Concentration Prevents Mistakes
In the United States Treasury at Washington a great many persons are employed to do nothing else but count money. Each person's work is carefully watched, and any mistakes made are charged up to the individuals who make them. It is stated that there is one lady in the department who has been thus engaged in counting money for twenty-five years, and she has not made a single mistake in all that long time. This is an excellent object lesson. Making mistakes is generally the result of wrong habits that grow out of a lack of concentrating the mind on what one is doing. The failures and mistakes of Christians come from the want of concentrating the mind upon the study of Christ and His Word.
