white lady, if she do come from the Norf. Like as not she'd turn up
her nose at your lilies. I'll 'low the little un was a brick, but
you'd better let his mother 'lone." This was Phil's advice.
But although Victoria Porter had a black skin, she had a tender,
loving heart, and she had pored over the Christ-life until she had
unconsciously imbibed its spirit. She was always yearning to comfort
some one. Later in the day she stood at the door of the white
mansion, holding her precious lilies. "They're for his mother," she
said to Dinah. "Tell her we chil'ens loved Frankie, and we're all
mighty sorry."
It was a simple message and a simple offering, and the giver was a
poor little black girl; but behind the gift was sincerity and love,
and the heart of the poor, sorrowing mother was touched and
comforted.
And Vic's lilies had a mission of which she knew not. They preached a
lovely sermon on the high privilege and duty of comforting others. We
may be poor, and very humble may be our station in life; but if we
try, we may make life brighter and sweeter to someone. What a glad
surprise it will be to Vic when the Saviour honors her many kind acts
by the words--"Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of
these my brethren, ye have done it unto Me."
