WITHOUT CAREFULNESS.
" Casting all your care upon Him; for Ha caretfc for you."—l Peter v. 7. Casting all, yea, all your careNot a Little here and there: \ '. Not to betr them while you can, ' As if that were God's own plan; Then, when sinking, look to Him, With the eye of faith so dim 1 But, as trials, troubles come, Boiling back on Him the sum, Who hath promised to sustain . - Every burden, every pain. Ev"n the smallest He will bear : Trust Him, then, with every care, "Woll He knows a litt'o thing Has the power to pierce and sting, And how little worries wear, For'fHe numbers every hair." And" He careth," oh, how sweet J , . leave thy burden at Bis feet. None can stay His mighty hand: • All things yield to His command. All mast work His gracious will: Then, faint heart, rest, and be still; - Do not start wich sudden fear, With thy mighty Helper near. . ; As if,He could e'er forgst, And.th 7 needs should not be met! Trust His love to meet thy lack. Never, never, looking back ! He who made thee knows thee well. Peaceful, in His presence dwell. And one day thine eyes shall see ' How all things have wrought for ihee. Sweet from bitter, good from ill, "Working out thy Father's will: Cast on Him, then, all thy care, . ' Who hath promised all to bear ! Maria A. West. Constantinople Best, January, ISS4-
