Seeing God’s Prospering Hand

By W. A. S.

A BROTHER—a Dutch farmer from the Orange Free State—had borne testimony to the blessedness of the paying. “Ever since I began paying the tithe,” he said, “God has blessed me abundantly.”
As he sat down another brother stood up. “One thing,” he said, “I want to add to what our brother has just said. I happen to know that one of this brother’s farm laborers—not of our faith—said not long ago that he was going to begin paying tithe himself. ‘I have been watching Mr. ——,’ he said, ‘and I see that God prospers him. When sheep and cattle diseases are about, he does not lose his sheep and cattle as the rest of us do. God surely protects him. I mean to pay tithe, too.’”
The brother suggested that while this man’s motive was not a high one, yet his was a good testimony to the fact that the prospering hand of God was visible to the outside observer.
