pleasures and glories of this world.<br />

out <strong>the</strong>ir lives to help <strong>the</strong> people, while many of<br />

<strong>the</strong>m appear as if <strong>the</strong>y did not want help. For fear<br />

of losing a little of this world's gain, some let <strong>the</strong>se<br />

precious privileges come and go as though <strong>the</strong>y<br />

were of but little importance. Let all who profess to<br />

believe <strong>the</strong> truth respect every privilege that God<br />

offers <strong>the</strong>m to obtain clearer views of His truth, of<br />

His requirements, and of <strong>the</strong> necessary preparation<br />

<strong>for</strong> His coming. A calm, cheerful, obedient trust in<br />

God is what He requires.<br />

You need not weary yourselves with busy<br />

anxieties and needless cares. Work on <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> day,<br />

faithfully doing <strong>the</strong> work which God's providence<br />

assigns you, and He will have a care <strong>for</strong> you. Jesus<br />

will deepen and widen your blessings. You must<br />

<strong>the</strong>se meetings prepared to work. Leave your home<br />

cares, and come to find Jesus, and He will be found<br />
