Show For Steadfast Peace. God puts within our reach the power pow-er of helpfulness, the ministry of pity; he is ever ready to increase his grace in our hearts, that as we live aud act among all the sorrows of the world we may learn by slow degrees skill and mystery of consolation. "If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them." There is no surer way of steadfast peace in this world than the active exercise of pity; no happier temper of mind and work than the lowly watching to see if we can lessen any misery thit is about us;- nor is there any better way of growth in faith and love. Francis Paget. |
