hands point to eternity. By gradual and slow changes the wheels of my soul lag b e h i n d , or the springs of passions become too powerful. I need a reliable timepiece by which I may amend my life ...I need God’s Word as the standard by which my life shall be governed. —Robert Murray McCheyene. A Daily Keynote “I can of mine own self do nothing” (John 5:30). Let us make Christ’s words our own: “I can do nothing of myself.” Look up and see the infinite God waiting to do everything as soon. as you are 5.

1. Prayer for Pain “And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may-rest upon me” (2 Cor. 12:9). 0 Lord, if. sorrow helps me learn Thy lessons well, Then teach me how to bear its biting sting; 1 only ask to do some bit for Thee, To know Thy sovereign will in everything. O Lord, if pain reveals to me Thy loving face, Then spare it not. . . crush out. each vain desire; Burn deep into my heart with Holy Flame, That others may find warmth at its hot fire.—Lili DeVeaux. Omnipotent Companionship “Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world” (Matt. 28:20). Oh, how it helps and comforts us •in the plod of life t o ,know that we have with Us the Christ who spent the first thirty years of His life in the car­ penter shop at Nazareth, and is able to understand all our experiences of drudgery and labor!

There is no place or time where He is not will­ ing to walk by our side, to w o r k through our hands and brains, and to, unite Himself in loving, all-sufficient partnership with all our needs. —A. B. Simpson. Our Secret Weapon "In the day when I c r i e d thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul” (Psa. 138:3). Prayer is the most potent weapon God has ever placed in human hands. In describing conditions that parallel our own times the Lord said: “Men ought always to pray, and not to faint.” You can either pray dr faint. It is easier to faint, and have someone carry you out. To pray always is an orientation of life to that Bright' and Morning Star. We conquer on our knees if we conquer at all. Pray, ever re­ sponsive to His will, and ever seeking to do it.— Christ Life. 2. 3.

4. Right Standards “The law of the Lord«is perfect, con­ verting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple” (Psa. 19:7). When I was in town I saw a good clock on the. street, so any errors in my watch were easily poted and cor­ rected. But without some standard timepiece to consult, the errors in my watch passed unnoticed. So it is with that inner watch whose
