WEEK OF PRAYER.
A week in Oct. day 15 to 22 has
been set apart by the proper au¬
thorities, as the time to be observ¬
ed, by the Home Mission Society,
for special prayer and thanks giv¬
ing. It will be a good time for us
from now on to think of the many
blessings God has bestowed upon
us. May each one look back over
the past year, and recount the
many blessings that have come to
us from God, and may each show
her gratitude by putting in the
Lord’s treasury a sum that will
honor His love.
It has been said,
"Some can go,
Most can give,
All can pray.
If all faithfully prayed for Mis¬
sion work and workers more would
give and more would go.’’
2 COR. CHAPS. 8, 9.
In these two chapters we are
taught the grand motives and prin¬
ciples of Christian giving, and even
paradoxed on giving. These ex¬
amples were given by the Macedo¬
nians, they are as follows:
1st. They gave out of the abun¬
dance of their poverty, not out of
plentitude of their wealth.
2nd. Their willingness e x
ceeded their ability instead of their
ability their willingness.
3rd They were urgent to be al¬
lowed to give rather than reluctant
while those who received the gilt
were reluctant to take it, knowing
how deep their poverty.
4th. They make the greater
gift first (of themselves) and the
latter gift was less (their money.)
Usually peoplo give the least they
can to begin with, and have to be
educated up to giving themselves
at the very last.
5th. Iu these chapters value of
gitts is reckoned, not by the
amount given, but by the deg»ee
of willingness and cheerfulness
exhibited.
6th. We are taught that in
crease comes 11 ot by keeping but
by giving; that the way to get
more is to give more, and the way
to lose, is to keep. of
7th. And the crowning lesson
all is that they regarded giving, not
a privation to be evaded and avoid¬
ed, but as a privilege and a bless¬
ing to be coveted and cultivated.
Can we do better than to follow
glorious examples?
