The Future of This Magazine.

By:
IF the Lord will, we hope to still carry on this Magazine in the coming year. We desire to thank the Lord for having made it His message to not a few precious souls. We trust the circulation of it will be largely increased in 1885. We shall ask the Lord continually for His guidance and help. In the coming year we purpose having one page at least devoted to the children. True stories of Christ’s dealings with the little ones will be inserted from time to time. We ask the prayers of Christians that God will help us in this work for Him. We do desire that God may speak through the pages of this little book to thousands of needy souls.
The year has gone―and the first volume has closed now. We are conscious that others might have done far better in this work than we have; but our prayer is that, if permitted to see another year, the fruits of experience may be gathered by our readers, and that the blessing of our God and Father may rest on even so little a work carried on in His name, and (we trust) for His glory.
