said very tru'y {" You have no more right to
iDjure the rational language than to chip

rately that their definite meaning is lost, is
to commit an intellectual offence correspond

way they are honored, laughed at, read,
quoted and admired Chris. Intelhgencer.
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1877-12-26
From the North Carolina Presbyterian.
This DAY"

How hard it is for us to learn the lesson
which is evidently intended in the petition of
our Lords Prayer, concerning eur own tenn
poral want: Give us this day our daily
bread" A petition not for this year, nor
next, not for that vague time we call the fu-
ture, not even for this week, nor even for to-
morrow; but for "this day."
And the gracious promise of strength to
meet what the Father may appoint US, is
couched in the same terms: Gas thy day,
80 shall thy strength be-"
Do not We doubt Gods faithfulness when
We give those anxious thoughts for the NOR
row which our Master positively forbade, as
suring US that "Sufficient unto the day is
the evil thereof"
There is something exquisitely child-like
in the attitude of that faithful soul who, Civ
ing to the wind his fears, lets the horizon of
to-day" bound his wants; who believing
that the Fathers almighty hands are full of
blessings which it would be just as easy for
Him to lavish upon him at once as to give
him from day to day, yet believes His wisdom
is perfect.
"Your heavenly Father knoweth ye have
need of all these things" said the Divine
Word, and it must be in profound wisdom
that He chooses to give US only the days por-
tion at time. And could We but wisely ae-
cept His will about it, how comparatively
light would our crosses seem, for we all know
how many of them are heavier because of the
anticipation of their increased weight, how
many that We anticipate are never laid on
our shoulders, and how many that would
otherwise crush US to earth are upborne by
those tender and almighty hands that are
ready to carry our sorrows.
Again, there is true Christian philosophy
in remembering that yesterdays trials and
crosses are past-they come not back again:
that while it is mournfully true that
I" The tender light of day that is dead
VIII never come back to me,
it is equally true that the anguish and the
pain and the cares of yesterday are dead too,
and if with brave hearts we bury them and
go and tell Jesus, He is ready to give new
strength for to-day'S burden.
After all, what is life worth to too many
Christians but the same vain struggle after
earthly happiness that We condemn in the
worldling, struggle to throw off that cross
which is the mark of the Lord Jesus, and
which He intends us, in His infinite wisdom
to take up daily.
The daily portion, not only of temporal
food but Of spiritual also, will be ours, for
He who answers prayer has taught US to pray
for them. The strength for the day will be
ours too, for He hath promised that. Crosses
will come, trials will beset US, clouds will
cover, but be it ours to bear for the day
Our Heavenly Father "knoweth that We
have need of these things" and He is sour
Refuge and Strength" WAIF.
