out heaven with the span, and com­ prehended the dust of the earth in a measure” (Isa. 40:12); “The mighty God” (Isa. 9:é). Little do we realize the power that Nature has stored up all around us. Man, as yet, has* not learned how to utilize much of this power. At present, he must bè content to estimate the amount Of it. . . Back of all the vast sources of power -in the world about us stands God with unlimited power. If this God be our Father, then thè more we look at the power stored up in Nature, the more will our faith in­ crease in the One who created all this and yet dwells in our hearts. —Fred Hartley Wight*

14. The Name of the Lord “The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, arid is safe” (Prov. 18:10). Why this anxious thought and worry, In these days of stress and need? Surely He has not forgotten His own child to clothe and feed!/ He tyho spared not heaven’s. Treasure, , Seeks to draw thee to His side. Here; thoùgh famine rages ’round ' thpe, Jehovah-Jireh doth provide. In these last hard days of conflict, Do you fear lest wrong might win? Listen for the peal of triumph : Through earth’s cruel strife and din. Hosts of Satan, cannot conquer! Soon the Prince of Peace we’ll see! Hide beneath His blood-stained banner Jéhovah*Nissi, Victory!.' —Margaret Denison Armstrong. 15. Wasted Sorrow . “Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous; nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby” (Heb. 12:11). Take care that you do not waste your sorrow, that you do riot let the preeious gifts of disappointment, pain, loss, loneliness, or similar afflictions that edme into- your , daily life mar you instead of mending you. See that they send you nearer to God, and not that they drive you farther from Him. —Hugh Black. 16.; Spiritual Smoothness . “Being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all' things after .the counsel of his own ■ will: That we should be to the praise of his glory” .(Eph.. 1:11, 12). If the roughness which is less than one thousandth of an inch in height can increase measurably the drag of an airplane, how -perfect should we be in spiritual smoothness if ■we are not to be a drag upon the purposes of our God!—Amy Carmichael, 17. Gladness and Gloom “ God hath anointed thee with the oil,of gladness” (Heb.T:9). “He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquaint­ ed with grief” (Isa. 53:3). If we bring the palm tree into the presence of the Lord, that simply means the best things of life; rejoice over them, thank God for them; then He will make them richer still. And if we bring our willow, the dark, sad things, then He, whom Mary mistook to be the gardener, will change the weeping willow into the stately palm
