We all have to run a race, but how few of us are running the Christian race. For those anxious to start, one of the first things to be done is to join a club- i. e., an institute— and a church. Then, having joined the club, mind you are a running member, and not a merely ornamental subscriber. Run to win. If you are going to run to win, you must train hard ; your food must be solid— steaks and chops being the chief items ; as you train your appetite will increase. But the good appetite must be satisfied with good food not by puddings and pies. The beef- steak of the Christian is the Bible. No Christian athlete can train on the daily papers, that would be starvation allowance lor him. Pies and puddings may not do much harm to a second- rate runner, but they will effectually prevent him becoming first- rate. Be careful of the atmosphere you breathe. No theatres or anything ot that kind must be indulged in ; and for the Christian athlete the atmosphere must be heavenly— must be that of prayer. , , , . . „ Mind you start well, and when you have started never, never look back. Pay no attention to the remarks of the onlookers on either side, but just press toward the mark, for the remarks only confuse you, decrease your pace, and spoil your judg- Mind you enter for the race. No one may run to. win unless his entry fee be paid. In the Christiau race no fee has to be paid, and Christ never turns any away. The Lord Jesus Christ is trainer, leader, guide. . " So run, that ye may obtain. And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown but we an incorruptible"- 1 Cor. ix. 25. " A crown of life."- Jas. i. 12. " A crown of righteousness."— 2 Tim. iv. 8. " A crown of glory. — 1 Pet. v. 4. " Behold, I come quickly. Hold that fast which Thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
