Rev. Ernest G. Smith preached at the
Unitarian church from Revelations xxi As

thar sal upon he throne said, Behold I make
all things new"
There are moments when we rise above
ourselves and our surroundings and the
great Oversoul flows into our lives with its
bold announcements which always partake
of the nature of revelation. In such mo.
'nents we know what 1t is to have all things
