Sunday School Lesson
JESUS RESPONDS TO FAITH
.Sunday, March 18.—Matt. 13:15 3-1'6,
12
Golden Text
Ask, and it shall be given you;
seek, and ye shall find; knock, and
it shall be opened unto you. (Matt.
7:7.)
Is God ever hindered by men? He
is omnipotent, and can do whatever
He will. But the Scriptures, show
that He lets Himself be hindered by
men, for, together with His own sov
ereign omnipotence, He gives- men
free will; they may trust Him, or
oppose Him; and when they oppose
Him He cannot do for tsiem what He
could.
Thue, the Lord Jesus Christ came
to His. own home town, Nazareth,
and those who had known Him from
boyhood gave Him a cold reception.
He would have done many things
for them gladly—but He couldi not.
“And He did not many mighty
works there because of their unbe
lief.”
The loving longings of God’s own
heart in our behalf may be hinder
ed, dissappointed, blocked by our
unbelief.
Yet our faith in Christ may not
always mean that He does for us
just what we think' He ought to
John the Baptist had great faith in
Christ; he pointed men to Him as
the Lamb of God. When John was
cast into prison by Herod, he doubt
less prayed' earnestly for deliver
ance; he may even-have counted up
on Christ’s coming to him and set
ting him free. Instead, God let
John be beheaded. And later, ac
cording to tradition, all the apostles
but Judas lost their lives as marytrs.
God does for us, in response to
our faith, not what we may thing is
best, but what He knows is best.
>On the other hand, the Lord of
ten does far better and more for us
than our fait’h claims. When He
was in a desert place with a multi-
tdue of 5,0 00 men, beside women and
children, He aked His disciples to
give them something to eat. They
said this was impossible. Their
faith in Christ’s miracle-working
power seemed to have left them.,
But He took a littje noys lunch,
five loaves and two fishes, “and
looking up to heaven, He blessed,
and bake, and gave the loaves to
His disciples, and the disciples to
the multitude. And they did all eat,
and were filled,” and twelve bask
ets full of fragments were left over.
Christ often creates our faith, or
increase our faith, by doing for us
something our faith would never
have dared to claim. He is “able to
do exceeding abundantly above all
that we ask or think” Eph. 3:20.)
In a storm on the Sea of Galilee,
as the disciples were crossing in a
boat, they saw the Lord IJesus com
ing toward them, in the dead of
night, “walking on the sea,” They
“cried out for fear,” until the Lord
spoke to them: “Be of good cheer;
it is I; be not afraid.”
Impulsive Peter then put the
Lord to the test! If it was really
Christ, he said, “Bid me come unto
Thee on the water,” The Lord ans-
wered with the single word ‘Come.”
Peter's faith was- such that he
left the boat and “walked on the
water, to go to iJ'esus.” And he
really walked—not, as someone has
said, on the water, out on his
Lord’s word “Come.”
Then Peter suddenly began to lose
faith, as he took his eyes off the
Lord and watched the waves, bois
terous from the wind. He was
afraid, began to sink, and cried out:
“Lord, save me. And immediately
Jesus stretched forth His hand and
caught him, and said unto him, O
thou of little faith, wherefore didst
thou doubt?”
“If we believe not, yet He abideth
faithful: He cannot deny Himself.”
(2 Tim. 2:13.)
Peter might have walked, un
sinking and unafraid, all the way
to Christ, and with Him back to the
boat again, if his faith had not wav
ered. Yet there was faith in the
cry to t'he Lord to save him.
A cry of fear, addressed to the
Lord, may be an expression of "faith
—not as much faith as we should
have, yet real faith.
When the disciples saw the mir
acle of the Lord walking on the wa
ter and that 1-Ie enabled even Peter
to do this, they “worshipped Him,
saying, Of a truth Thou art the Son
of God.” Miracles do create faith
in Christ, in hearts that are open to
God. But they fail to do> in the
hearts of those who are incorrigibly
against God.
Countless miracles were wrought
by Christ during His earthly minis
try. We read that at this time the
people of that place “sent out into
all that country round about, and
brought unto Him that they might
only touch the hem of his garment;
and as many as touched were made
perfectly whole.” Every one that
came to Christ for healing, or what
was brought to Christ, was healed.
“He is not a disappointment.”
But one of the greatest expres
sions of faith during His early life
time was that of the Byrophenician
woman, up in the coasts of Tyre and
Sidon. She was not an Israelite,
but a “woman of Canaan.” She cried
out to Him, calling Him “Lord” and
“son of David,” and asked that He
heal her daughter, “grievously vex
ed with a devil.”
The Lord’s immediate ministry at
that time was to God’s people Israel
not to the Gentiles. As He called
attention to this, she could not be
turned aside, but continued to cry,
“Lord, help me.” And finally the
Lord answered: “O, woman, great
is thy faith; be it unto thee even as
thou wilt. And her daughter was
made whole from that very hour.”
It was not that Christ was reluc
tant to help her. He was holding
true to the mission committed to
Him by His Father, for the Jews;
but He responded gladly to such
persistent, prevailing faith. And so
God loves to hear people say to Him
today, as did Jacob long ago: T will
not let Thee go, except Thou bless
me.”

