Our Need these Earnest Days

I feel overwhelmed with a sense of the need all around. Through the kind help of friends I have been able this month to send forty large parcels of Gospels, “Messages,” etc., to the soldiers and the sailors, besides giving away thousands in Exeter. When you read the extracts from some letters I have received you will see how great the need is.
Extract from a letter sent from the Front to a Christian in England: —
“It is a great pleasure to know that God is always near to protect and keep those who are His. It is wonderful to see how near He allows some of our men to get to death and then snatches them back.....
“I have no fear of what lies in front of me, and shall be always smiling and looking up to Him, who alone worketh great marvels.”
