We shall have to give account to God for all that he sends to us by the mystic hands of the passing hours, and which we refuse or neglect to receive.

"They are wasted and are added to our debt." The real problem of living, therefore, is how to take what the hours bring.

He who does this, will live nobly and faithfully, and will fulfil God's plan for his life.

The difference in men is not in the opportunities that come to them, but in their use of their opportunities.

Many people who fail to make much of their life charge their failure to the lack of opportunities.
