Paul M. Strayer

In an engine-room it is impossible to look into the great boiler and see how much water it contains. But running up beside it is a tiny glass tube which serves as a gauge. As the water stands in the little tube, so it stands in the huge boiler. If the tube is half full the boiler is half full. When the tube is empty, so is the boiler. Do you sometimes ask, "How can I love God?" Look at the gauge. Your love for your fellows is the measure of your love for God. You are no more right with God than you are with men.—Rev. Paul M. Strayer.
