Life Has No Proof-Sheet

IN ordinary books, errors may be erased in manuscript, or corrected in the proof-sheet. But life has no proof-sheet. "What is written is written." Pilate, in these words, wrote his own history and ours. A word spoken, or deed done, is beyond recall, like a letter, dropped in the mail and carried far beyond our reach. Hence forethought is necessary, so is fervent prayer for that divine help without which our record will be filled with errors.
