THE QUIET HOUR
How the months and years pass on
and are numbered with the days gone
kv. There seems to be no abiding
place where things on earth are con
cerned, It is true we stop for a
little while here, but when we con
rider life, we find that we are but
an atom of the throng that is rushing
onward, rushing toward what?
The end of life.
Some of us take a little longer time
to pass through this vale, than do
others. Some of us are a little
more strenuous than our fellows.
Some of them accomplish more than
we do. We are born with varied tal
ents and varied temperaments. Some
of us bear greater responsibilities it
is true, but activity strengthens the
arm, burden bearing hardens the
muscles and we are strengthened ac
cording to our achievements, rather
than worn out by them.
I love a life of activity, I love
the throng about me, 1 love the stren
uous existence and the people who
are doing something. And when1
one who lias spent His allotted years 1
in the performance of the duties of
life, who lias borne His full share of
the burdens, who can fairly look the |
world in the face and say, "I have
earned more than I have taken, I
1
have conscientiously done my duty,
J owe nothing for my existence, but
have paid my way with honest toil,” .
comes to the portals of eternity and ,
bids adieu to the restless, surging
i
throngs of earth, whether life be
the full of three score and ten, or
whether it be but a fraction of the
allotted years, I feel that it is well
ripened and ready for “the eternal
hope.”
^y life is a finished life when the
years have been well spent. There
is no definite achievement that we
must perform before we are fit for
the crown of eternal reward.
|
Our years, like the talents that are
giver, us. measure not the fullness of
|
existence.
We take the adding years as a
gracious gift, they bear the pleasures,!
the grandeurs of living and the self
conscious glories of existence, but
they also bring the toil, the anxiet
ies and the sorrows. These in
some lives seem to deepen as the '
years go by. Others appear to gain j
more of trust, more of the resignation
and quietness that of right belong to
the declining years.
Before us lies a letter full of the
heart aches of one who has been
disappointed, who has lived a losing
life, who has tasted of the dregs of
bitter failure.
One who deserved better than lie
received, a man at whom fate has
driven some of her sharpest darts
and the bitterness of unrealized
hopes, until the gloom of ages has
dark ned Ids soul.
'JTiis man, young in years, in the
prime of life, when vigor of human
energy ought to he driving him into
the battles of life with all the powers
of inspired manhood, a wreck upon,
the shores of time.
Listen to the cry of a soul that1
is passing through the valley of dis
tress. “I believe anyone is better
off dead than alive, it seems to me
this world is a very poor excuse for
the habitation and abode of man.
There is always something wrong.
Sickness, death, pestilence, wars,'
earthquakes, cyclones, murders and
many other curses that man and
probably no one else has any control
i
over. I often believe that the whole |
thing is just a happening and the 1
sooner it is all over the better for1
all of us.”
O.that heaven could send the angel
of resignation into the hearts of the
disappointed men and women of1
j
earth. We, who have faith, we, who
look beyond, we, who have been spar
ed somewhat in passing under the
rod, extend our hand in sympathy to
the ones who have felt the cutting of
the lash.
We have had our sorrows, but they
have been lightened by hopes. We
are not disappointed in humanity, na
i
Sure and our God. Each day has had
» portion of the burdens, but there 1
seems to have been no accumulation
of sorrows, until we are borne down
in a current of sadness that chills
mortal years and easts a doubt over
the ages of eternity.
I ask not the power of forgetting,
but. I earnestly seek the joys of res
ignation and forgiveness, and pray
that the charity of my soul shall re
move every sting of bitterness.
I want the calm that shall permit
me to see the pleasures of earth. 1
want the hope that shall anticipate
tiie glories of Heaven. I want to en
joy the human associations, the azure
sky, the beautiful valleys, the on-j
bowered homes and the glorious sun
sets.
I want to behold all these things,
not as one who is simply a passing
stranger, but as one who lias an hon-1
est heritage in them. Not as one
who dreads to give them up, lint as
one who regards them as but a pass
port to tin' raptures of Heaven.
