Women’s tears are precious as they are poured out on the paths of human suffering. Women’s hands are soft and gentle as they minister in the sick room, in the hospital, in the home of poverty. Women’s words are mighty as they come welling up from the bottom of loving hearts, in pleading with lost ones. Women’s works are beautiful as they are wrought over all the world, in the name of Jesus. Women’s power is well nigh omnipotent when anointed by the Holy Ghost. Women’s influence is most blessed in home and school and church. Yet, blessed and beautiful and mighty as is the service which the women are rendering to their Lord, the cause of Christ needs men as well.
Men of courage are wanted to stand in the front ranks of truth, to resist and hurl back the assaults of the enemy. Men with keen intellect are wanted to meet the sophistries of error and the subtle attacks of infidelity and skepticism. Men with fine business abilities are wanted to carry on the secular affairs of God’s house. Men with wealth are wanted to lay money gifts upon the altar to forward the interests of Christ’s kingdom. Holy men are wanted to witness for Christ in the face of his enemies. Men with eloquent tongues and burning hearts are wanted to go into all the dark places of the cities, into the purlieus of vice, into the homes of sin, to tell story of the love of God and of the cross of the Redeemer. Men of tender heart and loving sympathy and gentle touch are wanted to give comfort to the world’s sorrow, to help other tempted men in their battles, to rescue the perishing out of their bondage.
