CONTROL YOUR THOUGHTS.


Until You have lea med to control your
thoughts you will never be able to live a
godly and righteous life. As a man think
eth in his heart. so is he and it is be-
cause the thoughts that we entertain in
the hosiery of the soul are such worth
less and vain ones that our words and
acts often bring so heavy disgrace on
the name we loye. Well might the wise
man say; "Keep thy heart above all keep
ing. for out of 1T are the issues Of life"
When the heart is right the ear and
the eye and the mouth and the foot will
necessarily obey its promptings but
when the heart is wrong, filled with
tides of ink. like the cuttle-fsh, it will
develop itself In the impurity to which
it gives vent. II you habitually
permit evil things to have their hight Of
way through you, or lodging within you.
remember that, in Gods sight, you are
held equally guilty with those that in
dulge in evil acts, because you are with
held, not by your fear Of him. but by
your desire to maintain your position
among men.
