Perhaps a more accurate render ing of the text would be: "Permit us not to be led into temptation." In the ordinary sense in which we use the word, God does not lead us into temptation. When a man is led into temptation he is, "drawn by his own lusts and enticed." This prayer, "lead us not into temptation," is one which we all need to pray daily. And when we pray this prayer, if we are sincere and honest about it we will stay AWAY from temptation, out of its way. Ruskin says, "No one can honestly and hopefully ask to be delivered from temptation unless he has honestly and firmly deter mined to keep out of it!" A young man was talking to a pilot on a great river steamer. "How long have you been a. pilot on this river?" he asked. "Twenty five years," replied the pilot Said the young man: "Then you must know every rock and bank and sand bar in the river." The old pilot smiled and said: "Oh, no, I don't; but I know where the deep water is."

ALL we need to know are the ways of clean living and safely, and keep to them! The wise person will not need lessly risk himself or herself in places of danger. Those who need lessly expose themselves in places of danger; or who place themselves in peril by going into the ways of temptation, cannot claim the prom ise of Divine help. The surest way to avoid evil is to stay out of evil's way, and avoid its enticements. If you nave not a Church home, we cordially invito you to come and worship with us.

Once again we hear the song of the angels sounding through the air: "Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace, good will to men." How expectant the world waits for the fulfillment of this message. Universal peace and good will is not yet found. We come nearer to it at Christmas than any other time in the year. Oh, that it might continue every day. Once again we ponder, over the message and say, "Christ Jesus, thou shalt have room In my heart to live." There was no room for Jesus In the inn. Can it be said of us that we have no room in our hearts for Jesus? May it not be so. May the peace and Joy of Christ abide in your hearts at this season.
