The world has no use for gutter.
We all llko 10 see man who sticks by
the thing he starts until Il Is nnlshed-
who determines 20 hight until the bat
tie Is won. All hail to the man who
stays by the Job. The fellow who keeps
plugging in season and out, when the
sun shines and when Il don't. through
thick and thin, summer and winter,
prosperity and depression; who does a
days work regardless " the size Of the
pay en-, ,elope and keeps at 10 though
others about him lay down. What
though he does not secure Immediately
the large opportunity which he feels
, persistent effort will bring him; yea,
what though that larger position never
materiallzes; he still has that inner
consciousness OF having played the
game square and having at least striven
70 make the most of his opportunity.
"le shall seek me and ye shall ind
me when ye shall search for ne with
all your heart" When we take a posi-
ton in a manufacturing establishment
or Office and report for duty each day
we do II because we believe in the
firms ability TO produce our check
when pay day arrives. Is Il possible
that we will work for a month FOR a
business house with no other guaran-
tee OF our pay than the houses prom
ise, and yet fail TO apply Tie same trust
to the promises Of our Heavenly Faith
er? Can we not believe GOd2 What
| though we may not yet have experi-
enced the fullness Of His power In our
lives, are we going TO qult2 We grow
B In grace and spiritual power just as
our salary check grows When we
work hard for the firm the firm works
harder for us. Can we expect God "a
J declare dividends on stock we are toe
- lazy or Indifferent 10 possess2 The
< scripture "ask and ye shall receive
seek and ye shall ind" takes on {
new and deeper meaning when we un
derstand that 10 really means keep OF
e. asking and you'll keep on receiving
/. keep on seeking and you'll keep OF
{ finding. -" Are we persistent enougl
/ TO keep on plugging away until falti
turns to glad fruition?" God wants
workers who viii follow Him through
earth and hell. The promise is only q
q those who are faithful unto death.
!. zone with God Is a multitude" Do w
n believe that2 Then stay with the tasl
that God has allotted US. Persevere un
; tll every demon OF doubt and 6istrus
Is dead. Fight on despite setbacks an
defeat and God will crown the effor
n with something better than success.
