Ver. 12. _The Development of Events in a Consecrated Life_--

+I. Is the work of an over-ruling Providence.+

+II. Produces startling results, disappointing alike to the hopes of

the enemy and the fears of friends.+

+III. Whatever may be its starting-point attains its end in the

furtherance of the Gospel.+

+IV. Illustrates how moral principles when tried in suffering become

mightier forces in the world's evangelisation.+

+V. A pledge that fellowship of suffering with Christ shall be

followed by a fellowship of glory.+--_Lay Preacher._
