It is truly a day of small things, but the Lord is working. It gives me great confidence in a day such as this to remember "The Father loveth the Son" equally as much today as when those words were uttered, and it therefore pleases Him to work for His sake. This true and precious thought has been quite an inspiration to me.
We are apt to look around and within and feel, if we do not say, We cannot expect God to work; whereas if we look above at Him, we get quite different thoughts.
Occupation with Him leads to believing, hopeful occupation for Him.
