The â€" Bernard‘s garden was the setting for the first presentation, and despite the heat and humidity, the audience laughed, cried and clapped hands at the appropriate times. _The second was held at Heddington Ave. (off Eglinton), home of Miss High in the Andes mountains lie the remains of Inca gold refineries. They are mounds in which gold was placed, under which were lit fires open to the wind. The wind blew incessantly at those altitudes fanning the fires necessary to refine the gold.

But whether our trials are large or small there is a phrase in the Bible that reveals God‘s attitude to these things. "For he doth not â€" afflict willingly nor grieve the children â€" of men." \_For the child of God, He orders and allows each trial in order to take the dross out of our characters. There is not one of us who does not need this chastening of the Lord. God‘s main concern with us is that we might grow to be more like His beloved Son, Jesus. Often our goal for living conflicts with the goal God has for us and we feel confused and frustrated. But if we will commit ourselves, our lives, to Him and rely upon Him and be confidant in Him we shall find a peace in the midst of all our winds of adversity for He has loved us with an everlasting love.
