many reasons for thankfulness. \vliic!i
come to all men and which panics and
buxine s disaster cannot take away.
The text is Job vi, r». “Doth the wild
as> bray when he hath grass or low
(Mil the ox over his fodder?’’
Some people have a false reputation
for being gold natured that they may
easily lose. No man can be confidently
pronounced good natured until he has
been tested by adversity. No credit is
due to a prosperous man for not com
plaining If when he is poor and un
fortunate and sick he does not <•0111
plain, then he lias given proof of the
-trength and sweetness of ids charac
ter. His true nature is shown not
when he is basking in the sunshine,
but when he is deluged by the storm.
It is really revealed not when condi
tions are going the way he wishes, but
when all bis desires seem to be thwart
ed and lie is compelled to do what la*
' es not wish to do. He is not tempt-
I t 1 g "liable when lie is prosperous.
“Doth the wild ass bray when he hath
„rass or loweth the ox over his fod
der?”
There is a quaint legend told b.\
Dr. Knight that many years ago an
■asicrn I dug vas sailing in a ship with
1 Persian peasant. The peasant began
lo bitte'dy ( . ipiain of being shut up

T tlte same boat said, “I can silence

Now, In applying tills principle to
ourselves I am not gtdng to catalogue
your misfortunes. You can easily do
that yourself You have complained
about them enough You have harped
upon them day hi and day out. But I
am going to speak about your “si
leuces.” 1 would remind you of tbe
blessings you have In life Perhaps
the thought of these blessings, about
which you are apt to be silent, may
strengthen your heart to liear adver
sity should it come upon you.
Virtues of Parents.
In the first place. I have never heard ;
you complain about your father and
mother. They must certainly have beoii I
a great blessing to you. If they bad'
ni*t been, you would certainly have
talked tllspnrairingly of them. And thi-
is a very marvelous fact to me. be
cause they were not very wonderful
jteople from a human standpoint. I do
not think your father had much of an
education. Then he certainly was not
wealthy. He lived on a farm most of
his life. And your mother was not a
very beautiful woman. I saw her pic
ture In your home the other day. She
had just a plain, good, motherly face.
Sin* was just the kind of a woman we
would have supposed your father
would have married. She would not
have shone as the queen of a ball
room. She was the queen of the needle
and tlie best cook you have ever
known. Your father spent most of liD
time in the* liedds; she spent most of
her time In the* kite-hen and the nurs
ery. And vet you honor your mother
just as min li as though sin* had been
the most beautiful woman that ever
lived and as if tier fingers had been
lustrous with diamonds. And you pro
nounce your father’s name with as
much reverence as though his wisdom
had governed a nation instead of being
devoted to making a straight furrow
with a plow. Why Is all this? Why dc
you not find fault with the cradle h,
which you were rocked? Surely there
must have been something very mar
velous about your parents’ lives for
you not to complain about them.
“Well,” you answer, “the reason 1 j
love the dear faces of my father and '
mother so much is because they were 1
so good. Why, I am no child. I am 1
nearly fifty years of age. I have been ;
thrown witli all classes of people. I I
have lived in the homes of the rich as i
well as of the poor. And after nearly
half a century’s experience I can truly
say that I have never met a man or
a woman who was more truly trying
to live the t'hrist life than were my j
old father and mother. Why, their !
faith was so simple and true that it
v 1 • <D' no. I remember well the tinn*
when financial troubles threatened to
make us sell the farm. Father had
worked very hard that year, but just
before harvest time there came an aw- i
fill cyclone and battered down tin* !
grain. Then i! was an off year for |
fruit. Then mother, while nursing one i
of the neighbors, was taken down witli j
fever. To cap tin* climax father had i
an ugly horse, and one day it kicked
him and broke Ids leg. There we were,
a lot of little helpless eiiiidret), witli
both parents sick. I can remember as
though it were yesterday when father
called me into the room. lie said:
•Harry, my bay. I am afraid you mtisf
give iqi your s'-haol for awhile. I do
not know how God will lead us out]
from tills difficulty Rut ho can and i
lie will. ID* lias never failed me yet.
and In* will not fail me now.’ Then |
you look at me in a peculiar way as j
you say: ‘And God never did desert
him. He never did. Oh. my father
and mother were so good. They were
so truly good.’ ”
Thu Gist Inheritance.
