The greatest drawback to spiritual advancement to-day is the lack of spiritual observance in the home, we are apt to think the Church alone is the place for worship, it is a mistaken idea every house should be a house of God and we should there daily seek His guidance and forgiveness. There in the eventide of life, when the cares and burdens of earlier days are laid aside and we are awaiting the last release our fading eyes will catch a glimpse of the Glory land and we will hear the gracious message I have called thee by they name, thou art mine.
