DO A LITTLE.

Many a Christian’s peace and usefulness are destroyed because he is not willing to do little things. He wants to speak and pray well, eloquently, edifyingly, and because he cannot do so, he is silent. If he cannot do some great thing, he will do nothing at all, so he hardly ever attends the Sabbath-school or the social-meeting. This ought not to be so. If all were willing to add a little to the Sabbath-school and prayer-meeting, it would add to their interest, and also to the strength of the church. If all were willing to be small, to make simple prayers and speeches when they could do no better, their humble efforts would be just as acceptable to God as long prayers and eloquent testimonies. Happy is the man or woman who is willing to be the servant of all, to do anything that will serve to advance the cause of Christ.—Sel.
