I should not grieve o'er yesterday,
Because 'tis in God's past:
I may not bring it back again
With all its clouds overcast.

Nor should I o'er to-morrow fret,
Because it is not here:
And if tomorrow come at all
I may be far from fear.

Why should I worry o'er to-day ?
"Pis mine, the while I roam,
To serve my Lord and grow like Him
Until He calls me home. H. McD.

Hope it is that produces all the activities of love. If hope is lost, love becomes but a mourner and ceases to be active.

Love is the motive power in God or in His own; righteousness is the guiding power.
