Stotesbury took for his text and subject, "Meisel are they that mourn for they shall be corn- ferted," He first spoke of the knowledge of sorrow by the ex- perience of bereavement and Christ's comfort at such times. Sorrow does something for us, it gives us new sense of God's presence, .and not until we have known borrow can we rightly understand something of the suf- ferings that come to others and lie capable of sympathizing with hem. But Christ's . mourning went much further, and deeper than his kind of sorrow. His was a' sorrow reaching out to the masses of mankind in their sin and folly and misery and needless suffer- ng.i. His was a creative love at. death's grips' with evil taking the burden to his own heart and on to the Cross.

She knew her Lord's life on earth, from child - It is this sensitiveness to the great sin and suffering of. man- kind, the terrible wastage of manhood and womanhood, and yes, of youth that is going on in our times. It is said that "sorrow is affection turned to pain but it is still affection."
