GODS TILLAGE GROUND.

| husbandmsn named Ohio, called one day on bis
neighbor Godfrey, and slid " l have for MANY year
observed your life and actions but one thing has nj
ready appeared to me most excellent and OF the same
time, most extraordinary Though your lot has been
very variable and many troubles have befaen YOU and
your family still your eountenance appears bright and
PEACEFUL and your conversation and actions are the
same on your unfortunate your happy days. Teach
me how you are able for such things p
Godfrey answered, chat will | do in few words
Ny own vocation and my daily abors are my insttuc-
tors. Behold have learned to consider myself ar nv
life IS tillage field"
At these words, Ohio looked mp as If be did not nm
derstand his friend who went on. Behold nv broth.
er, when troubles come think of the plough and bar
row, which turn up the earth then search for the
waste spot il my own hear and for the wseds which
flourish therein These must be eradicated or every
exerton will be in vain to make the fruit flourish -
Sometimes leok upon my troubles as thunder ,tor,
WHICH ct first appears dark and threatening bot which
afterwards draws down rain and clears the air and
then, think, when this is the sun will shine again
1t is thus that consider myself and my life tiIlaoe
field Dare the field to say to the plough, What doest
thou here !"
Bot" said Ohio, "you tell me of the fruits instead
OF the root tell me how you arrived at these thoughts
AID medits 'ions."
And Godfrey answered and said, Can spiritual gifts
come from any one but from Him who sends rain and
sunshine on fields and who causes the ground to
produce food foe to eat Behold we are Gods til
lsge grounds. "-Eztraet from Krumaehsr.
