Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.—GAL. vi, 2.

When no low thoughts of self intrude,

Angels adjust our rights;

And love that seeks its selfish good

Dies in its own delights.

How much we take, how little give—

Yet every life is meant

To help all lives: each man should live

For all men's betterment.

ALICE CARY.

But now God has so ordained it that we should learn to bear one another's burdens, for there is no one who has not some defect, no one without some burden, no one independent of others, no one wise enough of himself; but we ought to bear with one another, comfort one another, help, instruct, and advise one another.

THOMAS A-KEMPIS.

Try always to see clearly that right is right, and wrong is wrong. Remember, in speaking to any one you want to help, the more earnest and unconscious of self you are, the better you will help them. Probably the words you think most telling will affect them least, while those you think nothing of God will use for their good. Leave all results to God.