Let’s help on with the good work,

Governments need lees of the guillotine and more of the spade.

There is nothing more dangerous to our national life than an
unreflective, uniformed democracy.

Unless the frost leaves the ground mighty sudden the fish

It will be a dark day when Canadian business gays “There are
more dollars in circulation. Let him grab who has the power and
let him keep who can.
***♦**<»
Will that committee allegedly investigating wage and indus

Naughty! We’ll slap your wrist with our lace fan!”
********
Is 'Canadian business hastening towards the day when the pace
is to be set by the incompetent and1 easy going rather than by the
efficient and the energetic?
It is high time for the hope of Canada, it’s average citizen, to
gird up the loins of its business mind to watch and be informed.
********
A BAD BEGINNING
Toronto has lots of money for ballyhoo, but not enough to pay
her school teachers as she should. Those banqueters and frolick-
ers should realize that the school teachers are paying a part of the
cost of their merriment. The Queen city is making a bad start on
its second century of civic life.
********
Mr. Stanley Baldwin’s recent words are worthy of the best
thought of every man who speaks the English language:
“If there is one thing certain to my mind, it is that if people
here bacome adherents of either communism or fascism in great
numbers the only end will be civil war. One thing, not only latent,
but blatant, in both of these creeds, is that they believe in force
as a means whereby they can .get their way and set up their dicta
torships. They further believe, as seen on the Continent,' that, hav
ing got into power, all free opinions must be suppressed by force.”
********
SIMPLY A SHAME
Our big sister, Toronto, has mighty little reason to be proud
of one way in which she has gone about balancing her budget. She
has tried to affect that desired end by slicing the salaries of her
patient, duty-doing school teachers. Let it be known that no body
of Canadian workers for the last five years have been more consid
erably generous of needy children than have been o-ur town and city
school teachers. Yet in face of this fact, just as the price of every
thing the teacher has to buy is. rising, Toronto cuts her teachers’
salaries.
********
WHERE’S THE HARM
Why is a man or a company to be blamed because it buys .goods
in large quantities?
Why is a man or a business firm to be blamed because it
buys so that it can sell at a profit?
Why is a man or a company to be blamed because it goes on
the market and employs labour at a price that labour agrees to take?
Where is the wrong in a man's or a firm’s letting it be known
by word of mouth, by town crier, by circular, by newspaper, by
radio or by any means whereby a man may make himself understood
that he has goods to sell at a definite price?* * *.* * * * *
That sober minded and well informed party, Bank of Montreal,
has this to say in its monthly business letter: “The trade barometer
has continued to. rise during the past four weeks, and still points
upward. All indicate improvement. Foreign commerce in
January rose in value 40 per cent, over the like month in 1933.
Staple and other commodities shared in the gain, and only the slow
movement of wheat prevented a still more striking increase, though
in the case of this cereal it is noteworthy that the price last month
averaged 65 cents per bushel against 44 i cents a year ago. The fa
vourable balance of foreign commerce in the elapsed ten months of
the fiscal year has now reached $13'5,924,000', a circumstance or
great value in stabilizing the Canadian dollar and supporting the
national credit.”
iSpeking of the Western Provinces this sober party continues:
“Provinces’ business conditions are better than a year ago, due
to better wheat prices, a feeling of greater confidence, and the need
of replenishing many articles. Employment figures are higher.”
The bank has this to say among other things of Ontario: “A
moderate increase in industrial activity is reported and operations
generally continue well above the level of a year ago. Steel plants
are more active and mining machinery supply houses are busier.
Automobile manufacturers are speeding up production of new mo
dels and most accessory plants are working overtime.”
In Great Britain imports have risen 20 per cent. A $5,000,0 0 0
increase over the returns of last year characterizes her Railway
traffic.
The bank is not hysterical in any degree but follows up its view
of the times with a feeling of calculated optimism.

