When some cloud that overshadows Hides the Father’s face from view, Oh, it’s well then to remember, He hath blessed us hitherto. Looking back the long years over, What a wearied path! And yet, All the way His hand has led us, Placed each hindrance we have met, Given to us the pleasant places, Cheered us all the journey through; Passing through the deepest waters, He hath blessed us hitherto. —Moody Church News. NOVEMBER 8 Purposeful Suffering “ I f we suffer, we shall also reign with him ” (2 Tim. 2:12). The sweetest music to the heart of thy God is the ripeness of thy soul for sacri fice, the moment when thou art able to say, “ I am now ready to be offered.” At such a moment all the sorrows of life are justified, sanctified. The minor chords get a meaning and receive a vindication when the harpers stand around Mount Zion in praise of the sacrificial Lamb. Knowest thou not that this was from the outset the goal of thy being—to be made perfect through suffering? . . . It was for this that thy first hope was shaken—that thou might- est reach Olivet by the steps of Calvary. The wilderness of the Son of Man is bet ter than the garden of Adam. The morn ing stars sang together over thine untried nature; but there awaits thee a yet grander music—when the harps of God shall pro claim that thou hast conquered through the cross.— G eorge M ath eson . "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name” (John 1:12). The wonder of the grub is that some where within it lurks the splendor and colorings and life of the golden butterfly; the wonder of the seed is that within it lies buried the bud and blossom; the won der connected with me is that wrapped up in me, under many a covering, are the everlasting powers of a son of God. — D avid G regg . Christ is not only the life before God as the ground of our acceptance; He is the life within us as the divine spring and energy of all spiritual development. — E va n H opkin s . NOVEMBER 10 Joy in the Word “I rejoice at thy word, as one that find- eth great spoil” (Psa. 119:162). It is a common temptation of Satan to make us give up the reading of the Word and prayer when our enjoyment is gone, as if it were of no use to read the Scrip tures when we do not enjoy them. In order to enjoy the Word, we ought to continue to read it. The less we read the Word of God, the less we desire to read it. — G eorge M uller . Sow the Bible in the world, and show the Bible in your life.—T . B aird . NOVEMBER 9 Divine Sonship
