The most cheerful view of life is
the religious view. For life is sure
" the gift and appointment of God.
We do not overlook the darker ele-
ments in 1.-THE burdens, the troub-
les, the sufferings, the griefs. We
do not pretend that all is sunshine.
But we believe the sun always is
shining, even when we do not see it,
and that there is light in every
cloud; that under every burden there
is strength, in every trial a good
discipline, in every grief a sacred
poace; that there is in all a divine
purpose and meaning, if we have
the eye of Faith to see, and the pa
thence of Trust to endure, and the
light of Hope to look beyond. We
are here to serve and help our fellow
men after the pattern of the Divine
One. That is religion. It is what
the Great Teacher did. He initiated
the Divine Father. Such life of
cheerful service, ofhuman good will,
of integrity, honesty and fidelity,
inwardly consecrated by a sacred
trust in the supermundane God of
the universe, is the best aud only
needed preparation for the life which
is to come when we shall have done
with the lite that now is.
