Indifference: the Cause of Discouragement
Romans 10:16
But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias said, Lord, who has believed our report?


"Why do I sit as if I were asleep when I play?" said Rubinstein, in reply to a question. "I will gladly tell you how that is. Some five years ago I gave a concert in London. My audience seemed very interested, and I myself was well disposed. As I was playing Beethoven's 'Appassionata,' without thinking I looked around, and there, at the other end of the piano, I saw a lady gossiping as fast as possible! It was like a douche of ice-water. I closed my eyes at once, and since then I have never dared to even cast a glance at an audience."
