THE STREAM OF LIFE.

The following beautiful passage is from ser.
mon preached by Bishop Heber, TO bis parish
ione,s short time before his departure for
India, in 1928:
Life bears us on like the stream Of
mighty river, our boat, at first, glides
down the narrow channel, through
the playful murmurings of the little
brook, and the winding OF its grassy
border. The trees shed their blossoms
over our young heads, The flowers on
the brink seem to offer themselves to
our young hands; we are happy in
hope, and we grasp eagerly at the
beauties around US; but the stream
hurries on, & still our handsare empty
sour course in youth and manhood
is long wider aud deeper flood, and
amid objects more striking and mag
ni6cent. We are animated by the
moving picture of enjoyment aud in
dustry v hich passes before US, we are
excited by some shortlived success, or
depressed and rendered miserable by
equally shortliyed disappointment. But
our energy and our dependence are
both 10 vain. The stream bears us on,
and our joys and our griefs are alike
left behind US; we may be shipwreck
ed but we cannot anchor; our voyage
may be fastened but it cannot be de
Iayed; whether rongh or smooth, the
river hasiens towards its home, ill The
roaring OF the ocean is in our ears, and
the tossing of his waves is beneath our
keel, and the lands lessen from our
eyes, and the floods are lifted up a
round US, and the earth loses sight OF
Us, and we take our last leave OF earth
and its inhabitants, and OF our further
voyage there is no witness, but the In
finite and Eternal.
And do we still take so much anx
ious thought for The future days, when
the days which are gone by, have so
strangely and uniformly deceived Us:
Can we still so set our hearts on the
creatures of God, when we find by
sad experience, that the Creator oily
is permanent Or shall we not ratn.
er lay aside every weight and every
SIN which does most easily btsct Us
and think of ourselves hencetorth as
wayfariDg persons only who have no
abiding inheritance but in the hope oil
better world, and to whom even that
world would be worse than hopeless
il it.were moi for our Lord Jesus Christ,
aud the interest which we have obtain
ed I'D his mercies.
