Giving Our Best Senrvioc.

There is a very precious comfort In the assurance that if we bring the best service we can to God, however humble it may seem, in their light of God's love it will be glorified. Our lives sometimes seem very valueless when we keep them for ourselves selfishly; hut when we pot them In God’s hand and see what He does with them, and how they are transfigured and transformed, we are amazed at what we behold. Let us put ourselves completely In the hand at God. It we will do that, He will transform and enrich our life a hundredfold. Let ns not hold back that which it is within our power to give to carry the goepel to the heathen, or lift the burden from the shoulders of God's poor. Though It seems little in our hands. If with loving purpoeo wo put It In tho hands of God, It shall bo multiplied under His touch of Infinite love. The word of sympathy it Is our chanoe to speak, though It be as humble as the "cup of oold water" that Jesus blesses, becomes a great thing when tho tawing countenance of God shines upon It —Rev. Louis Albert Banka, D. D.
