 Later still, Louise Chandler Moulton extolled the month as a good one for an idyllic trip: "I hied me off to Already The month it was the month of May, And all along the pleasant way. The morning birds were mad with
 glee,
 And all the flowers sprang up to see As I went on to Arcady.'
 Bliss Carman evidently shared this opinion that May is good month for a blissful hike, when he wrote:
 Here's to the day when it is May And care as light as feather, When your little shoes and my big

ers did. but We must remember
that this movement OF life IN the
early church was a. movement In
which many disciples were involv-
ed Their gospel was one OF BROTH
erly love and service. Peter and
Stephen, and Paul and BarnabaS
were symbols Of this new move
ment Of religious lie.
One cannot contemplate this
early progress OF Christianity with
out feeling how essentially the
spirit Of God was guiding and lead
ing men IN the midst Of their trials
and their prosecutions. Paul al
never discouraged by opposition
nor ready to surrender at the first
sign OF trouble. The fact that he
was driven from one city made
him only all the more Jealous to
90 to another. He believed that the
spirit OF God could shape his course
AM his ministry as much through
adversely and through suffering rs
through apparent success.
Looking back over Paul's ca
rec one realizes how essentially
that faith In Gods providence and
In the ways In which that provi-
dence Yves manifested "; justI-
fled. II Paul had surrendered to
outward circumstances, II he had
refused to pursue his ministry at
the very risk OF his life, certainly
he never could have achieved
what actually was accomplished.
In times Of encouragement. In
times when we feel that all things
are against us and that everything
Is hopeless, 1t Is worth while to
remember Paul's profound belief
that God guides men and brings
them to the rich fulfillment OF
their mission.
