We are having some, hot dry wealth
er here.
The farmers are quite busy, trying
to save their feed and to make ready
for the protracted services that win
be held by J. l.. White next month
He filled his regular appointment here
Saturday and Sunday. Quite a large
crowd attended Sunday. His sermon
was very interesting and was preached
through the spirit of God. That is
the way for us all to work for the mas
ter. Let us ask Him for His holy spir-
it that will teach us what we should
say and do that our works may be
pleasing to God, if they do not please
the world. Jesus Christ, Himself, did
not please all the people of earth when
he was here in the flesh, but he did not
come to this earth for any other pur
pose than to do the will of God and
please Him in his good works, so if we
ever enter the heavenly kingdom of
God, we must always be trying with
all our might to do the will of Him
that is dwelling in our souls. Today
let us strive harder to get close to God
that we may always feel His warm
and loving spirit. Oh, sinner friend,
if you could only realize in your heart
how great and precious is the love of
God you would turn away from your
sins and ask Him, who is able to save
you, to send His holy spirit that you
might know how sweet it is to walk
with Christ, the Saviour of this world.
The Lord says, Come unto me all
We that are weary and are heavy laden
and l will give you rest. Take my
yoke upon you and learn of me for my
yoke is easy and my burden light"
| Will you come to Him nowY You
shall be free, free. from thisAworld and
its control and you shall find rest
sweet rest to your souls. Why do you
linger2 Why do you waltz You are
now standing choosing your fate. If
you believe Him come and obey and
| He will wash your sins all away. Let
us entreat you come while you may.
Turn now, Oh turn, and leave the
broad way. Now is the time, twill
soon be too late. Death will soon come
and close mercy's gate, and then we
here will you be2 You will be shut of
from the kingdom of God and be cast
down, down into eternity with the
devil and his angels, into that awful
pit of fire that never shall be quenched
| Oh, do you not want to escape that
great punishment that you would re
ceive for your disobedience to God
When the Lord says ''Come" just
then is the time for you to go that 20,
may receive forgiveness of sin.
There is work that we must do and tn
Master sends the call Lay aside you
worldly care, come and labor one AM
all for the fields are ready now ant
the laborers are few. Hasten Will
the day is here. There is work for 20,
to do. Your reward will be safe AM
sure in the treasure-house above.
Come and help the faithful ones il
! the blessed work of love. Soon tn
summer day will end, when the har
vest time is past, so labor while 20,
may while the precious moments last
Would you live for Jesus and be al
ways pure and good? Would you wal
with Him within the narrow road
Would you have Him bear your burd
ems, carry all your load? Jesus is abb
to help us and give us all things tina
: we need. If we love Him and .obe
, Him he will come for us at close of day
t When He comes He will bring his re
! ward with Him for us all. Let u
l work for him in that way that our re
, ward will be great and not little.
