Moses took God at His Word; God kept His Word; and Moses became the great­ est human Emancipator and Law­ giver in the history or the world—- because he entrusted his life to God. * Stome seven centulries later the Lord lookd for a man to. be His spokesman to Israel, and revealed Hrnself in a vision to Isaiah. Was Isaiah proud and lifted up because of this? That is impossible for any man who has- a vison of God, Isaiah cried out: “Woe is me! done; because I am a clean lips, and I dwell of a people of unclean Then God could use him—not be­ cause of his sin, but because he knew that he was a sinner. His sin was cleansed away by fire from thje altar, and when he heard the Lord asking, “Whom shall I send, and who wll go fgr us?” Isaiah answer­ ed, “Here am I; send me.” We may be sure Isaiah said this, not in any self-confidence, but with a new con­ fidence in God. Another seven centuries passed; and the Lord Jesus Christ was look­ ing for men with whom to entrust the Gospel of salvation after He should have finished His work -oi paying the penalty of men’s sins by His death on the cross. (He saw two fishermen, Simon and Andrew, an<J He called them: “Come ye after Me and I will make you to become fish­ ers after men." Did they begin too ask Him ques­ tions, make terms with Him, or what unusual men they were? Here is the record: “And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed Him." There is the secret of success­ ful stewardship of life. All the dis-- ciples but one (Judas Iscar-iot, the son of perdition) did this when .the call came. iSaul of Tarsus was a proud Phari­ see, trying to fight Christianity to the death, and executing Christians. The risen Lord appeared to him and he felled to the ground, blind and helpless. Like Moses and Isa­ iah and the disciples, Saul was com­ missioned by the L-O’rd Himself to carry the good news of salvation to the Gentiles. The result? “I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision.” But Saul, whose name was changed to Paul, lost all confidence in himself as he lay on the ground in helplessness before the Lord. He became a successful -steward of life When he learned, “I can do all things through Christ which strengthened me.” . The Lord Jesus Himself showed ‘by His parables how men ought to live, especially by the parable- of the talents; and; His glory, to judge this world and its nations. The steward­ ship of life becomes a serious and eternal question when we face this fact. Paul declared that we should run the race of life as an athlete runs a race on the track. He has just one object in view, the winning of that race; he makes any sacrifices “to ob­ tain a corruptible crown; but we are incorruptible.” How can we be sure of winning the race and proving ourselves faith­ ful stewards? There is only one way, “They '. . . first their own selves to the Lord."

Here is a lesson giving us photographic pictures ot three of the greatest characters who ever lived, and showing how they got theii' start toward greatness; another picture of the start of a group of men who turned the world upside down; and two immortal pas­ sages of literature on the right use of life, one from tlfe lips of the Lord Jesus Himself, the other from the great apostle, Paul. Hudson Taylor, founder of the greatest missionary organzation of •this century or the last, was once asked if he did not think it would be well for young Christians, im­ mediately upon beginning the Chris­ tian life, to do something for the Lord. “No” replied Mr. Taylor. “I they ought to do everything for the Lord. The vividness of biography in this lesson show us men who, after they had once started serving the Lord, did, not something for Him, but everything for Him. That is, they considered their lives not belonging to themselves hut to God. They jverfe stewards of His property, which He had entrusted to them. This is the only safe way to look at our own lives if we would live them in a way that is really worth while, -Moses, Isaiah, the disciples, Paul these are the men we are studying and none of these probably began life in full allegiance to the Lord, They had to be brought to that vis­ ion, as most of us do. Moses fled for his life after murdering, an Egy­ ptian and spent forty years in the wlderness as a shepherd. Thon God appeared to him in a burning bush, Which was not consumed, a miracu­ lous manifestation of the presence of God. He commissioned Moses to defy the mightiest King living, Pharaoh of Egypt, and lead the chil­ dren of Israel out of their bondage, thoro. “Certainly I will be with thee,”
