#036 ~ Henry Beecher


Welcome to Telegrams From Heaven

Former minister Henry Beecher reminds us of the importance of relying on faith in the midst of suffering. We’ve translated his telegram into an easier to read experience. We hope you enjoy it. Thanks for dropping by.

Dear Wounded in Spirit,

God  uses  suffering  as  a  whetstone  to  make  men  sharp  with. 

Unfortunately  the  sharpening  process  is  painful. 

Those who rely on their faith that things will improve are the ones who experience it sooner.

I encourage you to have faith. 

Henry  Beecher  =

A Few More Items

Through brief, focused and topical messages, Telegrams From Heaven intends to encourage, entertain and inspire our neighbors around the world. We want to provide hope and inspiration. 

The “authors” of each Telegram From Heaven are men and women of accomplishment who lived in the ancient or recent past. Each were known for their faith, or at least the potential for faith during their lifetimes. They are from around the globe, from every walk of life, and their life stories are inspiring and encouraging. We believe these stories offer powerful messages that might help change lives in some small or meaningful way, even if just to improve your walk with God, or to realize someone cares enough to send you a Telegram From Heaven.

The word “heaven” inspires limitless definitions among the religious and non-religious. A few examples include “the home of God,” “a setting of ultimate perfection in the clouds,” or “a place where the resurrection bodies and departed souls of believers spend eternity.” Most often the word conjures up images of ornate, opulent buildings and streets paved with gold. Of beauty, of paradise, of a heavenly kingdom. 

Most Christians believe it is a real place, separate from Earth. Others are convinced it is close enough for its inhabitants to reveal themselves miraculously to the living. 

Thanks for dropping by.
