1. accustoming myself to endure hardness, and 2. of economizing in order to be able more largely to assist those among whom I spent a good deal of Dme laboring in the gospel,
I soon found that I could live upon very much less than I had
previously thought possible.
BuOer, milk, and other such luxuries I soon ceased to use; and I found that by living mainly on oatmeal and rice, with occasional variaDons, a very
small sum was sufficient for my needs. In this way I had more than twothirds of my income available for other purposes;

Unspeakable joy all the day long and every day, was my happy experience.
God, even my God was living, bright reality; and all I had to do was
joyful service”
