I 28 A Good Old. Custom of ;he Shvants of God<br />

be filled with this thought, so that it may become part<br />

of our very life, and thus render our every thought,<br />

word, and deed, a message of love and repration to<br />

that loving, outraged Heart. Let us try to think how<br />

He loves us, and let us ever remember that it is on<br />

those hearts on which He has lavished <strong>the</strong> greatest<br />

Rifts and graces, that He inflicts <strong>the</strong> deepest wounds.<br />

It may be only a slmple aspiration of love we can offer<br />

Him, a simple thought of Him in His loving abjection,<br />

a little flower laid at His feet, but whatever it is it<br />

speaks to Him in language He understands, and which<br />

He will not forget. Let us try to make o<strong>the</strong>rs realize<br />

this love, and remember <strong>the</strong> great secret of influence<br />

over souls is - to make <strong>the</strong>m know and feel that Jesus<br />

loves <strong>the</strong>m, before we try to make <strong>the</strong>m love Him, and<br />

in our work when we have to deal with souls who perhaps<br />

have very little intellect. but often a great deal of<br />

heart, this is <strong>the</strong> only means of doing real good.<br />

Let us <strong>the</strong>n when we come before Jesus in <strong>the</strong><br />

Tabernacle bring a lively faith in His presence, and<br />

in His loving suffering Heart. - Leajets, FATHEB<br />

Servants of Bob<br />

IS an old custom with <strong>the</strong> servants of God always<br />

r to have some little prayers ready and to be darting<br />

<strong>the</strong>m up to heaver? frequently during <strong>the</strong> day, lifting<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir minds to God out of <strong>the</strong> filth of this world. He<br />

who adopts this plan will get great fruit with little pains.<br />
