HOW TO THINK RIGHTLY

Archibald McLellan

We copy the following item from the Evening Star of Washington, D. C.:—

With the statement that "our thoughts are the rudder of our life," the Rev. John Reed Shannon began a series of New Year sermons to young people at the Metropolitan M. E. Church. He described thoughts as "forces more real than granite mountains. Low, groveling thoughts lay terrible assessments upon the body. Catastrophes in moral life come because evil thoughts have been cherished. The tree falls in the storm, its trunk breaks asunder and reveals the fact that decay has been going on within the tree, weakening it. Men fall because moral decay, in the form of evil thoughts, has been going on in their minds.
