The DaffOdil.
Just little daffodil
In a pot beside me,
Closed so tightly in bud
Sight of cup denied me;
Then little quiyering sigh
Seemed the fair head shaking,
Peering closely l could see
That the bud was waking;
Slowly petals opened wide,
In the sunlight basking,
Lifting head for sunshine's kiss,
Without even asking.
Give me. pretty daffodil.
Secrets you are holding
Deep within your fragrant cup,
OF the buds unfolding.

he learned how TO treat other people,
John S:3l, 1895; Mark 1881. He
found out what God was trying to
do in the world, Luke 4:l2-19
1t is just so today. When you make
up your mind to. follow Jesus: just
so far as YOU know how, so long as
YOU live, then you have begun to be
a Christian. Anybody can do it who
wants to do it. Mat. 1924. 1t is the
same way you read book or play a
game. When you decide to do it, you
begin. You do not finish the book
all at once, but YOU are reading the
moment YOU begin. You do not fin
ish the game in a moment, but you
are playing it us soon as you start.
You do not finish being a Christian
I in short time. You will be at it all
your life and do it better the longer
YOU practice it, You are a Christian
in the making from the time you de-
eide to follow Jesus.
OF course if you follow Jesus you
cannot follow anyone else. He WI
be your only leader. Mat. 6:24. You
will get your orders from Him, John
1914: Mat. 7:24-27. You will turn
your back on every thing bad. |.
Thess. 5:2i-22. You will speak the
truth. Eph. 4:15. You will try to
be loving and helpful to everybody,
Eph. 1882; Mat. 25:34-40, 1G:42. No
one can follow Jesus and keep it a
secret. He says SO Himself, Mat.
5:l5-l6. He says that we must let
others know who our leader is. 1t
is called confcssing or acknowledge
ing Him, Mat. 10:31-32. 1t means that
if any one should say to you, Are
you a follower of Jesus?" you would
answer Immediately: "Yes, l love
him and try to obey and follow
| him"
