smith based his mes sage on the words of job stand stilt and consider the wonderful works of god the wonderful works of him that hath perfect knowledge and the account of daniel his windows being open towards jerusalem he prayed three times a day and gave thanks be fore his god we live in a mad world of hurrying hither and thi ther busy witn this and that of- ten too busy to stop and consider from whence we came where we are going too busy to pause and consider the works of god all ab out us the wonderful works of the god that hath perfect know ledge and if we are too busy to do this then we are indeea too busy and it will pay us to cut our progim somewhere else and take time out to consider the ways of god the pause that refresh- es is a well known physical slors gan and nowhere does it appjy more thoroughly than in the spir itual realm wait on the lord and he shall renew thy strength open your windows toward god and offer your prayers of thanks and gratitude to him and receive strength and courage guidance and blessing on your way if job could say stand still and consider the wonderful works of god surely we can we plan our homes so that our windows open to that which is best why not open the windows of our souls to that which is highest and best as christians we should easily know that this world even with all mans turmoil i gods creation and all men and women boys and girls black brown or white are all his by right of his creative powers he claims them as his ownrr in his provi dence he has made provision for them all in his loye he hasjnade a way of salvation for them for- giveness for their disloyalty to him and a way back but he needs our cooperation gods laws that made telephone radio televi sion etc possible have always been here a long long time yet how recent has mans cooperation made them usable to man how soon wil man cooperate with god- to find a way to make gods greater blessings available to the hungry naked and oppressed people who are looking so longing ly to us we who have the goods and the gospel the means yes even the brain and the brawn often the heart if only we could know how urgent is the need for our even ago nizing uttermost cooperation 9o let us open our windows toward god in gratitude and thanks for his many blessings in intercession for others less fortunate than we in petition that man would heed and would help god to have his blessings material and spiritual spread and shared that is what god is looking to us for one cannot easily forget the sen tence in a letter received a tew years ago telling of the experience of a young family in their first con tact with this their new land of hope it had been very cold and very hard the sentence summed it up in a way that suggested it was not easy to understand cold and hungry in canada where they have everything and there are others like them in our midst no fault of their own so stand still and consider count your blessings gratefully and open your windows wide toward god remembering the words of jesus inasmuch as ye have done in unto one of the least of these ye have done it unto me the choirs anthem was send forth thy light and thy truth let them lead me mr v stein and mr alfred tost sang hold thou my hand dear lord at the evening service rev john m smiths subject was the con flict of the old and the new as christians where should we be true to the old and where take up the new wben do we believe it is for good to break with tradition even bringing conflict between the v fad and the new we should hold tost to the old when it serves gods purpose when it is something that natters and is solid and fulfils his will when it is something trivial and hindering gods real purpose in the world it must be dropped even at a cost traditional though it may be when jesus called mat thew the tax collector to follow jrtrri he was conflicting with the old caste system which was holding his real work back he made a break with the old answering the criticism with they that are whole need not a physician but they that are sick i came not to call the righteous but sinners to repent ance let ns watch that our christian tradition our faith of our fathers is on solid ground serving gods purpose and will and not lulling us into a righteous satisfaction as that of the scribe and pharisees which jesus con demned mr v stein sang
