JUST A MOMENT
DAILY STRENGTH

Compiled by John C. Quinius,

There is peace to thee. and no

When peace brings freedom in her
train
Let happy lips His ways rehearse.
Whittier.
Remember: To a man striving
constantly to mend his life. nothing
is so true a gospel of peace as the
announcement of Gods ever ready
help. To the humble or simple
man doing his duty in that state OF
life to which God has called him
worthy according to-the law which
God has written in his heart. the best
gospel is that God with a righteous
judgment faithfully renders to every
man according to his deeds.-A. p
