

Lord, you are excellent in all things. Help me to keep my eyes forever on you.

Gone

Gone is a word that is reflecting in my mind.


gone

GONE, pp. of go; pronounced nearly gawn.

1. Departed.

It was told Solomon that Shimei had gone from

Jerusalem to Gath. 1 Kings.2.

2. Advanced; forward in progress; with far, farther, or further; as a man far gone in intemperance.

3. Ruined; undone. Exert yourselves, or we are gone.

4. Past; as, these happy days are gone; sometimes with by. Those times are gone by.

5. Lost.

When her masters saw that the hope of their gains

were gone---Acts.16.

6. Departed from life; deceased; dead.

I can identify with each of these definitions today.

Yes this is a bit melancholy... Sorry
