Is Eve making
things warm for you, Adam? Take care you jump not out of the frying pan
into the fire. Are circumstances plaguing you, Everybody? Take the hint
lest worse plagues arrive; learn wisdom and avoid the Red Sea.
Be not wise in thine own conceits. _Lean_ not upon thine own
understanding, but in _all_ thy ways _and thy neighbor's ways_,
acknowledge that the One Good Spirit leads, and He shall direct thy feet
in paths of peace and pleasantness.
The proof of foolishness is unrest and friction.
The proof of wisdom is peace.
_Be still and know the Lord thy God, and learn from what He draws to
thee_.
CHAPTER VIII.
THE HEART OF WOMAN.
"My wife has fallen in love with another man. She keeps house for me and
I am trying to show her all the love I can but it seems to have no
effect upon her. I love her dearly and desire to win her back. What
should be my attitude toward her and toward the man?" A.J. (who is one
of many who have thus written me.)
Goodness knows! _Be_ good and you will know. In other words, be just to
all three before you are generous to anybody. Of course that is not easy
to do, but it is possible; and it is the only thing you can never be
sorry for afterward.
