Yesterday’s answer:
(A) “I have taken
them to myself so that they can have rest”
“I had for a long time braced every nerve,
roused every energy of my soul and called upon God to strengthen me,” said
Mother Smith, “but when I entered the room and saw my murdered sons extended
both at once before my eyes and heard the sobs and groans of my family and the
cries of ‘Father! Husbands! Brothers!’ from the lips of their wives, children,
brothers, and sisters, it was too much; I sank back, crying to the Lord in the
agony of my soul. ‘My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken this family!’” In
reply Mother Smith heard a voice say to her, “I have taken them to myself, that
they might have rest.”
