Ask yourself this question: “If
everybody treated the church as I
do, what would become of it?
Did you ever go to Put-off-Town,
Where the houses are old and tum
ble-down,
And everything tarries and every
thing drags,
With dirty streets and people in rags?
On the street of Slow lives Old Man
Wait,
And his two little boys named Linger
and Late,
With unclean hands, tousled hair,
And a naughty little sister named
Don’t Care.
Did you ever go to Put-off-Town
To play with the little girls, Fret
and Frown,
Or go to the home of Old Man Wait,
And whistle for his boys to come to
the gate?
To play all day in Tarry street,
Leaving your errands for other
feet;
To stop, or shrink, or linger, or
frown—
Is the nearest way to this old Town.
We are taught to pray, “Thy king
dom come.” But we must do more
than pray for it. We must work for
it. It is well to pray for our chil
dren, but we must do more. It is
fine to pray for our Church, but We
must do more. You will hear some
member praying to the Lord from
an almost empty church: “0 Lord,
go out into the highways and hedges
I and compel them to come in.” But
that is what he told us to do. We
must co-operate with God in the
answering of our prayers.
How foolish it would be for me to
ask God for physical health and
then gormandize upon food that I
knew did not agree with me. Yet
there are many people praying for
growth in grace, praying to be
made more saintly, yet they leave off
the foods by which the soul grows.
Doing things that they know does
not agree with them spiritually. If
I ask for spiritual health, in order
for that prayer to be answered I
must obey the laws of health.
Some of God’s best people are
sick this week. Let’s remember them
in our prayers.
We shall expect to see you in ]
your place Sunday.
