Excerpt from Forefathers' Day Sermons I would not, brethren, have you ignorant, how that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea. - 1 cor. 10: 1. This is Forefathers' Sunday1 - a day on which every year I ask you to look back. It is a good thing to look back, not always, but sometimes. Many of us do not look back often enough. The present engrosses us, the passing mo ment absorbs us. The duties and engagements and plea sures and tasks of the day crowd in upon us and blind our eyes to everything but the thing that now is. We look back a little as far as yesterday. We read the morning paper. That is a record of yesterday. But we do not care to go further back. We are not interested in day before yesterday, or the day before that. Nothing is so dreary and stale as a daily paper two days old. But we ought to look back to last year, and to the last century, and still further. It is a good thing to take long views. We need a long view backward and a long view forward. It is the long View which gives us poise, and courage, and patience, and hope. It is the long view which enables us to quit ourselves like men.
