OUR LIFE AND EXAMPLE

OUR LIFE AND EXAMPLE
An English Missionary on ms way
to India, heard cry on deck, "A man
overheard" Thinking what he could
do to help, he held his little reading
lamp up to the portfolio of the cabin
and the ray it cast across the dark
waters gave just the light needed to
find and rescue the sinking sailor.
So dear reader, may our lie and
example give to our fellow men, save
them. from ignorance and SIM ana
show them the way to Christ. NO
great learning or abundant wealtn IS
needed, but simply faithfuiness IN
duty, the example of a conslstan!
Christian life.
