she must be at this very moment as
she looks down from heaven above
| dreams. Her Christian life was not
made up of reading few verses
from the Bible, morning or evening,
and forgetting all about it during
! the day. It did not consist of going
to church on Sunday and sitting
through service. Rather her life
was like the branches of the vine.
| Christ said II am the true vine,
abide with me and l abide in you. =
This was Aunt Mattie's life, which
needs no eulogy. Her life was a
| great sermon and speaks for itself
