AN EXAMPLE OF SCRIPTURE STUDY.
A LADY missionary at Rangoon, Burma, writes to the Spelman Messenger, Atlanta, Ga., under date of October 10, 1893, as follows:— “We have just closed our Bible class of women to-day. The Lord has supplied health and strength so that we have been in session five months without missing a session. The women, too, nineteen in number, have been kept in good health for the most part, six of them not having missed a session. They studied Genesis, Exodus, Mark, Luke, Acts, Galatians, and Old Testament prophecies of Christ, with various topical lessons, and are able to give in a sentence the contents of each chapter of most of the books studied. But, better than this, their spiritual growth has been most marked and satisfactory. We praise the Lord for giving us what we asked of him before the women came,—a definite spiritual blessing for each one. The last day was spent in a prayer meeting in the morning and a praise meeting in the afternoon, when each told how the Lord had dealt with her, and praised him for his goodness.”
