Sitting Happy

"I sat down under His shadow with great delight" (S. of Sol. 2:3).
One stormy day in the depth of winter a Christian was visiting an old man who lived in poverty in a lonely cottage. He found him sitting with the Bible open upon his knees, but in outward circumstances of great discomfort-the snow drifting through the roof, and under the door, and scarcely any fire on the hearth.
"What are you about today, John?" was the question on entering.
"Ah, sir," said the happy saint, "I am sitting under His shadow with great delight."
