Does This Concern You?
Are you satisfied with your fife?
With your soul? Do you think "The
Heavenly Father" is satisfied with
you? Are you doing your very best
for Him?
If you have tried to climb the lad
der of success and failed, who did
you blame? .Do you . bcTTeve if you
had surrendered your soul completely
to the Lord and asked Him to help
you succeed, that you would have
succeeded? Through Him we can do
all things. Without Him we gain
nothing.
Have you surrendered your life to
Him? If not, don t you think its
time? ' .'
We should never have to do spring
cleaning like the housekeeper, but
keepVour hearts clean the whole year
round, we' can it we will trust in
"Him who doeih all things well."
We should tie ready- and willing
any , time, to do the little deeds of
'kindness which fall in our path every
day, for '. it's the little deeds -that
count. We don't have to travel the
world over to find them, just look
.all around you, and you'll find some
one in need. We all .remember the
song, "Help Somebody Today." We
should help some 'one every day.
And we can.
I don't care who you meet, if you
smile and speak to them, it make-,
their hearts lighter and you'll fcer
better.. Try it and ?ec. .
If you feel down hearted and out,
you meet one of your friends,
wouldn't it smake" you feel worse if
this friend passed you without no
ticing you? That's exactly the way
one of your friends would feel if you
treated them that way. "";"-
No one Would pass "Our Savior"
and not speak to Him.- .No, we
wouldn't be worthy to speak to Him,
we would fall at His feet and beg His
forgiveness for our sins. Then He
doesn't want us to pass any one else
land never speak, for He says, "Inas
much as you did it unto one of. the
least of there, you did it unto mei"
If we practice this way of living
and keep our souls clean we will be
much better prepared to meet "Our
Savior" and Hcll be better satisfied
with us. and .we'll be better satisfied.
Try it! ; "AUNT DINAH,"
