We are greedy after this world’s things, and never can get enough of them; but of the real things, the things that will last through eternity, we are satisfied with very small portions. “What seek ye?” asks the Master, his hands filled with precious blessings; and we ask for some little thing, some trifle, when we might have glorious fulness of blessing. How very strange it must seem to the angels to see us poor mortals giving our life, our very soul, to get some paltry thing of earth that will perish to-morrow, and then not taking the precious spiritual boons that we might have for the mere asking!
