We asso- ciate weariness with trouble, not rest. | And yet I have noticed that the rest- | less hearts are not the hearts that are | free from trouble and care. Many times I have been among people with whom everything scemed to be going easily |and smoothly, and vet observed that there was an absence of that peace | of mind and contentment that make for [rest. On the other hand, I have mar- | veled at the sweet peace and content- ment which I have sometimes found to possess the hearts of those who were borne down with trouble and burdens. After all, it is not freedom from trou- ble that brings rest. The happlest and most_contented people are not the peo- ple whose days are mostly days of sun- shine and who have the easiest time in | life.

This is not to imply that the troubles f life are to be lightly waved aside. It is a question of adjustment. Of course, to adjust ourselves to our troubles in | such a manner as to maintain a restful | state in spite of them, there must be trust and confidence. We must believe | in God and in the goodness and wisdom | of His providence. Tt is the adjustment | of such faith that makes possible rest in trouble. ho Do You Know the Six Rules of Furniture Arrangement? They are very important.
