Living Grace and Dying Grace

WE sometimes ask ourselves if we should be willing to die, or should we be willing to live in hopeless suffering, or should we be willing to put the fire to our darling ambitions. It is easy to answer such questions. We determine the future by the present. If to-day we do to-day's duty, to-morrow we shall be able to do to-morrow's duty. If to-day we are willing to live for God, on some to-morrow we shall be willing to die for him. To-day we do not receive dying grace, for God does not call us to death. To-day he calls us to live, and therefore he gives living grace. To-morrow he will call us to death, and to-morrow he will give us dying grace.—Pittsburg Christian Advocate.
