"The voice of weeping shall be no more heard."-Isaiah 65:19
    
    The glorified weep no more, for all outward a causes of grief are gone. There are no broken friendships, nor blighted prospects in heaven. Poverty, famine, peril, persecution, and slander, are unknown there. No pain distresses, no thought of death or bereavement saddens. They weep no more, for they are perfectly sanctified. No "evil heart of unbelief" prompts them to depart from the living God; they are without fault before His thrown, and are fully conformed to His image. Well may they cease to mourn who have ceased to sin. They weep no more, because all fear of change is past. They know that they are eternally secure. Sin is shut out, and they are shut in. They dwell within a city which shall never be stormed; they bask in a sun which shall never set; they drink of a river which shall never dry; they pluck fruit from a tree which shall never wither. Countless cycles may revolve, but eternity shall not be exhausted, and while eternity endures, their immortality and blessedness shall co-exist with it. They are for ever with the Lord. They weep no more, because every desire is fulfilled. They cannot wish for anything which they have not in possession. Eye and ear, heart and hand, judgment, imagination, hope, desire, will, all the faculties, are completely satisfied; and imperfect as our present ideas are of the things which God hath prepared for them that love him, yet we know enough, by the revelation of the Spirit, that the saints above are supremely blessed. The joy of Christ, which is an infinite fulness of delight, is in them. They bathe themselves in the bottomless, shoreless sea of infinite beatitude. That same joyful rest remains for us. It may not be far distant. Ere long the weeping willow shall be exchanged for the palm-branch of victory, and sorrow's dewdrops will be transformed into the pearls of everlasting bliss. "Wherefore comfort one another with these words."

funfetti cookies




My daughter makes these cookies the recipe was on the side of the cake mix box. They are so soft and oh so yummy! Suggest making double or triple batch it doesn't make many and if you have cookie monsters in your house they won't last long. The recipe says, "makes 3 dozen", but we do good to get 2 dozen. Maybe we make ours larger than the recipe says. We have a cookie scoop that makes the dough into balls so it is pretty much the same size cookies. Now on to the recipe.

Funfetti Cookies

Ingredients:
1 (18.9 oz.) pkg. Pillsbury Moist supreme funfetti cake mix
1/3 cup oil
2 eggs
1/2 (15.6 oz.) can Pillsbury creamy supreme funfetti vanilla frosting

Directions:
1. Heat oven to 375 degrees. In large bowl, combine cake mix, oil and eggs; stir with spoon until thoroughly moistened. Shape dough into 1 inch balls; place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. With bottom of glass dipped in flour, flatten to 1/4 inch thickness.

2. Bake 375 for 6 to 8 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets.

3. Spread frosting over cookies. Immediately sprinkle each cookie with candy bits from frosting package. Let frosting set before storing. Store in tightly covered container.

Makes: 3 dozen cookies.

(Note: we make our own powdered sugar frosting and use sprinkles)
