I give Thee back the life I owe
That in thine ocean depths its flow
May richer, fuller be.


This many-sided, all-embracing love is the type of love His
followers are pledged to yearn for and to seek earnestly to
express. The love of Christ found three great expressions--in
giving, in service, in sacrifice.

If we, Christian women, are to reproduce Christ's spirit of love,
then giving, service, sacrifice must be dominant in our lives.

How wonderfully and fully the Christ gave of all that He had--Himself.
He needs our gifts to-day, ourselves, our talents, our money. Home
Missions means a life to be lived, the full, glad giving of thought,
prayer, money, that His love may be made known to all the weary,
oppressed, ignorant, waiting, suffering ones in our land.


"Christ gives the best.
And in His service as we're growing stronger
The calls to grand achievement still increase.
The richest gifts for us, on earth or in heaven above,
Are hid in Christ. In Jesus, we receive the best we have."


The Christ-love was expressed in service. From the time that He went
forth to be "about His Father's business" we see him always serving
to the utmost of His strength with no thought of rest, or comfort.
