LIFELINES Many people have the mistaken idea that hope is simply a passive jxissession. But. instead, it is an active grace. Hope like the main-spring of a watch which sets all the wheels going, is the inspiring motive of life, Hope puts all our energies in motion On the other hand, if we have no hope, there is no incentive to struggle A man was out among the Mes aq re £uoj oq j«*aih oiqQ ay} uo aoi jo saqeo efforts being made to save him, he struggled bravely. But when at last he saw his rescuers give up in despair. he threw up his hands, and with a wild cry, sank out of sight When hope failed, effort ceased. So it is in all life. Let us hope in the L rd. with Him .s plenteous redemption. MINISTERS GF WALKERTON
