Excerpt from Quiet Talks on Personal ProblemsLife is a school. There are hard sums to do; new words to learn, and new meanings of words; knotty problems to tug at and solve, solve partly and then a little more. Knowing some gives zest for more; and always there is more, and never an end. Dear Doctor Babcock sang, Some day the bell will sound, [some day my heart will bound, As, With a shout That school is out And lessons done, I homeward run.Yet the day he thought of, while it brought rare delight in knowing and resting, was simply his entering upon an after-course in the Teacher's own room.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Quiet Talks About the Crowned ChristCrowning the Christ is an intensely practical thing, whether taken in the personal sense or the world sense. He has been crowned in the upper world. With wondrous patience and gracious ness He pleads for the personal crowning in our lives. Some day - no one knows just when He will begin to act as the crowned Christ in all the affairs of our earth.The initiative of all action to-day on the earth is in man's hands. Some day the initiative of governing action on the earth will be in the hands of the crowned Christ, even while the personal initiative of each man's life will still be in his own hands.God is intensely practical. Jesus was never concerned about speculation nor mere discussion; He was too intent on helping people. The Bible is wholly a practical book. It is concerned only with helping us. It does not tell us all the truth there is; we shall be constantly learning more in the future life. But it does tell us all we need to know now. And its purpose in telling us what it does is wholly practical, - to urge us to right choice, and to lives that square with the choice. This is the purpose that decided just what truth should be told in the Book.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
