The Way of Righteousness Is Life, January 1
My Consecration Today
In the way of righteousness is life; and in the pathway thereof
there is no death.
Proverbs 12:28
Another year now opens its fair unwritten pages before you. The
recording angel stands ready to write. Your course of action will deter-
mine what shall be traced by him. You may make your future life good
or evil; and this will determine for you whether the year upon which you
have just entered will be to you a happy new year. It is in your power to
make it such for yourself and for those around you.
Let patience, long-suffering, kindness, and love become a part of
your very being; then whatsoever things are pure and lovely and of good
report will mature in your experience.
Angels of God are waiting to show you the path of life.... Decide
now, at the commencement of the new year, that you will choose the path
of righteousness, that you will be earnest and true-hearted, and that life
with you shall not prove a mistake. Go forward, guided by the heavenly
angels; be courageous; be enterprising; let your light shine; and may
the words of inspiration be applicable to you—“I write unto you, young
men, because you are strong and have overcome the wicked one.”
If you have ... given yourself to Christ, you are a member of the
family of God, and everything in the Father’s house is for you. All the
treasures of God are open to you, both the world that now is and that
which is to come. The ministry of angels, the gift of His Spirit, the labors
of His servants—all are for you. The world, with everything in it, is
yours so far as it can do you good. Even the enmity of the wicked will
prove a blessing, by disciplining you for heaven. If “ye are Christ’s” “all
things are yours.”
