The Morning Watch Calendar

By M. E.

THE last notice of the Morning Watch Calendar in the REVIEW, brought to the office a small avalanche of personal orders. But there may still be some who are not supplied, or who have friends that would be helped by this little daily reminder. We can not easily overestimate the importance of the morning personal devotion. All who have tried it will doubtless indorse the advice of John T. Stone, who says: “Face the work of every day with the influence of a few thoughtful, quiet moments with your own heart and God. Do not meet other people, even those of your own home, until you have first met the great Guest and honored Companion of your life—Jesus Christ. Meet him alone. Meet him regularly. Meet him with his open Book of counsel before you; and face the regular and irregular duties of each day with the influence of his personality, controlling your every act.”

A young man of Washington State says: “The Lord has wonderfully blessed us lately. The Morning Watch Calendar is almost indispensable. One gets such strength from a talk with the Lord before he goes to his work. I seem to feel happier the day through.” Space will not permit the many personal testimonials that have been given in its favor. It is a little thing, but as the slender cord draws in the strong rope which anchors the ship securely to the wharves, so the little “daily reminder” is drawing into many lives the strong habit of regular personal devotion which will anchor them securely to the Rock of Ages. It is late to begin. But now is better than to wait until next January. There are still a few calendars in stock. Send your address and five cents to the Missionary Volunteer Department and get one by return mail.
