THE day is coming when each of us must stand before God, when the world wherein we lived and sorrowed and rejoiced will be no more. It is but a little while, and this great end will have come; the pleasures of this life are but for a season, and its distresses are passing swiftly away; let us then ask ourselves, How shall it be with us in eternity? What account shall we render to God?
The way in which we answer this question this present moment gives a very fair index to our future. For some answer it with a shrug of the shoulders, others with a heavy sigh, while a few can say, “He who will sit upon the judgment seat, hung for me upon the cross. He is my Saviour and my Friend.”
