BATTLING FOB THE BIBLE One beautiful way to battle for the Bible is to live it. Two missionaries went to a Catholic country as colpor teurs. They met with little success, but they pressed on even to a city where they had been told it would be sure death to attempt to sell their Scriptures. They were met by prohi bition from the authorities; not one little Gospel might they sell without ■danger to their lives. They came often in touch with one of the great men o f authority, who noted their bright faces, their quiet demeanor, their freedom from self-defense, their gen tle words, their quiet answers to sneering questions. He thought he would like to read one of the books that such men sold and bought the Gospel of Matthew and was soundly saved. Through his influence, in a ■couple of days, every copy of the Scriptures they had with them was sold. They had battled for the Bible toy living the Bible. They had been examples of “patient perseverance in well doing.” Rpm. 2:7. They had obeyed the command, “Love your en emies.” It might have been said of them as one heathen did say of one missionary, “He lives like the Man he tells us about.” They fought a good fight. The battle was over. The vic tory was won. The town became transformed.—Abbie C. M o r r o w Brown. One who knows all things to show us how to invest our lives for the largest returns, and then submit to His plan. He loves us, as is proved by the Cross, and longs for the very best for us, so that the reasonable thing to do is to put ourselves in His hands. The more we give of ourselves to Him the larger w ill be the returns for His glory. Let us not give Him the little scraps of time left over, after we have spent most of it elsewhere. Let us not give Him the little strength that remains, a fter we have used the greater part of it in earning money or seeking pleas ure. Let us not give Him the. little thoughts that are left after our minds have been busy thinking of some new amusement, filled with some trashy .stories, or occupied in some selfish in terest. Let us not give Him the feeble love that remains after we have lav ished our love upon our physical appe tites and desires. No, let us turn all our time, strength, mind and love oVer to Him. This is the best possible in vestment to make of our lives, for time a n d eternity. OUB YOUNG PEOPLE (Continued from page 21.6)
