W HAT A WONDERFUL promise is found in the blessed words, “the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” This is the life that makes one love the Lord all day long as well as to walk with and worship Him. With this life we can see in all of nature His marvelous handiwork. When you trust the Lord with your life, soul and heart, the Holy Spirit makes you into a wonder ful servant of Christ as He did with D. L. Moody, James M. Gray, Billy Sunday and all of the others. These men were just ordinary folks, but the secret was that they gave themselves over to our blessed Saviour and He transformed them into new creatures. This metamorphosis is the change which takes place when God buries clay in the ground and later a sap phire is formed, or when God buries black carbon in the ground and later a diamond comes forth. It is the miraculous change that takes place when an ugly bug, crawling around
in the green scum pond, climbs a reed and later a beautiful dragon fly comes forth. It is the same with a caterpillar which weaves a coffin around itself later to bring forth a lovely butterfly. It may have gone in yellow; but it comes out red. It went in crawling; but it comes out flying. It went in with fourteen legs and comes out with six. The Lord Jesus Christ invites us to do the same as we turn ourselves over to Him. The Holy Spirit changes us into the kind of a person the Lord wants us to be. If you want to be something for God, just turn your life over to Him. He will give you eternal life. This is a life which allows you to live forever with God, and eventual ly you will be conformed to His blessed image.
Christ is the Light of life. When He comes in, the darkness goes out. Will you let Him have you? If you do, you will be glad for all eternity that you did, for He will make you into a shin ing light and you will burn as the stars forever and ever. DR. WALTER L.
