  The church, the Lord's called out army. Be a true soldier, now is the time. In the spring it will be too muddy; in the summer it will be too hot; in the fall too busy; in the winter too cold and so it goes. Some day it may be too late to pray, to sing a hymn, to go to church, to be a blessing, to go to heaven but not too late to be dead. The wise say "Behold, now is my hour, my chance."
