THE CHRISTIAN RACE.

The race is almost run. The way may be rough, but it leads to glory. We have everything to encourage us. The truth is onward, and will soon gain the victory. Let us take courage. The trials and troubles of earth will soon be over. Joy will yet be the song of the people of God forever. O happy day, soon to dawn!
Then let us press on, and let nothing stop us on the way; but let us look to Jesus and run the race with patience. The prize is straight before us, and if we do our duty and serve the Lord with all our hearts, that prize will be ours to enjoy in the kingdom of God, where sorrow and death will never enter, but all will be peace and righteousness throughout one eternal day. Let us, then, take courage and press on, and ever on, till we outride the trials of this life, and find ourselves saved with an everlasting salvation.
