Vision

The waves covered me and my barkEditorial Note: A bark (also spelled barque) is a boat., also, the one that was at my side went down with me. At first we remained above the water only a little and the one with me pulled for shore. All of a sudden we were immersed in the waves, sunk with our boat and the vision disappeared. Father, fit me for the hour, "though I walk through the valley" "thy rod and thy staff shall comfort me"Ps 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Same date

Had a vision where my sister Mrs. Tilton, fell, the stair broke on which she was standing She lay as if dead. I sprang to the stairway tried to reach the next step and go down her stairway to help her, but could not reach the step and while I tried she spoke – the vision then passed.


Mary B. G. Eddy

O may God give me grace, "as my day is so may my strength be"Deut 33:25 Thy shoes shall be iron and brass; and as thy days, so shall thy strength be.
