"MY SOUL, BE ON THY GUARD!"

Do not forget that our ever active Adversary seems to be granted additional liberty and power of temptation at the Passover season. Let each soldier of the cross be specially on his guard to resist him—steadfast in faith and good works and love. Let each also be on guard to help and not to stumble the "brethren" at this time. Pray for one-another and for us; as we also remember all of you at the throne of the heavenly grace.

"LOOKING UNTO JESUS!"

—————

Look unto Christ, O Church of God,
Fear not, nor be distressed;
'Twas he who gave his precious blood,—
In him you now are blessed.

Look unto Christ, O sons, first-born,
Though darkness fill the earth,
Redemption cometh in the morn
Of restitution's birth.

Look unto Christ, O groaning race,
Thy burden to remove;
Jehovah's all-sufficient grace
The "King of kings" shall prove.—J. M. Blose.
