One day he was reading St. Luke 9 and came to the pass- age where the young man said, “Lord, I will follow Thee, but let me first go bid them farewell which are at home at my house! And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough and looking back, is fit for the King- dom of God.” By the grace of God this passage went to his heart, and he determined to come and see me, though I lived 200 miles away.

AHIUUIn VVlllUfl is a great silk weaving centerfiafidv 118:1] the Parable of “Sayyid the Silk Weaver.” A young persian, who was a Bahai preach- er, was present and was so much interested in the parable that he became a diligent.stuq_ent_ of the New Testament. He sat 'for some moments saying: “He i am. How beautiful! Yes, to be sure: He is, 1 Wonderful, Wonderful!”â€"The Youth’s Cmmmm' -v vuucono. "II“ V IIVUo One who heard this story was so struck by the thought that he could not rest until he found a Hebrew scholar able to tell him whether it really was true that Hebrew verbs are conjugated in this way. He sought out a scholar and put his question. “Yes," said the scholar, “the Hebrew verb is con- jugated as you say. Why do you ask?” So the other told him what the man had said to the school children. “Well!” exclaimed the scholar with radiant face,’ “I have been studying Hebrew forty years, and never once has it occurred to me that Hebrew verbs have that wonderful and beautiful significance!” Then he added: “That is the way 'to look at life. Say to yuursvll’. lonking Hp tn Hod. 'HP is;' tlwn look at, your neighbor and say, ‘You are;’ last of all think of vourself A MAN OF HIGH CHARACTER BUT ORDINARY EDU- cation was addressing a roomful of school children, and he said to them: “All of you know the verb which says, I am, thou art, he is; and all of you know that verbs in English, French, German, Italian and Latin run in that way: I love, thou lovest, he loves; or I walk, thou walkest, he walks. But do you know that that is a very bad way for a verb to run? Do you know that the old Hebrew people arranged their verbs the other way around: He is, thou are, I am?" Then he added: “That is the way to look at life Sav Read with the expectation of the guidance of God’s Spirit! It is God's Spirit alone that can make the Word 3. living power in our hearts and lives. Notice how earnestly in Psalm 119 David prays that God will teach him and open his eyes and give him understanding and incline his heart to God’s ways. As you read, remember that God’s Word and God’s spirit are inseparable. Read with the firm purpose of keeping the Word day and night in your heart and in your life! The whole heart and the whole life must come under the influence of the Word. David said: “0 how I love Thy lay! It is my meditation all the day.” And so in the midst of his daily work the believer can cherish God’s Word in his heart and meditate on it: Accept God’s Word with all your heart, and pray that God may teach you to understand it and to carry out its precepts in your life! Meditate a moment in silence on the thought that the words come from God himself. Bow in deep reverence. Be silent unto God. Let him reveal his Word in your heart. Read with careful attention! ' If you read the words carelessly, thinking that you can grasp their meaning with your human understanding, you will use the words superficially, and not enter into their depths. When some one tries to explain anything wonderful or beautiful to us, we give our entire attention to try to undersand what is said. How much higher and deeper are God’s thoughts than our thoughts! “As the heaven is higher than the earth, so are my thoughts higher than your thoughts.” We need to give our undivided attention to understand even the superficial meaning of the words. How much harder to grasp the spiritual meaning! Read with the expectation of the guidance of God’s Spirit! ._ IV- .19 n ' ___ ptism. Hey is now a keen worker for the I Bishop 1.3 .Liutou.

PAGE 2 A MAN WENT TO SEE HIS PHYSICIAN FOR ADVICE as to how to be cured of the habit of snoring. “Does your snoring disturb your wife ?” asked the M. D. “Does it disturb my wife?” echoed the patient. “Why, Doc, it disturbs the whole congregation!” BISHOP LINTON, OF THE CHURCH MISSIONARY SO- ciety. has an article in The Church Missionary Outlook ex- pressing his conviction that a church is coming into being in Persia. There is no mass movement, and the harvest is not so abundant as in other lands, but a better harvest is being reaped each year. The first two Persian clergy were ordained in 1922, and a provisional constitution for the Church of Persia was drawn up. It has meant a great deal for Chris- tians to have their own church. They are nvangelizing their own people. ONE DAY LAST YEAR A SUDAN ESE GIRL RAN AWAY from the United Presbyterian Girls’ School in Khartum North. Some of the Christian girls visited her in her house in 0m- durman and urged her to return. “Never!” she said. “They are forcing me to be a Chris- tisn.” “Why, how so?” the girls asked. “Were we compelled to be Christians?” “No,” came the admission, “but, b-b-butt, how can I help from being a Christian with everyone praying for me so!" “Yofi are praying for open doors. But there are no doors!” For The Quiet Hour It is not so much where you live As how. and why and when you live. That answers in the affirmative, Or maybe in the negative, The question, Are you fit to live? It is not so much where you live As whether while you live you live, And to the world your highest give, And so make answer positive That you are truly fit to live.
