said a holy man, "that perseveres in dry duty.” Beware of thinking even this is labor lost. God does much work in the heart even at those seasons. And yet the comfort is that you need not rest here: you may go on until all your heart is love; till you rejoice evermore, pray without ceas ing, and in everything give thanks. —J ohn W esley . MARCH 22 Rejoicing in Him “ Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord" (Phil. 3 :1 ). There is no spiritual value in depression. One bright and thankful look at the cross is worth a thousand morbid, self-condemn ing reflections. The longer you look at evil the more it mesmerizes and defiles you into its own likeness. Lay it down at the cross, accept the cleansing blood. . . . Identifying yourself with the Lord Jesus, accept your standing in Him and look in your Father's face as blameless as Jesus. Then out of your every fault will come some lesson of watchfulness or some secret of victory which will enable you some day to thank Him, even for your painful experience. —A. B. S impson . MARCH 23 His Completely? "Y e are the temple o f the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them" (2 Cor. 6:16). Have you made a clear place for God in every chamber? Is it so in your read ing? Is it so in your talking? Is it so in your family? Is it so with your husband? Is it so with your wife? Is it so with your children? Is it so in sacred things? Is it so in your secular work? Have you made a clear domain for God? God means to be supreme in the sanctuary of the soul, and if we are reserving chambers for self we are so far excluding the Holy Ghost. —G. F. T rench . MARCH 24 Sufficient in Him "Boaz came from Bethlehem, and said unto the reapers, The Lord be with you. And they answered him. The Lord bless thee" (Ruth 2 :4 ). Boaz lived amid people of privilege in times of degeneracy. Perhaps there are no circumstances in which it is harder to live the life of the saint. It Is today easier to live a godly life in the midst of worldly men and women, than in the midst of worldly Christians. . . . Yet he was a man who made application of his relation to God in his relation to his fellow men. He greeted the men who worked for him in terms which disclosed his relation to God. . . . The secret in his case was that of the sufficiency of God for such as trust Him.—G. C ampbell M organ . MARCH 25 At the Throne of Grace "Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne o f grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time o f need" (Heb. 4:16). Meet Him in the morning Each recurring day. Let His radiant sunshine Flood your pilgrim way.
Undoubtedly there are various kinds and various degrees of communion with God. The most desirable prayer is that where we can quite pour out our soul and freely talk with God. But it is not this alone which is acceptable to Him. “I love one,”

The first edition of 5,000 copies became exhausted only a few months after it had been printed, with urgent requests and multiplied orders for additional copies.
