breast edwin markham the lovely virtue so courage has been described as the lovely virtue it calls forth universal admiration wars and accidents re veal theirevalence or physical cour- age times of crisis bring moral cour age into prominence courage does not mean the absence of fear but the control of fear where did elijah get his courage was it called out by cir cumstances or was he the possessor of a higher quality of life elijahs cour age on carmel was not sudden he was prepared for a test for some time he had been aware of the enmity of ahab and jezebel and his action was taken in full knowledge of danger for elijah the issue was so clear between right and wrong that he called the people to follow him in re pairing the altar that had been brok- en down there could be no conceal ment he and his followers were in the minority and the party following the king and queen were in the major- elijah cared more for right than for numbers fating a test 3135 elijah is known as the prophet fire the origin ol the name may be due to the fact that the fire fell upon theitar but elijahs own spirit is aptly described by the metaphor fire he was a prophet with an intense nature who did nothing by halves the building of the altar and the soaking it with water was a dramatic object lesson it seemed that he per sonally handicapped himself to make lus triumph all the greater today power is not judged by miracles such as making fire bum up water the test of courage comes when political leaders go beyond the ignorance of a crowd when spiritual seers break the shackles of eccleslasticlsm and when scientists inventors and poets follow the leading of oods spirit in scorn of custom and convention the day will never come when courage will not be necessary or when courage will not be ud mired eujaaa prayer mtt ttio source of elijahs courage may bo discerned xxomhls sxayer faith tn god removed his fear 4 n at tfae time ox the ottering of the evening sacrifice elijah prayed to the god of l israeli he renewed his connaltanens a servant of ood he forgot about fall own reputation and security and pray ed only that oods wul might be re- vealedl it was an unselfish prayer elijah was caring more for the moral and spiritual welfare of the people than his position as a prophet in is rael his prayer was quickly answered startling as was the outward answer there was a deeper response in the hearts of the people it is in changed human attitudes that the most lasting results from prayer are to be found prayer gives a new sense of direction a greater willingness to forgive stronger determination to endure gladder oonsent to sacrifice praying people develop greater sensitivity to spiritual values and readier respons iveness to duty whoever rises from his knees a better man his prayer is answered convict- after the demonstration on mount carmel the people fell on their faces and said the lord be is the ood the lord he is the ood how do we gain certainty in spiritual conviction reasoning and argument may take us some distance we are influenced by the friends we meet and the books we read pinal certainty however comes through experience when we ven ture all trusting god and discovering that obedience is the secret of power we gain victory over our doubts there are people who believe in ood on the theory of probability but that is not a secure basis christians believe in ood because they have found the spirit of ood at work in their lives through jesus christ the mature christian wlu no more doubt christ than hei can doubt his own right hand it is difficult to explain this certainty of conviction to young people in the storm and stress period of doubt they have to live their way through to firm faith it is an encouragement how ever that the great souls moses eli jawsalah paul augustine and wes ley foiight their way through to a resolute faith and were able to share their faith with many others courage cannot be developed like etiquette must be rooted deep in faith courage is a thing of the heart attacks made upon christianity today call chris tiana to renew their strength and tc demonstrate once again that human courage has a divine
