Be near me now, and let me see The “afterward” o f gain I O Man of Sorrows, Thou wast once Forsaken and alone— Be near me now, and draw my heart In love unto Thine own! — E . M a r g a r e t C l a r k s o n . Praise God that the Man o f Sorrows is your risen and exalted Saviour. APR IL 22 The Risen Saviour’s Question “ What manner o f communications are these that ye have one to another” t (Lk. 24:17). Instead o f listening only to the testi mony o f the Eternal Spirit in the Word, the disciples had allowed their minds to get thoroughly down under the action and influence of outward circumstances . . . Does it not sometimes happen, that you and I, in like manner, get down under the power of things seen and temporal, instead o f living in the light o f the W ord? And do we not at such moments stand in need of a risen Saviour’s challenge ? . . . Our spirit ual eyes are holden, and we do not take knowledge o f the Blessed One, who, in His tender, faithful love, is at our side; and He has to challenge our vagrant hearts with His pointed and powerful question: “What manner o f communications are these that ye have” ? —Things New and Old. Pray that among believers, in every cir cumstance o f life, there may be the recog nition o f the presence o f the Lord Jesus Christ. APR IL 23 Whose Is the Yoke? "Understanding what the will o f the Lord is" (Eph. 5 :17). It seems a very terrible thing for the soul to yield itself, wholly and unreserved ly» to the will o f Christ. “What is going to happen? What about tomorrow? Won’t He put a very heavy burden upon me, if I yield, if I take the yoke?” Ah, you have not seen my Master; you have not looked into His face; you have not realized His infinite love to you. Why, God’s will for you means your fullest happiness. . . . The value of any promise depends upon the promiser; and so is it with the will. Whose will is it? Whose yoke is it? “My yoke,” says the gentle, loving Jesus. “ Take my yoke upon you.” T o take His yoke is cheerfully to accept His will for us, not only in the present moment, but through the whole future. He has mapped it out. — E v a n H . H o p k in s . Praise God fo r His loving care o f the Bible Institute o f Los Angeles fo r more than a quarter o f a century. Ask that blessing may be granted to every donor who, yielded to the will o f God, is helping to make possible the school’s continued ministry. APR IL 24 The Anthem of Life “Add to your faith” (2 Pet. 1 :5). The word “add” is changed in our Re vised Version to “supply,” and the word “supply” is the clue to it all. The word “supply” is the word for chorus. The Christly life is just a lavish chorus; for it is a thing of glad music. Our whole life may be one glad anthem, all the parts to be supplied. . . . Haydn, who wrote . . . Crea tion,, was brought in, as an old man, to Vienna in 1898, to listen to his own music. When the chorus, “ Let There Be Light,” was rendered, the people rose and cheered.
