o' life: the heart flutters: the nerves
ti-ill: the cheek flushes: the eye opens;
btc- sits up!
We see in this subject Dorcas the
Cciple. Dorcas the benefactress. Dor
ra the lamented, Dorcas the resur
ri .-ted.
If I had not seen that word disciple in
my text. I would have known this wom
an was a Christian. Such music as that
never came from a heart which is not
iiiorded and strung by Divine grace.
JJefore I show you the needlework of
this woman I want to show you her re
generated heart, the source of a pure
Lfi and all Christian charities. I wish
that the wives and mothers and daugh
ters and sisters of all the earth would
imitate Dorcas in her discipleship. De
fore you cross the threshold of the hos
' pital. before you enter upon the tempta
tions and trials of to-morrow. I charge
von. in the name of God, and by the tur
moil and tumult of the judgment day,
oh. woman! that you attend to the first,
last and greatest duty of your life the
seeking for God and being at peace with
Him. When the trumpet shall sound
there will !e an uproar, and a wreck of
mountain and continent, and no human
arm can help you. Amidst the rising
"irVie dead, and amidst the boiling of
yf -er scs, and amidst the Hve, leaping
tnundersof the flying heavens, calm
and placid will be every woman's heart
who hath put her trust in Christ: calm
notwithstanding all the tumult, as
though the fire in the heavens were
only the glidings of an autumnal sun
Ret, as though the peal of the trumpet
were only the harmony of an orchestra,
as though the awful "voices of the sky
were but a group of friends bursting
through a gateway at eventime with
laughter, and shouting '-Dorcas, the
disciple!" Would God that every IMarv
and every Martha would this dav sit
down at the feet of Jesus!
Further, we see Dorcas the benefac
tress. History has told the story of the
crown; the epic poet has sung" of the
sword; the pastoral poet, with his verses
full of the redolence of clover tops, and
a rustle with the silk of the corn, has
sung the prai-.es of the plow. I tell you
the praises of the needle. From theYj;
leaf role prepared in the garden of
Eden to the last stitch taken on the
garment for the poor, the needle has
wrought wonders of kindness, generos
ity and benefaction. It adorned the
girdle of Jie high priest: it fashioned
the curtains in the ancient tabernacle:
it cushioned the chariots of King Sol
omon; it provided the robes of Queen
Elizabeth; and in high places and in
low places, by the fire of the pioneer's
back log and under the fla--h of the
chandelier, everywhere, it has clothed
nakedness. It has preached the Gos
pel, it has overcome hosts of penury and
want with the war cry of '"Stitch,
stitch, stitch!"' The operatives have
found a livelihood by it. and through it
the mansions of the emplover have been
constructed.
Amidst the greatest triumphs in all
ages and lands I set down the conquests
of the needle. I admit its crimes: I ad
mit its cruelties. It has had more mar
tyrs thu the fire; it has punctured the
eye: it has pierced the side: it has
struck weakness into the lungs; it has
sent madness into the brain; it has filled
the potter's field; it has pitched whole
armies of the .suffering into crime and
wretchedness and woe. Hut now that I
am talking of Dorcas and her ministries
to the poor 1 shall speak only of the
charities of the needle. This woman
was a representative of all thoe women
who make garments for the destitute,
who knit socks for the barefooted, who
prepare bandages for the lacerated, who
fix up boxes of clothing for missio. ries,
who go into the asylums of the suffering
and destitute, bearing that Gospel which
is sight for the blind, and hearing for
the deaf, and which makes the lame
man leap like a hart, and brings the
dead to life, immortal health bounding
in their pulse-..
What a contrast between the practical
benevolence of thi woman and a great
deal of the charity of to-day! This wom
an did not spend her time idly plan
ning how the poor of your city of Joppa
were to be relieved: she took her needle
and relieved t'iem. She was not like
thoe persons who sympathize with im
aginary sorrows, and go out in the
street and laugh at the boy who has
up-et his basket of cold victuals, or like
that charity which makes a rousing
speech on the lenevolent platform, and
goes out to kick the beggar from the
step, crying; "Ilu-h your miserable
howling!1 The sufferers of the world
want not o much theology as practice:
not so much tears as dollars: not so much
kind wishes as loaves of bread, not so
much "God bless yous!" as jackets and
frocks. 1 will put one earnest Chris
tian man. hard-working, against five
thousand mere theorists on the subject
of charity. There are a great many who
have fine ideas about church architect
ure who never in their life helped to
build a church. There are men who can
give you the history of Duddhism and
Mahotnmedanism who never spent a
farthing for their evangelization. There
are women who talk beautifully about
the suffering of the world, who never
had the courage, like Dorcas, to take the
needle and assault it.
I am glad that there is not a page of
the world's history which is not a record
of female benevolence. God says to all
lands and people, come now and hear
the widow's mite rattle down into the
poor Ihjx. The Princess of Conti sold
all her jewels that she might help the
famine stricken. Queen Dlanche, the
wife of Louis VIII. of France, hearing
that there were some persons .unjustly
incarcerated in the prisons, went out
amidst the rabble and took a stick and
struck the door as a signal that they
might all strike it. and down went the
prison dooi and out came the prisoners.
