for our virtue or notoriety for our zeal but at the came time it is a sin to be always seeking to hide that which God has bestowed upon us for the good of others A Christian Is not to be a village in the valley but a city set on a hlli he is not to be a candle under a bushel but a candlestick giving light to all Retirement may be lovely in its season and to hide oneself may be modest but the hiding of Christ in us can never be justified and the keeping back of truth that is precious to ourselves is a sin against others and an offence against God If you ore retiring disposi tion and a nervous temperament take core that you do not too much Indulge this trembling pro pensity lest you be useless to the cause of Christ Seek in the name of Him that was not ashamed of you to do some little violence to your feelings and tell others what Christ has told to you and has for you If you cannot speak with the trumpet voice then speak in the still small voice but speak If the pulpit cannot be your tribune and the press may not carry your words on its wings yet say with Peter and John Silver gold havo I none but such as I have give I unto you By Sychars well talk to the Sa maritan woman If you cannot preach a sermon on the moun tain top Utter the praises of Christ in the house If not in tho temple in the field if not upon the exchange In midst of your own folks if not In the marketplace From the hidden springs within your soul let the refresh ing rivulets flow to thirsty ones though you have no great flow ing fountain to carry your tes timony Hide not your talent trade with it and you will bring in good interest for your Lord and your Master To for God will be refreshing to your self cheering for saints of like fears useful to the sinner to find his way and honoring
