He gave me such a trust as children ,. place In tender hands that soothe them in the night; Re let me look into my Father’s face In simple faith that all He did was ,right. S q , when at last I came to lay my will . Freely upon God’s altar steps of prayer, I learned such precious things to ask, and still .1 learn to ask, and to receive them there. —Ruby Weyburn Tobias. The Best Help “ Yea, I will help thee” (Isa. 41:10). This guarantees us aid in cases- where we cannot act alone. The Lord aays, “I w ill help thee.” Strength with in is supplemented by help without. God can raise us up allies in our war fare if so it seems good in His sight; and even if He does not send us hu- fhan assistance, He Himself will be at our side, and this is better still. —Charles Haddon Spurgeon. Stepping Stones “ I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus” (Phil. 3:14). Climbing is hard work, but every rung and every step lead closer to the goal. If we are well prepared, climb ing w ill be the only important thing in our life. Some one has said, “Work becomes play if you find joy in it.” That is also true in climbing the greater heights in our Christian life. Do not be afraid of obstacles, but make the obstacle the stepping stone in your climb.—A. Huber. By pis Enabling “And I thank Jesus Christ our Lord, who hath enabled me” (1 Tim. 1:12). Somehow we all put such a light estimate on the power of the Lord to enable us to do the task to which He calls us. We first of all are overcon fident in ourselves; and when self fails, as will always be the case, we are so reluctant to rely on the strong arm of the Lprd . . . None of us had one thing to do with acquiring the organs by which we speak, or hear, or see; and yet we rely upon the power of these human instruments as though by them we were infallible. God would have us learn that the One who is able to create is far more powerful and intelligent than the one who is able only to employ. —Hilland H. Stewart. 14.

However, he regained consciousness, gradually re covered his health, and had arrived at Camp Butner only that day. “ He was gloriously saved that night, and told us of a sweetheart irf New Jersey who had been praying for his conversion.
