“Because the Master is not here, |
with His own hand today,
To feed the hungry multitudea who
throng life’s busy way,
He gives the task to you and me; He
bids us hear their cry:
He says that if we turn from them
we also pass Him by.
Our eyes are blind, we only see an ,
outcast at our door:
Yet said He not Himself that they
who feed and clothe his poor
Give unto Him? Thenjday by day for
such a royal guest.
Shall wo not briug with willing
hanJs our choicest and our best?"
To extend the kingdom of God we |
need faith, prayer,men and money. The |
giving of money is as truly an express- j
ion of worshipful, loyalty as the mak- i
ing of prayer it is an expression of con
secration, We each have our talents,
not all have money. The preacher gives j
bis voice and time, the business man
his money that some one may teach in
our mission work, those who can leach
give themselves, all have some part to
perform to build up strong Christian
characters.
February 27 was set apart for the
presentation of the doctrine
of tithing to the membership of
the socitv and the church, at the last
annual meeting of Woman’s Board of
Home Missions.
Let this he a day of heart searching
and reckoning with the Lord-a time,
not only for “a readiness to will” hut
the doing of it.”
We need to cultivte the spirit of benovo-
lenco and can do that only by benevo
lent acts. It is a great privilege that
with !]the first of our induitry and
economy wo may promote the best
things of life that we may trinsforrm
the sordid dust of material things into
the shining beauty of redeemed nrin
hood and womanhood, und turn coin in
to character.
The progress of the kingdom of God
Is hindered because of the lack,of syste
matic going, the right use of money
and the power to get money is the great
duty and privilege of men in this great
commercial age.
Every one that can should rea I the
February number of Our Hum*, tin
tithe is clearly brought out as our dutj
and a means of grace.
Our report goes off for the fiscs' year
1909, 1910 by March 10, if there are
any who have not mot their obligations
let them baitoa t i do it, the failure of
only one in each one of our socleti Ji-
meanes the clothing otona of our schools
no one could have a p irt in such a great
loss. Can we report as many dollars a >
wo have members? This will place u.-
on the “honer roll.” Can we alford to
be elsewhere.
NATIVE AFRICAN TALKS IN
INTERESTING WAY OF AFRICA
D. D. Lewis, of Soudan, Afr>ca, to
be more exact, from Lewisville, Soud
an, Africa, was in Milledgeville last
Friday and w.iile here talked interest-
.ngly of that far away country. Lewis
is an educated Africa", receiving his
education in this country and he has
I been trained for a minister,but he is do-
| mg something more than that. He sent
a few cotton seed in a letter three years
ago and last year his colony raised five
j bales of cotton with only one hoe and
, some sticks. This year he has sent 78
! hoes and half dozen plowstocks.
j His people are yet virtually in the
wild state and they sxcriiica their chil
dren to the civco lil s. I, >wi< ran away
from his people when he was eighteen
years to escape being punished for
I tearing a girdle cloth accidently, the
1 penalty of which was cutting iff a leg
He was found by white hunters and
I brought to America 12 years ago and
1 educated. He has spent three years in
Africa since that time and is going
back in June.
