The same is truc of people.- We cannot be Christiar without obedience. 7%e season whien we think especi. à ally aboutthe Cross and the Resur. rection is' one which brings us face Io face with thee matter of obedience. When we 'explore the background of the Chri.,tian fâith and thecocým- ing of, C'hrst WC'Must cOn1sîder theI way of flic people of lIsràeL. The ioIy ScrïptLýrcs reveal God's plan for men and its relationship te them as an instrument of his revel- The prophets of old came again and again reminding ýhemn of Ci od's purpose for thcm. Thley continully substituted other things for humble suýrrender, but the prophets iooked to the time when God would estab- lîsh fiss mIe in ail men, and- write his iaws, upon the tablets of their hearts. "Away with your feasts, your fast-days and your sacrifices. To obey is better than sacrifice," they taught. -Thç sacrificesof God are a broben spirit and a contrite heart." they proclaimed. The idea Zvew that one would corne Who would iead God's people into the fuifiiiing of His purpose for them. In the fulness of time Jesus came. He carne experiencing humanity just as we do. It is too easy to think of Jesus as divine and because of hils divinity being 'able to see clear- ly and easily the purpose of God in bis life, fillîng that purpose easily because lof divine strengtb.* But in bis humanity Jesus knew the limit- ations of being human. If the hum- anity of Jesus mieans anything it means that fis way was not clearly revealed - lbe had to seek it. We look tt the various stages of his life and we sec that the 'way Ilad t o be sought.

He was scekinig Gods way for hum and scekiag to know the ways of men. A littie later as a youngman we scec hm struggling with temptai- lion. Would he 'gain a foliowing by pampering 'the desire of the, people for material thingÉs. Would ie daim the kin'dons> of the world, by com- prom1iig with cvii. When fie was tested ini this way, back came the answer, "60d is God, and right is ight ind wrong is wrong." Or' then thuewa the temptation to do the, ~petauirto throw himself down frn the pinntacie and show a mir- acillouls escape, but here again Jesus rcplied ln, Cffect, *"You must nôt ma-,ke senseless' experiments with the powevcr of Gotd. He saw quite ciceariy that if 11e produccd sensa- tions fie cotild bce a ainet day's ,vond- er. But flic sensat,ýionalist aeyçr ias;ts, It is thé hýrd way of service an'd. of suiffering which leads ta the Cross, but after the Cross to the crown. la ail1 the way there wa,,ssckingý; teflptation, but perfect obedliene. Most of us, like JeISus feel theé promptings to serve God buyt aiso the world. Continual y we stand at the cross-roads. The one, broad andi easy ta travel which takes us step by step away from Gods purpose. The ôther, the harder to travel, leading to the discovery of purpose aad fui- acss. AS we travel the road of life the way grows iacreasiagiy difficuit, but cvcry victory strcngtfens us for the ciimb which'is ahead. We too, must go tfrough the temptations of living for material tfings, compromise, social acclaim, and of popularity. In cvery stcp of the way wc necd to seeik God's purpose. We can oaly discov er it as we are obedient ta bis guidîng. The way may grow stecep and hard, but thcy that wait upon the Lord _shall renew their strcngth.. They shall mouait up with wings like. eagl es, they shail waik and not faint. - Flying, runniag. ,waikiag. -- How truc of life, how satîsfyiag the way, fow abundant the experience.- What peace in God!
