 Borrowing Misfortune.
 Again, the habit of borrowing misfor- tune is wrong because 1t units us Tor It when 1t actually does come.

Their amynunition come under the guns of real misfortune. Boys in attempting to jump wall some times go so far back in order to get inn exhausted, and these long races in order to get spring enough to vault trouble bring us up at last to the dreadful real
 Finally, the habit of borrowing trouble Is wrong because 1t is unbelief. God has promised to take care of us.

Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
