You help a man in proportion as you streng then his faith; you injure him in proportion as you weaken it. BE STRONG We are not here to play, to dream, to drift; We have hard work to do and loads to lift; Shun not the struggle—face it, ’tis God’s gift. —Shaftesbury. The Lighter Cross No cross more heavy than the cross He bore, No path than His more rough for weary feet; No grave more dark than where He lay, Wrapped with the dead in silent clay— The sacrifice complete. No crown of thorns more keen or deadly sharp Than that pressed to His brow by cruel hate; No throbbing heart more torn or sad, In grief forbidden to be glad, While angels silent wait. i.. No life more holy, and with all serene, * Calm as the starlights of the midnight sky; v No hand so kindly in its pain, Leading the lost to hope again In love that cannot di< O heart of mine, in contemplation wait, Consider Him who calmly bore defeat; Copy His converse, all divine, Until thy fife and actions shine < Like His—divinely sweet. Thy bitterest cup less bitter still must be, Though filled with deepest bitterness of gall. Since He has drunk the deadly stream And lit the gloom with cheering gleam, In offering life to all.
