Christian Life All Gain

REAL Christianity means constant giving, but not giving up. Yet it is hard for some people to get away from the idea that friendship with Christ means the loss of much that is desirable. It does not. One who is familiar with the beech tree knows that its dead leaves often adhere all through the autumn and winter, but that when spring comes, and the sap begins to run through every fiber, the old dead leaves fall. But this is not loss. Life banishes death. He who gives Jesus Christ the right of way in his life will not count it a loss to have his sins cast away.—Selected.
