FOR LIFE.

If we knew that our choice between right and wrong at this moment settled our eternity, we think that it would be easy to choose. But there comes a time in every life when the choice is the last one, tho no one but God knows when. And every choice between now and the last choice is determining what the last choice shall be. To a man sorely tempted came the thought, "If I knew that my choice at this time settled my victory or defeat for all time, I would not hesitate an instant." Then there went up the prayer, "Father, make this the victory for all time, and I will decide for Thee." Like a flash came the answer, "Eternity depends on your choice now,"—and the victory was won. What reason have we to suppose that we can choose to do wrong to-day, and to-morrow turn from the wrong and take the right? The final decision is not the decision of a moment; it is the decision of a life. To-day you are choosing for life, or for death.—Anon.
