CLINGING BY FAITH

There is a little limpet that is found clinging to the rocks

along the coast; if you crawl up stealthily and hit one a heavy

blow, you may detach it; but after you have struck the rock it

is almost impossible to loosen the grasp of another limpet.

These little limpets are good for nothing but to cling; but

they do that with an awful tenacity. That’s what limpets are

for--simply to cling. Oh, that we just knew how to cling to

God by faith--nothing more, nothing less.--BRADFORD V.

BAUDER.
