Not Worthy Harvest If We Observe the Wind
In a Washington dispatch, Dr. Talmage warns that delaying action because winds of circumstance turn unfavorable leads to lost opportunity. He compares this to a farmer and a stormy Sunday sermon that stir listeners to act, urging decisive sowing of good deeds despite public opinion and hardships. He cites Luther, Carey, Webster and others who advanced while opposed. He concludes with a call to decide today and sow prayers and kindnesses for a lasting heavenly harvest.
