Wait.

"Oh, the drudgery of this everyday routine!" cries many a business man, and many a housekeeping woman. "To get through the day, and have the same round to traverse to-morrow!"
Yes, but how do you know what use the gracious Superintendent of your life is making of this humdrum, as you call it? A poor, blind mill-horse treads his beat, hour after hour, and it all seems to come to nothing. But the shaft he is turning is geared into others, and they into wheels, that in other rooms above him, far away beyond his hearing, are working out results that he could never comprehend. Wait until you see no longer through a glass darkly, and see the unknown bearings and connections of your life work with other generations and may be, with other worlds.
