Follow Me.

EolloW NASs
Dear Lord, l would, but see how dark
the way;
How fierce and pitiless sweeps down
the Storm,
vouchsafe to me but just one glimmer-
ing ray,
That / may catch some trace of Thy
dear form.
And then q voice from out the darkness
said:
They are most blessed who ne'er did
And yet. not knowing seen, confding
tread
Their way by faith, not sight. Then
follow Me!
How can !, Lord? The way is all so
rough,
So full of shadows dark and many a
snare;
Each step 1 tread is met with keen re-
buff
Until my heart is sum- in deep despair.
Faint heart, comes the response. Be not
afraid, s :
/ am thy light, in Me shalt thou see:
Grid up thy loins anew, be not dismayed.
Press on unfalteringly and follow Me!

1 would, o Lord. but zee how thick and
fast
The shafts with which my foes would
pierce me through,
BY venom poisoned, and by hatred cast.
Through Me thou canst do all things
and succeed.
Have I"not~ conquered all thy foes for
thee?,
My grace is all sufficient for thy need:
Shake off thy faithless fears, and follow
Me.
Bowed down with shame and weeping bit
ter tears, s@
saw at last how faithless I had been.
How had wounded by my doubts and
The One % whom alone my soul could
lean,
But nowI fear no more. Like down that's
V blown
From Oh the thistles seem my foes to
me,
And peace is mine, I had not known.
As tfutafuliy, O Lord, { follow Thee.

Chriatian llld Ara

Old age ought to be the most beauti.
full period Of q good life. Yet not al
ways Is It So. There are elements In
the experience Of old age which make
It hard to keep the inner life in q state
Of renewal. The bodily powers are de-
caying. The senses are growing dull.
It Is lonely. There Is in memory a rec
ord Of empty cribs and vacant chairs,
Of sacred mounds in the cemetery. The
work Of life has dropped from the
hands. 1t Is not easy to keep the joy
living in the heart In such experiences.
Yet that is the problem Of true Chris
ton living. While the outward MAI
decays, the inward man should be re-
newed day by day. This is possible,
too, as many Christian old people have
proved. Keeping near the heart Of
Christ is again, as always, the secret.
Faith gives a new meaning to life. 1t
is seen no more In its relation to earth
and what is gone, but in Its relation to
mortality and what is to come. The
Christian old mans best days are not
behind him, but always before him.
He is walking, not toward the end, but
toward the beginning.
Nature and Art.
II we would get near to Natures
heart" and "hold communion with her
visible forms" we must get away from
the busy haunts of civilized men. When
we look at the planet or which we live
we say with pride that man is evident
~ the head of earthly creatures, for he
only, Of all earthly creatures, has
changed to any great extent the fair
face OF nature. It Is true, that in the
great ocean, the coral insect has FORM
ed mighty islands and dangerous reefs,
while the chalk cliffs tell Of the great
achievements of i~nfinitesimal life on
the surface of the earth. These, how
ever, are only the results Of living and
dying without intelligent aim, and they
are only a step removed from the prod
ucts Of the mighty forces Of vegetable
life that, in countless ages. formed our
great coal beds. These forces have not
intelligently changed the face Of ma.
ture.
BY Faith and Earnest Action.
II you advance in the Christian Life
at all 1t must be by faith and most earn
est action. Every power must be
brought into exercise. Speak, sing,
work, pray, agonize II need be. Make
a business Of your religion, and a push
ing, aggressive business, too. Eternity
will reveal the fact that Gods true ser.
vice is the best that man we engaged
in.
