It was because Jesus Himself did so--giving Himself up utterly--that God has so highly exalted Him and given Him a name above every name.

And, indeed, if you are a good doctor, you will be doing something of what Jesus did when He was in the world." "Yes; but He didn't give people medicine to cure them." "No; that wasn't necessary, because He was Himself the cure.

But now that He is not present with His bodily presence--now, medicine and advice and other good things are just the packets in which He wraps up the healing He sends; and the wisest doctor is but the messenger who carries to the sick as much of healing and help as the Great Doctor sees fit to send.

For He is so anxious to cure thoroughly that in many cases He will not cure all at once." "How I _should_ like to take His healing about!" cried Willie--"just as the doctors' boys take the medicines about in baskets: grannie tells me they do in the big towns.

I _should_ like to be the Great Doctor's boy!" "You really think then," Mr Shepherd resumed, after a pause, "that a doctor's is the best way of helping people ?" "Yes, I do," answered Willie, decidedly.
