The best way for us to get good things to our friends
The good wishes of friends do not, by their mere utterance, become realities in our lives; if they did, how rich most of us would be, and how happy!
Good wishes, however, may be made to come true; they may be turned into prayers by those who make them, and, passing through the hands of Christ, may be changed from mere empty breath — into blessings that shall enrich our lives, or feed our souls, or shine like sparkling gems upon our brows.
The best way for us to get good things to our friends — is to pass them through Christ's hands.
