The Bethany home is one of the most sacred spots in Palestine. There it was that Jesus found a shelter of love amid enmities and antagonisms. There his heart found rest after being wearied and hurt by the unbelief, criticism, and hypocrisy of the rulers.

There were two sisters in that home. Both of them loved the Master, and both were dear to him. Each showed ...

Gentleness is a beautiful quality. It is essential to all true character. Nobody admires ungentleness in man or woman. When a man is harsh, cold, unfeeling, unkind, and rude and rough in his manner, no one speaks of his fine spirit.

No man is truly great who is not gentle. Courage and ...

GOD wants our lives to be bright. He wants them to shine like lamps in the darkness. The world needs nothing so much as light — not light blazing in the far-off sky, but light pouring out softly, low down, close to the earth, from human lives which have been kindled at the heart of God. The aim of the gospel of Christ is to make human lives bright with the brightness of God's own holiness. There is a word in one of St. Paul's letters which puts this truth in the form of an exhortation. "Be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind." The word "transformed" suggests a change from dulness ...

Forgetting those things which are behind. — Phil. 3:13 WE have here St. Paul's plan of life — progress by forgetting, by letting go, the things that are past. "Forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before, I press on toward the goal."

Probably most of us have done things we would give much to leave behind, to blot out from memory, to cut altogether loose from, to bury in...
