THE DYNAMIC ASPECT OF EVIL[40] There remains yet one other way in which I earnestly desire to help you if I can.

I would fain afford you some light on this difficult problem and give you a spring of hope within by enabling you to see what it is working out in the world without.

Some, I know, do not need this help.
Some wholesome souls seem to gaze on all evil with sun-dazzled eyes--eyes that see Him in whom they walk, and not it, and in His light they see light.

They are the "naturally Christian" souls who lead melodious days amid all the jars and discords of the world around them.
Others there are who seem to look upon these great social evils as especially provided to afford a sphere for their beneficent activities; and who if, by some sudden rise in public opinion, some passionate sense of the wrong done to women, the degraded class should almost cease to exist, would in their heart of hearts secretly regret so many empty beds in their little Rescue Home and the possibility that it might have to be shut up, when "the girls did turn out so well." Others, again, there are who never trouble their heads or hearts about the misery and sin of the world, or any social problem, however dark, as long as their own house is comfortable, their own bed soft, and their own children healthy and well cared for, never dreaming how those social evils may press upon those children in their after-life.

These are in no need of this kind of help.
