“Death shadowing us and ours”

This terrible War is taking toll of all our homes. A widow in France has had her four sons dispersed by the War to different parts of the field of battle. She says, without complaint, “I deliver my four children into the hands of God.”
One young wife, left with only small children, and whose husband has written despairingly from the Front, writes: — “There is so much sorrow in our separation that my heart is broken, but God has come to my aid and has calmed and encouraged me. Shall we meet again here below? God only knows. Oh, I suffer for those who live without God and without hope! For them the agony must be terrible, for I myself have moments when I feel that life would be insupportable were it not for the peace of the Saviour.”
