"Friend Abra­ ham," she said, "thee must not think thee stands alone. Back where I live we are all praying for thee. The hearts of all the people are behind thee and thee cannot fail. The Lord .has ap­ pointed thee, the Lord will sus­ tain thee and the people -love thee. Yea as no other .man ever loved before, does this people love thee. Take comfort, friend Abraham. God is with thee. The people are behind thee." Those who were present and witnessed the scene remembered for long years afterwards the re­ lief and glad radiance that came to Lincoln’s face. The great man straightened his tired body, and with tears in his voice, as well as his eyes, he said: "You have given a cup of water to a very thirsty and grateful man. You have done me a great kindness.” John Watson, better known to i the reading public as Ian Mac- Laren, was thirty-five . years minister of a large congregation in Liverpool. He became inter- | nationally known as a writer (and lecturer. When he died some »years ago, it >was disclosed that j lie had carried around with him for many years a letter which a i member of his congregation had written to him, telling of the great help he had been to her in her trying life. It was a i source of encouragement to him A Cup Of Water Covers Ohe-Tliird More Acreage Exeter(Snell Bros. Garage)Phone 443-J A UH Foor Reel Bars Insure Clean Raking to know that his ministry meant much at least to one person. It is not weakness that -makes people long for appreciation and kindness. The strongest men and women who have ever lived have responded to it and many could not -have carried on had it been withheld. Reference has been made to John Watson. He used to tell, with dramatic skill, the story of Paul’s journey to Rome where he was to be tried and finally put to death. One of the passion­ ate longings of his heart had been to visit Rome, was about to not in the way and hoped ‘for. the city not as triumphant missionary, one accused of sedition, a prison­ er in bonds and in disgrace. After a long journey of more than a hundred miles, Paul came with his guard to the Appii Forum; lonely and seemingly friendless he looked around him at the tradesmen, labourers and soldiers assembled there — each man concerned about his own affairs, a little interested in a prisoner headed for Rome and probably destined foi* execution. He was no longer a young man and he had known suffering, persecution and hardships. He was weary and hardly himself, with blighted hopes and nerves unstrung. Dr. Watson suggested that it was probably the lowest moment in Paul’s life. It was all so dif­ ferent from what he had ,hoped for. There was no familiar face to smile at him; no one to take his hand in a friendly grasp. In tones they said: Rome name i they thank God fori thy coming. Thirty-three miles these meti had I trudged to do Paul tills kind­ ness and to strengthen him in «the hour of his heed. No wonder that the c o jnpanion of Paul wrote: "When the b r e t h r e n ’heard of us, they came to meet i us as far as Appii Forum, and the three taverns; whom when Paul saw, he thanked ,God, and took courage." (Acts 28:15), It was a gracious action HI the part of these men and on the part of the company of be­ lievers who sent would like to have about that meeting, first suggested that and welcomed. It is /our privelege to show kindness and encouragement to all wo meet along life’s highway; i to give, as Abraham said, a cup l of water to those who need it. | This is not a trivial thing, it I may be more important than I anything else we are doing. Our quotation today is by the . Greek philosopher, Epictetus: “If ,a man is unhappy it must be his | own fault, for God made all men ’to be happy," ■Now his wish fulfilled but had expected was to enter be he He an honoured and but as •of respect and tenderness "The brethren in salute thee, Paul, in the of the Lord Jesus, and 011 them.
