Active Fellowship

The love of brethren is not an empty affection. It is fruitfnl of activity. If the spirit of Christ dwells in you, it will be your delight to help and relieve afflicted brethren. You will early begin to seek out sufferers, and will find your way to the doors of the poor, the diseased, the widow, and the orphan. Above all, you will watch for occa-Bions for conveying some spiritual incitement or comfort to those who need it.
