Yet so many,are so long in learning the lesson of waiting on God. Many are so discouraged they are ’'washing their nets or in other words, giving up.” This seems to be true in Temperance work. It seems so little is being,ac-: complished and their wdrkers./get discouraged. Jesus said to the fisher­ man" Go out and fish again.” It seem­ edfoolish to them being daytime and they fished at night, But they went. The results Were wonderful, great draughts of fishes* Christ tells us to fish again ahd if we do so, in His way instead of our own, things will be different and He wgl bless, be discouraged, He us,, and when Wbrk all; will selves to our work, take courage, have faith in God *nd we will be surprised at. what can be accomplished in God’s Hands.
