OUR LEADER.

ALL along on the battle-field of life, the Christian finds the footprints of Christ. He can see where He has fought with the enemy and thrown him upon the ground. In the valley of temptation, when the righteous man feels that he is standing alone, his eye falls upon the tracks of Jesus, who walked that way and fought, being tempted in all points. On the hillside of sorrow, he sees where the Saviour has struggled, being alone yet not alone, and great drops of bloody sweat have fallen. Many a faint-hearted one, heart-sick and weary, has taken heart at the knowledge that the Saviour had been there before him.

Blessed Leader! He never sends us anywhere He was unwilling to go Himself, and where we may not take heart again at sight of His princely footprints.—Herald of Truth.
