He will know neither rest nor joy – until he shall have heaven for his home, and sit forever beneath the smiles of that gracious God, who is at once the author of his existence, and the source of his felicity.

Grandpa

Shooting the breeze down at the Veteran's hospital, a trio of old timers
ran out of tales of their own heroic exploits and started bragging about
their ancestors.

"My great grandfather, at age 13," one declared proudly, "was a drummer
boy at Shiloh."

"Mine," boasted another, "went down with Custer at the Battle of Little
Big Horn."

"I'm the only soldier in my family," confessed vet number three, "but if
my great grandfather was living today he'd be the most famous man in the
world."

"What'd he do?" his friends wanted to know.

"Nothing much. But if he were alive today, he would be a 165 years old."
