have witnessed it with me. I am
afraid that we do not turn out to our
churches like we should, in that we fail
to get those things that the ministers
have saved each week for us. What is
any better than going to church and
having our souls revived? It is just
like heaven to me.
Rev, T. T.. Griffith was all smiles to-

been brought to a test in measuring up

you and will help you is d mighty good
thing to smile over. Let us not pray
for easy lives, but let us pray to be
strong and useful.

When we have a tendency to become
angry with others when they disappoint
us, it might be well for us to investi-
gate our own condition and see if we
are not little disappointing sometimes
ourselves, and il we should do this, per-
haps we would judge Others a little
more charitably. We must remember
! that we all have our weak points and
the very thing that is strongest in our
selves may be the weakest in some one
else, and vice versa.
What we need to do is to make a
thorough search Of all things pertain
ing to our lives and the lives Of others
and find what may be the greatest OBJ
struction in the lives of those with
whom we come in contact, and if we
do this we may find that the thing that
seemed Disappointing in our fellows may
not be so bad after all. It may be only
a different viewpoint which he takes
from that of our own.
a 1t is well to remember that there are
many different temperaments among
people, in fact as many as there are
people and what may seem to disappoint
you in your brother may not be so bad
after all and if we make a careful sur
vey of the situation, we may find that
we are ourselves are as much to blame
as our neighbor.
We may be just as disappointing to
others as they seem to be to US, SO the
best policy to follow when we seem to
be disappointed is to just look the
whole problem squarely in the face and
perhaps when all is said and done we
will not be so badly disappointed after
all
