If we’ll keep in close connection with our reservoir, the Lord Jesus, and with the house of life, our fellow-men—no leaks at either end—we shall know the sweet results in our own lives, and others will know of the blessed Master’s presence.

“THE SHORT ROAD | Psalms 119:97-105 | Eating, breathing, sleeping, exercising— this is the common road to bodily health and vigor. Food, air, rest, activity—this is the road to Christian growth and vigor: the food of the Word well chewed; the fresh air of the Holy Spirit breathed habitually; the rest of trusting God confidently, unquestioningly, in tight corners and everywhere else; the lending a warm, helping hand unstintingly to others. It’s an old road, and it leads straight to the goal.”
