SPEAK GOOD.

THERE is a rendering of Ps. 100:4, in the English prayer book, which has always seemed to us very personal and fresh, “Be thankful unto Him and speak good of His name.” The gladdest praise, the purest blessing, the most acceptable sacrifice, anywhere and at any time, is to speak good of His name. To speak a good word of Him is to speak a good word for Him; it will be as the fragrance of flowers, as the song of birds, as the beauty of the sky. What a cloud of incense may go up to the throne of God and the Lamb through his people just speaking of him as they have tasted of his love, and as they have seen his glory in the face of Jesus Christ!—London Christian.