The death of William Hugh Jam-

shock to everyone. |Mr. Jamieson
suffered from heart trouble a year
ago but partially recovered and had
been in .comparatively good health
until he suffered a second severe
attack. He was born in Hullett
Township 61 years ago. His bereav

Could Not Sleep at Night
Tired Out During the Day
Mrs. N. W. Lukowcy, Oakburn, Man., writes:—-
“After an operation I was left in a very weak and
run down condition. I could not sleep at night, and
would be all tired out during the day.
I tried all kinds of medicine, but none of them
helped mo until I used Milburn's II. & N. Pills. I
took two boxes and I am very thankful for the help
they gave me. I would strongly advise all those
being in a run down condition to give those Pills a
thorough trial.”

GRIMNESS
We are reminded of a famous cartoon given to the world dur
ing the war. It represented a ‘Soldier with his helmet gone, his
garments torn by shells, himself wounded and his face haggard but
on his countenance an expression of unalterable determination as he
stood with fixed bayonet in the presence of the oncoming enemy.
Underneath the powerfully done picture were the words, “A good
soldier has no theories; he bars the way.”
We believe that that cartoon should be re-iseued, for these are
the days when iron is needed' in the human blood. When nothing less
than unyielding determination will see the present situation thro.’
Ballyhoo has failed. The singing of “The More We Got Together
the Happier We’ll Be” has not profited ms by one iota. The various
“inters” whether internationalism or intertrade or any other in
termesses have not proven sufficient to meet the grave matters that
have confronted us. Even the United States, after a series of co
lossal mass efforts for more than a year’s duration doubt whether
they have got out of all the brew and stew through which they have
passed 50-50 or 0-0. A big executive before a Canadian parliamen
tary committee showed lamentable knowledge of the business over
whichhe- allegedly presided. Sane men are .saying of many a huge
concern “The more there is in it of bigness, the more there is in it
of weakness.”
Let no one befool himself. We need self help. We need self
reliance. We need indivdual, dogged determination. Wo have far
too much individual ease. There has been far too much looking
with open mouth and extended palm and far too little fixing of our
Industrial bayonets and far too little of facing out* economic enemy.
There has been far too much of our making door mats of ourselves
in the presence of difficulties. Unless there is a speedy recovery
from this supiness on the part of Jack Smith and his wife and Bill
Brown and his family and Hank White and every one of his neigh
bors. Unless Universities and Collegiate Institutes recover from the.
appalling state of self-indulgence that now characterizes them the
present twilight of endeavour will deepen into a pitchy darkness
upon which no star will shine, Churches are required to get over
their present case in Zion and to call each man to duty. A certain
grimness in the presence of duty must characterize each man within
civilization’s bound’s! or the retrogression to savagery will be more
rapid than some of us ever dreamed poesiblo. He who blinks facts
is ho friend of the race.
