from his sins by the bloqd of the Lord Jesus (Rev. 1:5)? Do I experience daily cleansing (John 15:3; 1 John 1:9)? 2. Have I honestly yielded my life to Him without reserve, desiring that Christ shall be glorified (Rom. 12:2; Phil. 1:20)? Oswald Chambers says: "I am con vinced that it is not holiness nor good ness that makes me blessed of God, but absolute abandon. I am concerned for only one thing—Jesus Christ shall have His way.” 3. What ate my attitudes toward God (IThess. 2:4; Eph, 2:13; 6:6-8); to ward service (Lk. 17:10; 1 Cor. 9:16); toward others (Phil. 2:3; 1 Cor. 3:7-9; Rom. 12:10; 1 Thess. 5:12, 13), and to ward myself (Rom. 12:3; 1 Cor. 4:6, 7; 15:10)? II. WHAT IS-MY MESSAGE IN WORD AND DEED? 1. Do I see my friends, relatives, and business associates as eternally lost, Without hope, if they are outside of Christ? Does it mean anything to me that God could use even my life to point them to Himself, and thus out of death into life? 2. Is my life in harmony with that which I believe and tell others? Do I seek to know God’s w ill? Do I obey His w ill (1 Sam. 15:22)? Do I grieve the Holy Spirit (Eph. 4:30-32)? Do I know the meaning of Christian cpur- tesy (Rom. 12:10)? Do I really trust Him in the time of crisis? III. WHAT ENERGIZES MY ACTIV ITY? 1. Do I know the difference be tween service “ in the Spirit” and “in the flesh” (John 6:63; Rom. 8:5-10)? 2. Do I rely on my own talents and innate ability (2 Cor. 3:5; 9:8)? 3. Are my motives pure? Is the praise of men sweeter to me than the praise of God (Col. 3:23, 24)? 4. Do I wait on the Lord in prayer ful Bible study and meditation before speaking for Him to a group CHeb. 4:12; 1 Cor. 4:20; Jas. 1:5)? 5. Am I unselfish even at a real—or fancied—cost to myself (2 Cor. 9:22, 23) ? . 6. Am I easily discouraged, forget ting that discouragement is never from the Lord (Isa. 42:4; Josh. 1:9)? ' Conclusion Honest answers from sincere hearts should cause each of us to acknowl edge our need of going on into a rich er, fuller life in Christ. The past fa il ures need not be discouraging! Take the stand with Paul as recorded in Philip pians 3:13-15. The past with its fa il ures or successes is put behind, and there is- the new challenge, the new devotion to press on! Our goal is to know Christ (Phil. 3:10; 1 Cor. 2:2).
comprehension, so also is what He is able to do for us. There is no limita tion upon the Lord Jesus. Therefore, we should trust Him for everything and with everything. 2. The power of Christ is now work ing in us. It is our privilege to trust Him, and to permit Him to have His way in our lives. i In the coming year, let us trust the Lord to care fo r ,our individual prob lems. As a society, let us meet God’s conditions, and expect exceeding abun dant things from Him—beginning right now! For the Leader Prepare a large circle divided into four sections, and after each speaker place one of the following words, matching the topic, in one of the sec tions: KNOW, GROW, LIVE, TRUST. This will represent your full and bal anced year. SEPTEMBER 26, 1943 LEARN ING TO BE EFFECTIVE WORKERS P h il i p p ia n s 3:13-15 By Morena Holmes Downing Introduction Many an anxious person has heard the family physician say, “My advice to you would be to see a specialist at once!” There are specialists for physi cal needs, specialists in every realm of life. But in the most wonderful busi ness in' all the world, specialists are hard to find. Prepared persons, whose chief purpose is to glorify Christ in their lives and-service,, are rare.

How easy it is tcTsee the faults and failures of others, and yet be blind to our own!
