But many fail to find this blessed shadow. They search in vain, plodding on wearily and painfully day after day, crushed down beneath the burden of their daily cares. “Seek and ye shall find,” said our Lord. But these fail to find rest because they seek a place, and not a Person. Christ Himself is “the apple-tree.” At His feet there is both rest and rapture.
