METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH.
"Would aught on earth my wishes share?
Though dear as life the idol be,
The idol from my breast l tear,
Resolved to seek my all in Thee.
"Whate'er l fondly counted mine,
To Thee, my Lord, l here restore;
Gladly l all for Thee resign;
Give me Thyselt, l ask no more"
Dear reader, there is but one kind of
Christian life to live-strange as it may
seem that nj should speak as if there
were more than one-and that is one of
entire conservation to our Father. Such
a life will be one of entire self-abandon-
ment to the blessed will of God, and one,
in the words of Jesus, in which II do
nothing of myself-for l do always those
things that please Him." Just think,
dear reader, what Jesus could accom-
plish in n year if he had but one mil
lion such servants out of the five hum
dred millions of ~present-day nominal
Christians, many of whom have never
yet experienced simple regeneration;
that which must be every ones expert
nee before there can be the least SEM
blance of hope to please God and secure
heaven. Make the poets prayer of con-
secration for yourself just now and re-
ceive the blessed indwelling Christ so
He may call you at any time and for any
service He may choose. Then, and only
then, you will know how sweet it is to
have Jesus as your all and in all. Do
not forget to come early to the commute
song service at 1890, and be sure to bring
someone with you.
F. w. Gress, Pastor.
