Divine Help Needed in Reso-
lutions,, Says Rev. DR..
Warner.

"On this New Years Day We come to
a solemn time in our lives" said the Rev.
Charles 7. Warner during his sermon on
the New Year., yesterday at Mount St.
Adams Church. Tennallytown. There Is
no person that can look back over in
the past and then look forward to the
future, without shuddering at what Is
shortcomings, and then. looking forward
to what Ia to come, he will hesitate at
that which they may have to go through.
"And so New Years Day Is an epoch
IN our lives. God so intended II. A time
when we should cry to God for mercy
and repeat solemnly and prayerfully the
words Of our text. Undertake for me-
And what do we need. We need a
refuge from the past, a strength for the
present, and a rest for the future. And
all of this is provided for US. We can
find an answer in the life OF Christ. for
every problem which arises in our own
existence.
Each one of us has memories of the
past. And anticipations and fears of what
Is to come, what the year may bring
forth
Christ the Only Remedy.
Now what is the remedy? There is
only one, and that Is to transfer all of
these troubles and temptations and trials
to Him whom God has provided as our
way of escape Christ bears all OF our
troubles for US. He carries all Of our
punishments. He has cancelled our whole
debt to God. He Is our Advocate who
stands at the right hand Of God. daily
interceding for US and for our sins.
And so We can only plead that he
will Undertake for me- Your debt Is
paid, your burden Is taken from your
shoulders, the past is obhterated, the
present is bright.
so this morning as we enter upon a
new stage In our life, let US pause and
think. Let US look forward, down the
path Of the coming year and see what
We are to have and then ask Christ
to undertake for u.s.
TT will not be long before some i'm
portant decision is to be made by US.
We will need a good judgment. Lord
undertake for me-
Or We may be called upon to do some
work which we feel totally incapable
Of performing. Our refuge then is Christ
Then again. disease may take hold
upon US, or our faith may become dim.
All j. darkness around us, or we fall
into some grievous sin. Then we must
remember Him who has said Come un-
to Me all ye that travail and are heavy
laden and I will refresh you and give
you rest
80 let us take as our text for this
whole year. the words of Isaiah the
prophet, Lord, undertake for me-" and
in whatever sphere OF life we are placed
whatever burdens we have to bear. what
ever grievous temptation assails u.s.
never forget that Christ has promised 10
be our succor and our help in time Of
need, and II We earnestly, prayerfully.
call TO Him, he will hear us and sup
port as all the day long of this troubfbus
life until the shadows lengthen. and the
evening comes and this busy world is
hushed, and the fever of life Is over
then in HIS great mercy he will grant
US a safe lodging and holy rest through
Jesus Christ our Lord"
