IN OUR TEMPTATIONS
Every one is tempted, not even the holiness of the Son of God was exempted from it. Temptation is not sin, but the material out of which vice or virtue is formed. What a call to watchfulness, self-sacrifice, self -distrust! It drives the soui back on its support m prayer ; it makes the soul feel its own strength and security by God's help. , ; "Thou wilt.keep him m perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee; because he tnisteth m, Thee." And peace may come m the very midst of. temptation, the peace of a well-ordered security. W. C. E. NEWBOLT.
