WE are all journeying. The rich man, the beggar, the old man " peeping for his grave," the child bounding to his play, the soldier on the battlefield, the sailor on the battleship-all are traveling, but whither?
What will the end be? is the question asked in all things. Ten thousand fold more serious does the question become when it relates to eternity and its solemn issues_ And it becomes still more serious when we consider that none of us knows when the end of that journey-the journey to eternity-will be reached.
A case in point is the tube accident, which happened in Paris some years ago. Little did eighty-six of the passengers on that ill-fated train know that it was to be their last ride, and that it was a journey, not to their homes in the suburbs, but a journey to death and eternity!
You may be with them before to-morrow's sun sets in the west.
Are you ready?
The end must come, whether it be to-day, next year, or fifty years hence, but come it must.
Are you ready?
Where will you spend Eternity?
A party of evacuees had been brought to a place considered safe. But the danger-zone of war was drawing uncomfortably near. So the authorities ordered them to pack up their belongings, and get aboard a steamer to be taken to a safe spot. When these evacuees got aboard this steamer, they knew they were going a journey, but they did not know
where they were bound for. What a sad condition to be in? But that is just the condition of very many going the journey of life, but not knowing the end. Perhaps it may be your condition.
The careful perusal of this little book will tell you what the end of your journey will be. Read it carefully.
