  Page 25._] Philip, your conduct has distressed me exceedingly, said Lady Grange, laying her hand on the arm of her son, as they entered together the elegant apartment which had been fitted up as her boudoir. Lady Grange pressed her hand over her eyes, and a sigh, a very heavy sigh, burst from her bosom.

  But the twenties, with their attendant dreams and follies, were definitely past; just how long past no one knew exactly--Miss Philura never informed the curious on this point. Not that Miss Philura ever admitted such dubious thoughts to the select circle of her conscious reflections; more years ago than she cared to count she had grappled with her discontent, had thrust it resolutely out of sight, and on the top of it she had planted a big stone marked Resignation.

  I Does God Answer Christians Only? What might be the consensus of opinion found in a digest of all the testimonies of mankind cannot be surmised, but it did not appear that God was a respecter of persons through those years of prayer at the Baptist Temple. Such servants of God can offer prayer which avail much more than the frightened call of the worldly minded, egotistic, and selfish enemy of good people and good principles.

  The records of many praying churches probably show the same conditions. We must reassert that this fact is not recorded here to sustain any idea that the Temple is a sacred place above many other churches, cathedrals, and holy places, but to sustain the opinion that there are places more sacred than others to certain people, and that burdened hearts and minds would act wisely if they sought some such place when the answer to their prayer seems especially vital.

  The Moody Press 153 Institute Place Chicago I never remember, in all my Christian course, a period now (in March, 1895) of sixty-nine years and four months, that I ever SINCERELY and PATIENTLY sought to know the will of God by _the teaching of the Holy Ghost_, through the instrumentality of the _Word of God_, but I have been ALWAYS directed rightly. But if _honesty of heart_ and _uprightness before God_ were lacking, or if I did not _patiently_ wait upon God for instruction, or if I preferred _the counsel of my fellow men_ to the declarations of _the Word of the living God_, I made great mistakes.

  The verse _Remember not Lord_ &c. was introduced at the beginning of the same Service, as an Anthem to Psalm cxliii. And if the prophet David did think that the very meeting of men together and their accompanying one another to the House of God should make the bond of their love insoluble, and tie them in a league of inviolable amity (Ps. lv. 14); how much more may we judge it reasonable to hope that the like effects may grow _in each of the people towards other_, in them

My assurance has been more and more increasing that God will build for Himself a large Orphan-House in this city, to show to the inhabitants, and to all who may read and hear about it, what a blessed thing it is to trust in Him.--Of late I have seen, by God's grace, more and more, how entirely unworthy I am of being used by God for this glorious and honourable service, and I can only say, Lord here is thy servant, if thou art pleased to use such a one as I am.
