"Brethren, pray for us."

In these closing hours of trial and darkness, how welcome is the kind greeting of a fellow pilgrim, whose eye is fixed upon the same star in the east.—How encouraging is the interchange of confidence andthe mutual expression of faith and zeal, and how unspoken the chord of union that binds to the cross of a coming Saviour. But for a little moment, we still meet to part again, and the farewell pledge is often spoken, “brethren, pray for us.”
Oh, it is a sacred word that often echoes long around the secret altar of the heart. And can we then forget! No, brethren, let us pray, and ever bring, in the prevailing hour, our fellow watchers, to the MERCY-SEAT.
