If we had prayed for this day's bread, and left the next to itself, not allotting to each day its appointed task, but ever deferring de-ferring that to the future, and drawing upon the future for its own troubles, which must be met when they come, we should have found simplicity and honesty in our lives, a capacity for work, an enjoyment in it. F. D. Maurice. |