I am giad to hear you say that, my
brother. It means more than gold and
silver. It menus more titan fame or
social prestige. I would sooner have a
father and mother such ns you had
than to have any other inheritance.
The heritage of your cradle is today
teeming with manifold blessings. No
wonder yeti do not complain of your
parents Why, by every word they
uttered, by every‘act they did. they
were leading you to the higher life
and their Inllueuce Is potent yet. When
you think of your parents and think
of the blessings of your old home
stead, you are content and grateful
There Is nothing left in that respect
for you to desire. “Doth the wild ass
bray when he halh grass or loweth the
ox over his fodder?”
Rut there is another momentous fact
in the record of your life that Impress
es me marvelously. 1 have never heard ;
>011 complain I eeause you did not have]
brain enough 01* opportunity enough t n
earn the daily bread for yourself and j
your family. Now, I have often beard ]
some of you complain because you
could not dress as well as some one
else. I have heard you complain be
cause you could not live in a grand
home, owy a summer cottage and run
an automobile. But I have never heard
you complain that you did not have
enough food to eat and enough cloth
ing to keep you warm and a weather
tight ruirf to cover your head. Not
once have you been in such straits that
you had not a five cent piece to buy a
loaf of bread. Not onee has your ward
robe been so empty that you did not
have an extra coat hanging there to
keep out the cold. As far as I can
make out, God lias fed and clothed
you and housed you for fifty years.
Having done this, has he not a right
to ask you to trust him to the end?
With such a past and with such a God
to care for your future are you not
content? Why should you complain?
“Doth the wild ass bray when he hath
grass or loweth the ox over his fod
der?”
But there Is rdill another fact that
impresses me about your life. You
never complain about your wife and
children. Though there are scores and
hundreds and I sometimes fear even
thousands of unhappy homes in this
city, yours is not one of these. You
are like the patriarch Job in his earlier
and later days. You think you have
about the finest wife, the b«*st sons,
tbe prettiest tnd smartest daughters
In all this land. And tin* trouble is
that your children know how highly
you think of them. Why, they can get
anything out of yon they desire Your
wife has Mime coMiiicn sens,- as to
raising the children, but you have ab
solutely none. But. though you may
be so fond of your children that you
allow them to get anything out of you.
are you doing all you can for their
best Interests? Your children love
you so much that you can lead them
to enter the Christian life. Now, in
your great love for your home and
family you have every incentive to be
faithful to your God. As a parental
undershepherd are you going to prove
recreant to your trust?
A Heathen Mother’s Idea.
There Is a sad story told that near
the burning ghats of Benares some
years ago an Indian missionary was
walking. There lie saw a poor Hin
doo mother weeping by the ashes
w’here a couple of days before the body
of her child had been burned. But In
the night a hideous serpent had crawl
ed in among the ashes to sleep. While
tbe woman was w»*cping the serpent
began to uncoil itself. Then, the
heathen's superstitious belief in the
transmigration of souls passing through
her mind, the horror stricken mother
flung herself at the feet of the white
man, crying. “O God, has my little ba
by come to that?” of course that was
only the result of her pagan teaching.
But. tell me. father and mother, have
you no fear that such a horror may
one day Ik.* yours if you fall to lead
your children to Christ? They seem
to you pure and good now, but If they
go out Into tiie world without the pro
tection that Christ alone can give you
may be startled and agonized at see
ing the serpents of sin and vice rear
their heads out of the breasts of those
loved ones. Y'ou can now mold them
as you will, but the time is short, and
unless you make the most of It they
will pass front under your influence
unprotected by Christ's love. Now,
summer they ceased to gather honey.
