Hogan. Evangelist stnart read his
text. which Ia he same that he has
preached from on this two former
occasions, Galatians. G.Iu AS we
have therefore opportunity, let US
do good uato ali men. especially uu-
10 them who are OF the household
OF faith
The preacher said the reason he
took this text and clunE TO Il Was
not for any particular reason, but
mostly Just because he wanted to
His subject Sunday morning was.
"The opportunity every body has OF
being something in the world sun
day night. The opportunity every
body has to do good TO others and
last night, "The opportunity every
body has OF doing good for God. !"
After the usual announcements, he
invited everybody to come to the
meeting, business men, professional
men, and all The weather. don't
worry over that. God will take care.
Don't worry. there are three things
We worry over. first. things we
can't help: second. things that never
happened and third, things that are
better as they are, though we cant
see IL at the time. He said big crowds
do not always produce the greatest
results and that some of his most
effective sermons had been preached
to rained out crowds. At Monroe, La.
not long since his first sermon was
preached to a full house. but the next
was to a crowd of s or 8 on account
of the rain. Two men, revenue Off
GERS, came In out of the rain. The
preacher shook hands with them af-
ter the service and invited them back.
The men, who were great sinners.
became interested. came back and
brought a crowd with them. They
were happily converted and are now
Christians. God can work whether
there is a big crowd or not. OFTEN
people do not appreciate boy or
girl, or a rainy day, the possibilities
of both are unlimited.
God will do what is best for us,
we may not understand what is best
for us but God does. He told of
good christian womans asking why
God allowed her to be crippled up
with rheumatism; then Of dO5out
christian man who asked why God
permitted his house and all to be
burned Why does God do these
things? We don't know, it is his way
and is best for us. What is best for
us is not always wealth and station
in life. He told how sugar was re-
fined. taking it from the cane juice
to the white crystals. How 1t came
through the mills and the fires and
heat and finally through the cruclble
of bones. bat emerged as white as
snow SO with the christians, they
were often prosecuted and sorely
tried. but what Is best for a man is
what makes him christian. though
1t be sickness. sorrows, toll, shad-
ows and finally death.
The greatest good any man can
do for another Is To lead him 10 God.
One of the greatest pleasures Is to
