business. Jesus ought to be as real in the city as in the temple. If I
read my New Testament aright, and if I know God, and if I know humanity,
and if I know Nature, then that is God’s programme. God’s programme is
that the whole of life should be permeated with Christ.

God bless the women who have gone out to help your boys. Women of title,
of wealth and position, serving God and humanity behind tea-tables.

In one of our huts I saw a lady standing beside two urns—coffee and tea.
She was pouring out, and there were 150 or 200 men standing round that hut
waiting to get served. The fellows at the end were not pushing and
crowding to get first, but waiting their turn. They are more good-natured
than a religious crowd waiting to get in to hear a popular preacher. I
have seen these people jostle at the doors.

But your boys don’t do that. They just sing, “Pack up your troubles,” and
wait their turn.

Well, these boys, wet and cold, were waiting for a cup of coffee, and one
of those red-hot gospellers came along, and he said, “Sister, stop a
minute and put a word in for Jesus. This is a great opportunity.”

“But,” she replied, “they are wet and tired; let me give them something
hot as soon as I can.”

“Oh! but let’s put a word in for Jesus,” urged this chap.

Then a bright-faced soldier lad called out, “Guv’nor, she puts Jesus in
the coffee.” That is what I mean when I say you have got to put Jesus into
every bit of the day’s work.