Instead they spent most of their time
tiding around, stinging the natives. So
I sometimes think it is with some of
us. We have what can lie called spirit
ual degeneracy. God lias surrounded
us with so many blesdngs that instead
of working for his glory and for the
good of our fellow men we spend most
of our time in living for self. We thrust
the sting when we should be gathering
the sweetness of the gospel life to give
out again to starving men. Art* we not
standing knee deep amid the clover
tops of multitudinous opportunities
which we can use for the good of
those who have never learned to hnnor
the name of our Christ?
But lastly 1 remark that I have nev
er heard you complain that God is not
willing to place the hands of ordina
tion and consecration upon your head
now for tiie glorious work of the gos
pel if you are only willing to surrender
your hearts to him. I cart* not what
your [iast has l>een. I care not wheth
er you have sinned seventy times sev
en Though your sins are as scarlet,
yet if you will come to him they will
become whiter than snow. Though
they are like crimson, yet they shall
become white as wool. Oh, my broth
er, with so many of your gospel oppor
tunities wasted, will you not make
your last days your best days? Will
you not pray that the eventide of your
life may shine with the golden sunset
of God’s smile of lienodiction?
Today I have been telling you about
your silences. For years you have
been complaining that you could not
do Gils, that and the other thing. To
day I have lK*en telling you a few
things that you could do if you only
wanted to do them. The mercies of
God about you are infinite. The great
fields of the sweet scented clover tops

example and your teachings, do your
utmost to place tliein under Christ’s
protecting cure.
Rut then* is another matter of which
I have never heard you complain. It
is your religious privileges. I have
never heard you complain because you
had no Sunday school to which you
could send your little children, no
prayer meeting in which you could as
semble with God's disciples to pray, no
church altar at viilch on tiie Sabbath
day you could kneel and worship.
Thousands upon thousands today are
living so far away from church that it
is an impossibility for them to go there
on tiie Sabbath day. But this Is not
the case with you. Here you are liv
ing practically under the shadow of
the walls of our church. Here is a
place in tie* family pew always wait
ing you. Here are good men and wo
men ready and willing to pray with
you. Wheuevi r you eomc within these
walls a spirit of love and consecration
creeps over you such as you find in no
other place on earth.
A Church Home.
Oli. how sorry I feel for tiie man or
the woman who has no church home!
I feel almost as sorry as for the man
who has no domestic fireside and who.
Instead of eating at ids own family tu
ble, is compelled to eat at boarding
houses and in restaurants. Home,
home, home! It is tiie sweetest word
In all tiie English language. Home,
home, home! It means tiie laughter
of children and tiie frolic in the nurs
ery. Home, home, home! It some
times means a very humble roof and
very plain fare upon the table. Home,
homo, home! It may mean struggle
and poverty and sickness and death.
But home means love, home means a
tender place, home means human
hearts clinging to us as we cling to
them. So in tie* household of faith,
called the church. \Ve may not seem
to the outside world to amount to
much, but we are one family gathered
In God’s temple, which is our spiritual
home. Here we are living for each
other. Here we are praying for each 1
other. And here, as in no other place, 1
we feel tiie spiritual magnetic touch |
of our fellow men. My friends, as a
church we ought to try to live more for
God. For the sake of the love we hear
each otli**r we should try to do It. Are
we not us tin* wild ass knee deep in the
field of sweet scented clover? Are we
not us the ox before the manger filled
to overflowing with richest grain?
But there is another fact that I have
never heard you
that Is your oppor
The Bethlehem manger is filled to over
flowing with the divine sacrifice. Oh.
hungry, starving sinner, will you not
come to the cross today and cat your
fill. "Ho, every one that thlrsteth,
come ye to tiie waters, and lie that
hath no money, come ye, buy and eat!
Yea, come, buy wine and milk with
out money and without price!”