Queen Maud, the wife of Henry L. went
down amidst the poor and washed their
sores and administered to them cordials.
Mrs. P.etson. at Matagorda, appeared on
the battle-field while the missiles of
death were flying around, and cared
for the wounded. Is there a man or
woman who has ever heard of the civil
war in America who has not heard of
the women of the sanitary and Christian
commission, or the fact that, before the
smoke had gone up from Gettysburg and
South Mountain, the women of the North
met the women of the South on the bat
tlefield, forgetting all their animosities
while they bound up the wounded, and
closed the eyes of the slain. Dorcas,
the benefactress.
I come now to speak of Dorcas the la
mented. When death struck down that
good woman, oh. how much sorrow there
was in this town of Joppa! I suppose
there were women here with lamer
fortunes; women, perhaps, with hand
somer faces: but there was no grief at
their departure like this at the death of
Dorcas. There was not more turmoil
and upturning in the Mediterranean sea.
dashing against the wharves of this sea
port, than there were surgings to and
fro of grief because Dorcas was dead.
There are a great many who go out of
life and are unmissed. There may be a
very large funeral; there may Iks a great
many carriages and a plumed hearse;
there may be high branding eulogiums;
the bell may toll at the cemetery gate;
there may lie a very fine marble shaft
reared over the resting place: but the
whole thing may be a falsehood and a
sham. The Church of God has lost noth
ing, the world has lost nothing. It is
only a nuisance abated: it is only a
grumbler ceasing to find fault; it is only
an idler stopped yawning: it is only a
dissipated fashionable parted from hi
wine cellar; while, on the other hand,
no useful Christian leaves this world
without being missed. The Church of
God cries out like the prophet: "Howl,
fir tree, for the cedar has fallen."
Widowhood comes and shows the gar
ments which the departed had made.
Orphans arc lifted up to look into the
calm face of the sleeping benefactress.
Reclaimed vagrancy comes and kisses
the cold brow of her who charmed it
away from sin. and all through tho
streets of Joppa there is mourning
mourning because Dorcas is dead.
When Josephine of France was car
ried out to her grave, there were a great
iiny men and women of pomp ana
j pride and position that went out after
her: but I am most affected by the story
of history that on that day there were
ten thousand of the poor of France who
followed her coffin, weeping and wailing
. until the air rang again, because, when
j thev lost .loephine. they lost their last
I earthly friend. Oh. who would not
rather have such obsequies than all the
I tears that were ever poured in the
j lachrymals that have been exhumed
from ancient cities. There miy be no
mass for the dead; thero may le no
costlv sarcophagus; there may le no
elalwrate mausoleum: but in the damp
cellars of the city, and through the
lonely huts of the mountain glen, the-e
will be mourning, mourning, mourning,
because Dorcas is dead, "lllessed are
the dead who die in the Lord; they rest
from their labors, and their works do
follow them."
I speak to you of Dorcas, the resur
rected. The apostle came to where she
was. and said: "Arise: and she sat up!"
In what a short compass the great writer
put that "She sat up!"' Oh, what a
time there must have been around this
town, when the apostle brought her out
among her old friends! How the tears of
joy must have started! What clapping of
hands there must have been! What sing
ing! What laughter! Sound it all through
that lane! Shout it down that dark alley!
Let all Joppa hear it! Dorcas is resur
rected! You and I have seen the same thing
many a time: not a dead oody resusci
tated, but the deceased coming up again
after death in the good accomplished.
If a man labors up to fifty years of age.
serving God. and then dies, we are apt
to think that his earthly work is done.
No. His influence on earth will con
tinue till the world ceases. Services
rendered for Christ never stop. A Chris
tian woman toils for the upbuilding of a
church through many anxieties, through
many self-denials, with prayers and
tears, and then she dies. It is fifteen
years since she went away. Now the
spirit of God descends upon that church;
hundreds of souls stand up and confess
the faith of Christ. Has that Christian
woman, who went away fifteen years
ago. nothing to do with these things? I
see the flowering out of her noble heart.
I hear the echo of her footsteps in all
the songs over sins forgiven, in all the
prosperity of the church. The good
that seemed to be buried has come up
again. Dorcas is resurrected.
After awhile all these womanly friends
of Christ will put down their needle for
ever. After making garments for oth
ers, some one will make a garment for
them: the last robe we ever wear the
robe for the grave. You will have heard
the last cry of pain. You will have wit
nessed the last orphanage. You will
have come in worn out from your last
round of mercy. I do not know where
you will sleep, nor what your epitaph
will be. but there will be a lamp burn
ing at that tomb and an angeljf God
guarding it. and through all the long
night no rude foot will disturb the dust.
Sleep on, sleep on! Soft bed. pleasant
shadows, undisturbed repose! Sleep on!
A-Ieep in Jesu-! llles-ed sle-p!
From which none ever wake to weep.
Then one day there will be a sky rend
ing, and a whirl of wheels, and the fiah
of a pageant: armies marching, chains
clanking, banners waving, thunders
booming, and that Christian woman will
arise from the dust, and she will le sud
denly surrounded surrounded by the
wanderers of the street whom she re
claimed, surrounded by the wounded
souls to whom she had administered!
Daughter of God. so strangely surround
