Picture of the Desert Saved Man Who
Was DISCOURAGED.

Body and soul he was tired-tired
out. He had reached the place where
he had lost all control of his
thoughts, and his mind travelled cease
lessly around ana around the circle
of his troubles. It was q circle, he
said bitterly to himself, for he could
not remember the beginning, and there
seemed no prospect of an end so long
as life lasted. He had grown up III

inheritance of difficult duties. He had
no opportunity to make friends, to
have good times" to conquer for him
self any portion of the knowledge, Wis.,
dom and skill which are the exhaust
less treasure the world holds in keep
ing for those who know how to seek.
He had no chance to grow. That was
the heart of his rebellion. To work
all ones life and have no more at the
end than at the beginniug-to have
even less, for once he had hope-could
there be failure more bitter? When he
had set his body and soul to work
delving for riches hid in the great
Rockies he had youth and dreamed
dreams-could there be realities more
Disappointing
Suddenly he lifted his head, listen
ing. He had not come to church to
listen. Long ago he had told himself
that church had nothing for him. He
had come merely for an hours physi-
cal rest, away from his bondage. So,
having no intention of listening, he
had lost the text. and this was what
he heard:
THE long days in the desert-not a
song to break the stiffness till the ears
echo with the endless silence. not a
leaf to refresh the sight that aches
with the quivering distance, day after
day nothing but rocks and sand and
silence, till 1t seemed he would go mad
with the loneliness of it.
And there was so much that he
longed to do! Out in the world there
was work, and within the man there
were powers crying out for opportuni-
ties. Out in the world was pitiful need,
and his heart was broken with the
/ longing to help; out in the world were
tasks and joys and opportunities,
wrongs to be righted and foes to be
conquered and kingdoms to be won,
and he was shut away in the desert.
'Ah, but that was only part of It'll
He was shut away in the desert with
God. Day by day the solemn silence
spoke to him with the voice of God;
night by night the unfai1ing stars
counseled him to patience and ODE
| dience. Week by week, for months,
the spirit of God worked upon him till
4 when, in the fullness of time, he went
out from the desert to rebuke a cor
rupt nation it was with his heart made
strong within him by the lessons of
/ the wilderness.
Dear friends, is not the lesson for
us today? There are few of us who
90 NOT sooner or later reach our deS-
ert, the place where we seem shut
away from all opportunity, all happi-
ness, all chance of growth. But no
soul was ever sent into the desert to
waste his life. He is sent instead to
win the highest Of all the wisdom of
/ the universe-he is sent there to meet
God. Pray God that not one of us,
having this supreme opportunity. shall
miss it and see only the desert. .
The man who was listening bowed
his head. He had his messages. T
