ENDEAvOR NOTES
NOVEMBER FIFTH.
Am | Keeping my Christian Endeav-
or Covenant?-Mal. 2:5, s; Ps.
51:6; Cor 9:21.

o1:b, Cor. S:Zl.
Something that is dead and doing
nothing looks peaceful; but the only
peace worth having is the life and
peace" that God gives in the way Of
His commandments.
Truth is not a haphaZard thing, to
be played with and jested with; IT Is.
of law, fixed and certain, pledged AMI
permanent.
If pledge is not kept with desire.
it is not kept with deeds.
If our Christian life is not lived in
the sight of men, it is not lived in
the sight of God.
Suggestions.
We are not only our brothers
keeper, but also his pledge-keeper,
Help your comrades to keep their
pledges.
We covenant with one another to
keep our pledge, but only because first
cf all we covenant with God.
If you will keep your pledge, your
pledge will keep you.
An undated covenant is binding on
both parties until both give a release
from it.
illustrations.
The Christian Endeavor pledge is
no crutch unless you are a cripple,
The pledge is like the guide-rope Of
Alpine travellers; 1t holds us to one
another, and binds us all to our Guide.
The pledge will not keep itself any
more than a business partnership
will accomplish its end through in
action.
Perjury Is serious offense in
earthly courts; is it likely to be less
serious in the courts of heaven?
Keeping the Pledge.
The great need of the times is train
ing in sincerity, in honesty, That
is one reason why it is well TO take
pledges. and hold them.
If you are not keeping your pledge,
the best thing is--to keep it; the Sec
ond best is-to leave the society;
there is no third best.
Consider. II you were to obtain re-
lease from your pledge, from how
many of the duties recognized by the
pledge would you dare to ask re-
lease?
When any one objects to the pledge
you may generally silence his obiec-
tions by asking him TO which particu.
lar portion of the pledge he objects
If any one is reluctant to take the
pledge, he Is doubtless reluctant to
do the things the pledge calls upon
him to do.
In every point, our pledge is sim
ply an agreement to do, in regard 10
that thing, what we deem to be
Chrlst's will.

Whatever beg of God, let us also
work for 1t; if the thing be matter of
duty or consequent to industry. For
God loves to bless labor and to reward
it, And therefore our blessed Saviour
joins watchfulness with prayer; for
Gods graces are but asslstances, not
new creations of the whole habit, in
every instant or period Of our lives.
Read Scripture and then pray to God
for understanding. Pray against temp

living; but you must also work with
your own hands the things that are
honest, that ye may have to supply In
time of need. We can but do our
endeavor and pray for blessing, and
then leave tho success with God; and
beyond this we cannot deliberate, we
cannot take care; but so far we must
