Objects: Two cardboard signposts, with names of familiar towns on each. Lesson: People are so much like signposts that I have given these real names. The one standing straight I have called Sam. The other which is leaning, ready to fall, is Silvester.

Object: A piece of paper 6 x 8 inches. (Fold twice, making the size 2 x 6 inches. In the section just below the middle fold print the word “ LOOK.” Leave enough of the bottom section to cover the “L ” in “ LOOK.” Above thé middle fold print the word “ SEEK.” Leave enough of the top section to cover the. “ S” in “ SEEK.” On this top flap print the letter “ M.” Fold all flaps in back of the word “ LOOK.” ) Lesson: On this piece of paper we see the word “ LOOK.” If we watch carefully the word will change to “ BOOK.” We will look into the Book of books, the Bible. We will read in Zephaniah 2 :1,2, “ Gather yourselves to gether . * . before the fierce anger of the Lord come upon you, before the day of the Lord’s anger come upon you.” As we look in the Book we see the
Signposts, like people, are not always trustworthy. Both of these signposts bear the names of familiar towns. If you were a traveler, unfamiliar with the road, you would confidently follow a signpost which was standing as straight as Sam stands. You would have no confidence in one which was leaning as Silvester leans. You would be afraid that the wind which had blown it over might have changed the direction in which it pointed. It is a foolish traveler who follows a leaning signpost. The people of God are His signposts, pointing the travelers of earth to Heaven. If we are to have the con fidence of those who pass along the roadway o f life, we must keep straight, and not be changed by the winds of the world. In the Bible we find a man named Habakkuk who reminds us of Sam Sign post. He was constantly pointing the people to God and warning them against the worship of idols. In Habak kuk 2:18 we read, “ What profiteth the graven image that the maker thereof hath graven it; the molten image, and a teacher of lies, that the maker of his work trusteth therein, to make dumb idols?” In the 20th verse of this same chapter, we find him pointing to God and saying, “ But the Lord is in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence before him.” I mentioned the fact that a signpost to be believed must be standing straight. I told you that Habakkuk was this kind of a man. Let us read what he said, “ Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labor of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall M A Y , 1 9 5 0

prophet was calling a sinful nation to repentance. Many times in the Bible we find the Lord calling people in sin to repent of their sin and turn to Him. Opening this paper further we see the word “ SEEK.” In the 3rd verse of this same chapter we read, “ Seek ye the Lord, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the Lord’s anger.” Watch the word “ SEEK” and see it change to the word “ MEEK.” The prophet was calling the people of that day to “ SEEK” the Lord and be “ MEEK.” Being meek is one way of being humble. It is important to know of God’s call ing His ancient people to repentance, and it is equally important to know that God is calling people today to re pent of their sins, and in meekness seek the Lord and His salvation.
