The New Year

By Editor

Out of the mighty unrolling future, big with portent and possibility, a new year bursts upon us. What it shall mean to us in adversity or prosperity, in gain or loss, in trial or ease, in storm or calm, we may not wholly or perhaps at all determine; for we live in a complex and imperfect world beyond our individual control. But what it means to us morally, in character-building, rests with us — it lies between us and God. He is ever for us — our Peace, our Life, our Rock of Strength, our Joy. Whatever all these shall avail for us depends upon our choice. May each of our readers so unite with Christ our Lord that every day of the year shall mark progress heavenward, and make them all blessings to those they meet or greet in the upward way.
