00p PREFACE

PREFACE
The great Shepherd has made ample provision for His sheep — and His pastures are always fresh and green. But too many neglect the provision made for them — and are therefore . . .
weak in faith,
feeble in effort, and
uncomfortable in their lives. This little work is intended to attract the flock to the pastures which God has provided; it presents a portion of spiritual food for daily use — each calculated to . . .
inform the mind,
cheer the soul,
and regulate the life. In busy times like the present — brevity is important; and in such a season of temptation — spirituality is necessary. Reader . . .
turn every portion into prayer,
then meditate upon it, and then
endeavor to reduce the whole to practice. This is the way to enjoy peace, obtain blessings, and do good. May the Holy Spirit, who alone can render any work effectual — bless this little volume to thousands, and exalt the Savior through its feeble instrumentality!
