Our Gospel.

“A little balm, and a little honey, spices, and myrrh, nuts and almonds.” Gen. 43:11.
CHARACTER dictates destiny.
REPENTANCE is the heart’s sorrow.
CHEATED men have long memories.
THE worst of heresies is the lack of love.
GOD has his eye on your heart, and your tongue cannot deceive him.
PEOPLE look at your six days in the week, to see what you mean on the seventh.
GENIUS finds its own road, and carries its own lamp.
NEVER find fault until it is perfectly certain that a fault has been committed.
THAT which could break a proud man’s heart will not break a humble man’s sleep.
WE waste our time in moments, our money in dimes, and our happiness in trifles.
THE elements of success are within a man, but the chances are outside of him.
IN giving us Christ, God has given all grace—a fullness of grace for all times and seasons, if we have only faith to use it.
THE force, the mass of character, mind, heart, or soul, that a man can put into any work, is the most important factor in that work.
IF infidelity succeeds in teaching a man that he will die like a beast, it will at the same time succeed in teaching him how to live like one.
A CLERGYMAN in Boston recently aroused his sleepy audience by asserting in the most positive manner that, “notwithstanding the hard times, the wages of sin have not been cut down one iota.”

The Brave.

THEY are brave who dare to speak For the fallen and the weak; They are brave who dare to be In the right with two or three.
To do good to men, as God sends his rain and sunshine alike upon the just and the unjust; to look for what is good in them, as he draws us by our nobler selves and blots out our transgressions; to pity what is bad, as—while we were yet sinners—Christ died for us,—these are the ways by which we may grow to love one another as he loved us.
DARE to do right! dare to be true! Keep the great judgment-seat always in view; Look at your work as you’ll look at it then, Scanned by Jehovah, and angels, and men. Dare to do right! dare to be true! Cannot Omnipotence carry you through? City, and mansion, and throne all in sight, Can you not dare to be true, and be right?
