wish us to go. We must watch our tongues that they do not speak any wrong words, and we must watch that in all that we think, in all that we say, and in all that we do, we please Jesus. “The spirit indeed is willing but the flesh is weak.” If we are true Christians, we desire more than anything else to follow Jesus. We mean to love Him always, to work for Him always, and to turn from everything that is wrong. But how many times we do not do things we mean to do, and how many times we do things that make us sorry: and we go to Jesus and we ask Him to forgive us. Our spirit is willing. In our heart, our very soul, we love Jesus, but the flesh is weak. The flesh is our sinful self, the old wicked heart, anything in this life that makes us do wrong. Sometimes we want to speak good words for Jesus. We would like to tell our brethren of His love, but we are not wise; we do not know the right words to say. “The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” That is, in our own selves, without Jesus we are very weak, we cannot do anything right. But He will give the Holy Spirit to help us, so we may be strong in Him, though we are in our own selves, without His spirit, very weak. He will help us be strong to do right, and wise to say the right word. Lena Chung, our Sacramento helper, who has been in service about one year, sends the following: John xiii., 34. “A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another.” What does this mean? Our Lord was on earth; His disciples had followed Him three years. Jesus knew His hour was come that He should depart out of this world unto the Father. The disciples had been with Him so long; they might know how to love God and follow Christ, but when their Light should go away then they would be troubled and offended because of the world. Jesus knew they would receive persecution; be cast out of the synagogues and despised and hated of men; so He gave them this new commandment that they should love one another in this world. I. We ought to love one another. It is our duty to obey this command. Some may say: he may be a Christian, but he is not my countryman, not near to me. I am a white man, he is black, or he is a yellow man, he does not belong to my family or friends. I will not love him. It can be no sin to hate him. Not so, my friends. It hath been said, “Thou shalt love thy neighbor and hate thine enemy.” But Christ tells us: “Love your enemies and bless them which curse you.” If so, we must love all who love God, and are trying to serve and please Him, whatever their place in life.
