Guidance and strength for the way; Power for each moment of weakness, Hope for each moment of pain, Comfort for every sorrow, Sunshine and joy after rain. God is in every tomorrow, Planning for you and for me; E’en in the dark will I follow, Trust where my eyes cannot see, Stilled by His promise of blessing, Soothed by the touch of His hand, Confident in His protection, Knowing my life-path is planned. —The PhUippine Evangelist. 19. The Only Settled Place “The Lord looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men” (Psa. 33:13). A noted scientist recorded the im pressions of his first and only exper ience of a1" earthquake. He was in the house, which began to shake, making furniture topple and walls crack. He ran into the street, but the ground rocked underneath his feet. He saw fissures in the roadway wide enough to swallow him up! Buildings collapsed. The earth rumbled. And then he looked up! Heaven was quiet and stable, the only settled place in a world of chaos. —A London Journalist. 20. The Complement of Calvary “When the day of Pentecost was fully come, . . . they were all filled with the Holy Ghost” (Acts 2:1, 4). • Pentecost is the complement of Cal vary. Without Pentecost, Calvary would have been ineffective to redeem a lost world. The Jewish feast of Pentecost was dependent on the Passover, its date being fifty days after that event. Had there been no Passover, there could have been no Pentecost. So also, had there been no Calvary, there could have been no day of Pentecost. Calvary opened the fountain from which all the blessings of Pentecost flowed. —J. Oswald Sanders. 21. The Two Extremes "Lest peradventure the Spirit of the Lord hath taken him up, and cast him upon some mountain, or into some val ley” (2 Ki. 2:16). The man who has the Spirit has to heware of two extremes—the mountain and the valley. He may be lifted up to such a height of ectstasy as to become impractical; he may be cast down into such a depth of self-abasement as to become morbid. A man without the1 Spirit is in neither , of these dangers. . . But the man of the Spirit, like Paul, has both his third heaven and his thorn. —^George Matheson.

22. Fearing No Evil “I will fear no evil: for thou art" with me” (Psa. 23:4). Behold, how independent of outward circumstances the Holy Ghost can make the Christian! Are you looking for ward to poverty? Fear not . . . Do you expect to suffer long nights of lan guishing and days of pain? , . . That bed may become a throne to you. You little know how every pang that shoots through your body may be a refining fire to consume your dross—a beam o f glory to light up the secret parts of your soul.—Charles Haddon Spurgeon, 23. The Bank and File “We are laborers together with God; ye are God’s, husbandry, ye are God’s building” (1 Cor. 3:9). God’s declared plan is, and always was, to use the disciple as a witness for Him and a winner of souls. There never was or will be a body of or dained preachers large enough to evan gelize this world without the help of the great body of disciples. Generals and captains may plan a campaign and conduct an engagement, but it is the rank and file that do the marching and the fighting.—A. *T. Pierson. 24. Why Christ Came “ Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure. Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of V V Dept. K.B. 156 Fifth Avenue, New York, N. Y. V V SERVICE AND SUPPLIES FOR CHRISTIAN WORK
