Golden Text Lord is the strength of my whom shall J be afraid?”— 27:1. a list of ten names, and it safe guess to say that you recognize a single one of Shammua, Sbaphat, Igal, Gaddia, “The life; of Psalms Here’s seems a will not the ten: Palti, Gaddiel, Gaddia, Ammiel, Sethur, Nah’bi and Geuel. How many of these ten do. you recognize? But here are two other names, and you will certainly recognize one of tfiem, perhaps both: Camb, Joshjua. • - Tne ten .pames that mean nothing •to us belong to ten men who went down into oblivion because they did not trust God. The two1 names that are immortal in Bible history belong to two meij who believed in God; they dared to take .Him at His word and] really. * take Him at His word and really are two of the most honored char­ acters in the Bible. It is always safer to trust God. It is never safe to distrust God. , The Lord lipd told Moses to send twelve men, one for each’ of the tribes of Israel, Up from the wild­ erness where the Israelites - were journeying since they had been brought out of their bondage ih Egypt and into the land of Canaan to spy out that land, its cities, P^/e and ’crops. • ■'n.’f’e twl6ve spies were appointed they started out on their, adventur­ ous journey into an unknown land,1 and they were • gone forty days. When they came back they brought back figs, pomegranates and grapes a branch. of one cluster of grapes was So large that it had to be car- • , ried by two men on a staff borne between them. The report of the, land was wholly favorable, a land flowing with milk and honey and producing wonderful crops. “Nevertheless,” said .the spies “the cities were walled and very great; and the people of the' land were very strong indeed. There were giants there, and we were in our own sigjht as grasshoppers, and so were we in their sight.” . So‘Israel Would never be able to said the .spies, “for they are strong­ er than we.” That , is, ten of the spies brought this gloomy and hopeless report. Two of the spies brought a minor­ ity report of a very different sort. Caleb said: “Let,us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it."” The host of Israel went into a panic. There were loud cries and’ weeping that night. . They turned bitterly against Moses* and Aaron, | even against God, “Would to God they cried out, “That we had died in the land of Egypt, or would to God we had died in the wildernessI” Why should God have brought them. (out into this land *to fall by the ■sword and to have,,their wives and J^lildren a prey to tli& enemy? It would be better to return to Egypt even now! ‘/It was a dangerous time ..Moses and Aaron -and Joshua Caleb. They tried to quiet people and reassure* them, ‘pleaded with Israel no(t to God heard and answered this won­ derful intercessory prayer of Moses. But He had to deal with , the sin of the people. Because they had now rebelled against Him and distrust? ed Him ten times since Hfe had' brought them out of Egypt, He said that none of the adult members, of the congregation should ever" enter the promised land, but only the chil­ dren and young people under twenty years of age, The little children,' which the Israelites said .would be a prey before the enemy, God would bring safely through the wilderness, and into the promised land; the old- er ones, who would not trust Him, should all die in the wilderness af­ ter wandering there for forty years, And the ten spies who betrayed God by their unfaithfulness to Him were stricken and “died by the plague before the Lord,” Joshua and Caleb were the Only two adults in all the congregation of Israel, who were brought through that forty years in life and safety and entered the promised land with the new generation of Israelites. Why was Israel so slow in learn­ ing to trust the Lord? Why are we so slow in learning to trust the Lord?" He is not’a disappointment.’ He always keeps His word,; Let us- trust Him fully and continuously in these dark days /of testing, and He Will lead us'always in triumph, MANNING—WOOD A pretty fall wedding yas solem­ nized at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Wood, Hullett, when their only daughter, Mary Louise, was united in marriage to William Ed­ mund Manning, younger son of Mrs. Margaret Manning also of Hullett.
