The New Year

WE have floated further down the stream of Time. Another year has begun. Each of us is nearer Eternity. Who shall dare to say.
"I shall see the close of 1934"
The frail thread of life may be snapped, the brief span of the allotted days may be measured, the word may have gone forth,
"This year thou shalt die."
Reader, how is it with your soul? Your life is uncertain, but at this moment there is a great certainty concerning you—you are either saved or lost—either in Christ or out of Christ—either a child of God or a slave of Satan. Reader, are you saved?
And who shall dare to say,
"The Lord will not come this year"?
We know "that He that shall come will come, and will not tarry." Happy are they who wait and watch for His return. While the world goes on its busy way; while schemes for human progress, for wars and wickedness, fill the thoughts of men, the happy few in the world, but not of it, wait for their Lord from heaven.
"He is coming!" they whisper one to another; "He will soon be here, and when He comes we shall go up to meet Him in the glory, and be with Him and like Him forever."
Reader, are you living for this world, or are you waiting for God's Son from heaven, even Jesus, who hath delivered us from the wrath to come?
