(Revelation 2:10.) On a dark night following a tropical storm, I stepped out onto the porch. Unrelieved gloom shrouded everything. No star shone in the sky, and no lights were showing from the doorways of village houses across the valley. Then I was surprised to see above my head a bit of yellow light flashing on and off. Though small, it was vivid and cheering. On investigation, I found it to be a glowwom on the ceiling of the porch alone and out of its natural enviornment, but continuing to shine. Either the storm had driven the little glowworm there, or for some other reason it had com pletely lost its way. Nevertheless, its bright glow was undimmed. The Christian slaves of Caesar's household, as have ians ever since, lights shine thro gfer, disaster, and dark nights ol discoi never be without gleam n1 we are faithful in our witness.
