*"You know, Ganid, most human beings are like the lost child. They spend much of their time crying in fear and suffering in sorrow. When in very truth, they are but a short distance from safety and security, even as this child was only a little way from home. All those who know the way of truth and enjoy the assurance of knowing God should esteem it a privilege, not a duty, to offer guidance to their fellows in their efforts to find the satisfactions of living. Did we not supremely enjoy this ministry of restoring the child to his mother? So do those who lead men to God experience the supreme satisfaction of human service."
