BREATHING AND PRAYING.


NAM GO1 EEARSE.
Ii we do not get breath it matters
very little what else we get. Food.
warmth, sleep, are of no avail if we
cannot breathe. The entering into
the presence of God and oommuning
with him is the renewal of our
spiritual atmosphere.
Set before your mind the case of
the diver who has TO go down to
work in the depths under the sea.
The water is the breath of the fish,
but it is death TO him. The condi-
ton of his life is that the air of this
upper world be pumped down TO him.
Then he goes down without fear,
careful beforehand TO @ that all ia
right with the atmosphere above
him, and careful, however deep he
goes, or however busy he is, TO keep
the communication open with that
upper world TO which he belongs.
He is not always thinking about his
breathing, but he cannot do without
Is for a moment, and he knows bet
ter than TO suffer any trifing with
the apparatus that secures his
safety.
So are we in this world the atmos
phere is too dense for our new life.
And yet our duty lies down here.
Well, fear not, go down; only first
of all be sure about the communica-
ton with that higher life TO which
we belong. If that be broken off or
neglected, we die. Take not Thy
Holy Spirit from mel 10 a cry for
every life, and this hiding of our
selves with God in prayer is the adj
justing of the apparatus with that
source whence m the breath of
life TO us.
Nothing a take the place of this
quiet walking with God. Is were q
mad folly TO try to live without
sleep or food but what of the man
who tries to live without breathe
That is what you r doing if you
suffer prayer TO dry up into a mere
set of phrases, which are repeated
without any thought of heart.
Prayer is more than a kneeling
and asking something from God
much more. What we need ia to
get into the presence of God. We
want the hallowing touch Of Gods
own hand and the light of his coun-
tenance. Tarrying in His presence
we must have the breath of God
breathed into us again, renewing the
life which he created at the first.
This is the first, the great need OF the
life of holiness.-Christian Advocate.

DON'T WAIT FOR PERSECUTION!

Perhaps few confessed Christians
would fail TO stand the test of ply
steal martyrdom and death if faced
with the alternative of renounoing
their Christian faith. Most of us
honestly believe that we would not
give up Christ under such circum-
stances, and the testing times of
persecution have always brought
forth abundant Christian heroism
and loyalty TO the Master. But for
those of Us who would expect TO find
strength TO stand the fierce tests
that come TO so few in these Chris
tian days, how ignominous are our
daily failures under the tests of
everyday lifel How thoughtlessly,
how oomplacently, how constantly,
we dishonor Him whose name we
bearl Are we not renouncing him
when, in the face of temptation, we
refuse TO receive from him the
strength that we know ia ours IL we
will? Are we any better than the
prosecuted one who, to escape the
stake or the sword, cries out that he
knows not this Christi Do not wait
for another Boxer outbreak TO prove
your idelity so him. Do it to-day =
