It is a like a big school.

You know, it is like a big school—you say to one—That is your little bit, to another—That is yours. There is always the lazy child and there is always the one who will work; again, the one who can be very busy when the mood takes her and the one who thinks tomorrow will do just as well. Children in a school—only, in regard to life, it is a bigger and more important thing altogether.

We sometimes wonder that an extra burden seems to be put on one who does not appear to have sufficient strength to carry it. We all feel like that sometimes—but, in God's name, we find the strength to carry us through.

We must all remember that we are chosen stewards in the household of the King and because that post of honour is ours, then, not only will the King see to it that we have the tools with which to work, but also the strength to make that which appears so difficult, possible to accomplish.
