WE need never be anxious about our mission. We need never perplex ourselves in the least in trying to know what God wants us to do, what place he wants us to fill. Our whole duty is to do well the work of the present hour. There are some people who waste entire years wondering what God would have them do, and expecting to have their life-work pointed out to them. but that is not the divine way. If you want to know God’s plan for you, do God’s will each day; that is God’s plan for you to-day. If he has a wider sphere, a larger place for you, he will bring you to it at the right time, and then that will be God’s plan for you and your mission.

“Our lives we cut on a curious plan,
Shaping them, as it were, for man;
But God, with better art than we
Shapes them for eternity.”
