EVERY-DAY CHRISTIANITY

Real Christianity is earnest life-work. As electricity permeates steel, so it permeates every act and department of life. It gives a vigorous impulse to every noble quality. It makes every toil honest and cheerful. It gives courage and fortitude in the midst of sorrow and affliction.

Christianity is a sublime force. It makes a new man of the old. It throws meaning and grandeur into every small act of Christian duty and benevolence. It makes men honest. It makes them tender-hearted and kind. It makes the care-worn, and weary, and afflicted, patient. It makes home a holy of holies to social life. It makes the judge just, the merchant honest, the servant faithful, the student diligent, the wealthy generous, the poor industrious and cheerful, the strong watchful and helpful; it lights the heart of the dying saint with hopeful flashes of the life everlasting.
