Storing Up Moral Force.

Every day you meet dozens of elderly
people in whose face there is no clear
intelligence-their features wooden or
animahsh, their eyes muddy false. Yet
they were once bright and young as
you are; they dreamed as you dream,
of great and good things to come. And
they had moments of serious thought
and high resolve. All these damaged
old people are SO many once young.
What are the causes of failure? Posi-
bly, some of them are victims of blight
ing misfortune or injustice; possibly
some of them passed through their
early years without adequate guidance,
wise instruction, or kindly encourage
ment. But multitudes have failed
from unfaithfulness to themselves !;
from an indolent moral habit; from a
neglect of everyday neutrality-suspicious.
from some inward defect.
None of us. can live we'll by an occa-
sional good resolution. Everything
depends on storing up for ourselves an
ever increasing fund of moral power,
which shall be always available to sus-
tain us in carrying out our better
purpose. Unless we are willing 10 live
as moral tramps, on the brink of in
ward poverty and misery, we must
invest our all in this higher business,
so that every transaction of life shall
yield us spiritual income. Nothing is
secure until we are established in right
habits, rooted and grounded in heavenly
principles. We want to become fixed
and unchangeably good. This comes
from making the love of good, which is
identical with the love of God, the
supreme controlling law, the central
interest and the fountain of motives.
We shall do better than keep oursel1 es
decent; we shall be purer and truer
than the world take us to be; we shall
require of ourselves higher standard
than our best friends expect; we
shall be continually transformed 10y
the renewing of our minds.
The main question is not "What is
to become of us? but "What are we
to become?" Nor is the answer diHi-
cult. We need not wrestle painfully
with questions of doctrine, nor wait to
construct creed. If we are simply
faithful-if we follow the light that
God gives, if we are humble enough TO
learn from all sources and yet firmly
true to reason and conscience-we can
not miss the road; we shall move to-
ward our true place in the universe
