Text: And do find patience with self. It has been said, "Have we not piped all the day long and no one has answered?" Seekest thou, as was given from this illustration, for the gratifying of thy self? or seekest thou to be a channel of blessing to thy fellow man? They may not have answered as thou hast seen. They may have even shown contempt, as sneering, for thy patience and thy trouble. But somewhere the sun still shines; somewhere the day is done; for those that have grown weary, for those that have given up. The Lord abhorreth the quitter. And those temptations that come in such cases are the viewing of thine own self. Ye have hurt thyself and ye have again crucified thy Lord, when ye become impatient or speak harshly because someone has jeered or because someone has sneered or because someone has laughed at thy efforts! Leave the results, leave the giving of the crown, leave the glory, with the Lord! He will repay! Thou sayest in thine own heart that thou believest. Then merely, simply, act that way! In speech, in thought, in deed. Cayce (518-2)
