He surrounds us with boys and girls who never think about their souls at all, and they persuade us that saying prayers and reading the Bible, and going to Church or Chapel, is all very dull and stupid. We must have a jolly time, and enjoy ourselves, and whatever we do, must never turn "pi," or be a prig. Then lessons, and games, and treats all follow each other so quickly that we feel we haven't time to think about God. We are too busy, too occupied, too full of interesting plans and purposes to think about our souls. The Devil takes care to keep us busy. What can we do? Only one thing. Come straight to the Lord Jesus Christ, kneel down in any quiet corner, ask Him when we go to bed at night, and when we get up in the morning to take our soul into His loving keeping. He will do the rest. He will remind us just in time before we are going to give way to temper, before we're going to tell a lie; He will give us courage to stand up for the right, and to refuse to join in any wrong doing, and He will give us sunshine and happiness in our souls. We are told that "He is able to keep what is committed to Him." He will never fail us. God has loved our souls so much that He sent Christ to save them from the Devil's hold and power. He will wash them in His precious Blood and hold them in His keeping till He calls them to the golden Unseen Land above. Will you to-day give your soul, your heart to God? May He help you to do so.

WHAT BIBLE SCENE IS THIS?] CHAT II ——— "His Workmanship" "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." (Ephesians 2.10) [Illustration: THE POTTER. Jeremiah 18.2-4.] CHAT II "We are His Workmanship" "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." (Ephesians 2.10) HAVE you ever made anything? I am sure you have. It may have only been a paper boat, or a doll's frock, but you were very proud of it at the time. Perhaps one of you may have made a real toy boat and taken it down to the pond to sail it. How anxious you were to see if it was a success or a failure! How pleased you were when some grown up person took it into his hand and looked at it, and said, "It does you credit!" Think how busy people are, all over the world, making things—watches, clocks, motors, aeroplanes, guns, books, pictures, machines of all sorts and sizes.
