MY SON, GIVE ME THINE HEART Prov. 23:26 What is meant by the heart? Human knowledge precedes science. Many of the facts o electricity were known, befor electricity was discovered. The head was known as the eat and source of life; before the ciruclation of the blood was thought of. In the earliest books dwells in, us is the same as saying that Christ dwells in us. It is the sense of the presence of Christ as our Redeemer, who loved us and gave Himself for us, who is near us. • He dwells in our heart, that is, the soul; not in the body as a temple, although .that is true; of Scripture the word is used as not merely in the understanding; freely for the inward life as it is although that is true also; but in at present. As the bodily organ ' the whole soul, and especially ?n receives and sends forth the the heart as considered the seat blood to every part, bearing - of the affections and of the life. heat, life, activity through the He dwells in us BY FAITH whole body; so the power which drives the current of 'thoughts, feelings, affections, desires and `volition, all that constitutes the inward life, is called the heart. The Scriptures speak of thoughts and purposes of the heart as well as its desires. The word includes the whole inward life. The heart is therefore the man's interior and real self, and the. demand,.. give me they heart, is -a demand of the .whole soul. • What is it to give the heart to are the fruits and manifestations His Word." od? It is to make God the end our lives. The object 'for which we live should not be self, the world, the creature in any forth, but the Glery of God, that is, that God_ should be known, worshipped, loved and obeyed.. It is to make His will the rule of our lives. Not our own desires, vices,. nor reason, nor .conscience; but His revealed will. It is to. make God the delight of our life. That is, that we should not seek our .happiness in the creature, but in God. This is what God demands of us. Another wonderful truth, in this connection is the New Testament verse "That Christ may dwell in your hearts :by faith" — Ephesians 3:17.

That tete state of mind expressed by faith is the essential condition of this indwelling of Christ. We must (a) Believe. the record which God has given of His Son, both as to His person and His work. (b) We ust appropriate, or receive Him as our Saviour and. Redeemer. - (c) We must constantly exercise towards Him the love, reverence, confidence and devotion which "THE BIBLE TODAY". Gyana Deep means "Light of Knowledge" but the name was a mockery to the aged In- dian widow who bore it; she was poor and illiterate. • But she worked in a women's hos- tel where she saw other wom- en and girls reading. She be-, worn- ,en to dream of _the day when she herself could d�o, the same, She dared no telVany of" her m superiors, but she confided in another servant woman — "More than anything else I - want to learn to read." Her friend told her that there were people connected with the hos- tel who taught people to re,a,d. Gyana was•so excited that she took hold of her friend and lit- erally ran with her 'to -.the house where the teachers lived:- Serious illness struck her down but she recovered re- markably, and was able to join a literacy workshop being or- ganized at Kotagiri. She work- ed hard and long at the task_ doggedly attacking letters, syl- lables and words until she had mustered them. Why was she so persistent? While she had been critically ill in hospital she had had a dream in which an angel had come to her, carrying a Bible and saying, "You will get bet- ter, and you will have your heart's desire. It is God's will that you should learn to read rbf faith. It is to faith as to the eye of the soul, that He reveals Himself; and it is through faith that Heexerts that constant influence over us, wpiich is intended and empressed by His dwelling in us. What say you'? Do you love the Lord Jesus Christ? Does He dwell in your heart by faith'.' On this question hinges the soul's destiny — heaven or hell. On this question depends eternity. Nursing school receives aid depends upon the context and "analogy of Scripture: In the above verse then what is meant by Christ"`' is not His humai4ity, not His official designation, not his duo -nature but the. Spirit of the Son and to say that the Spirit of Christ On -the last night of the liter - acv workship the new literates stood un to read. to demon strate their skill. Gyana went forward and stood on the plat- form and read with a tri- umnhant voice, "The Lord is my T.,iaht and my Salvation, whom shall I fear?" From now on, she could-- draw her strength from the Word of • God. Munro. The contribution from the Fund will assist the construction of the school. It will provide educational and residence facilities for the training of registered nurses. Accommodation will be available for 180 students. . Change name of March- of Dimes Inflation and changing medical- needs are reflected in the decision of the March of Dimes in Ontario to change its name. Geoffrey P. Dewar, president of the Rehabilitation Foundation - for , the. Disable.& announced that the_,name of the organization's campaign, has been changed from March of Dimes to "The Ability Fund." "There are several reasons for doing so," Mr. Dewar explained. "One of them is the fact that a dime is worth a lot less than it was when the name was invented during the Hungry Thirties. Another is _the fact that the public still associates the March of Dimes with polio, in spite of the fact that the' fight against paralytic polio was largely won with the Salk vaccine in 1955. "The Rehabilitation Foundation for some years now has been concerned with physically disabled adults, no matter what kind of accident or disease has been the cause of their --disability " " . The president explained that The _Ability Fund d also suggests the function of the foundation, which is to take advantage of the abilities a disabled person lias left by helping him to find suitable work. Mr. Dewar said that the new name would be used in conjunction with a new symbol adopted last year -- an evergreen tree- with one branch missing -= which replaced the maple leaf which had served as the organization's symbol, surmounted by the words March of Dimes. "This completes the transition to our new 'Took;" he said. The, March of Dimes, he said, would not be dropped, but phased out over a period of time so that the public would learn to identify one with the other. Mr. Dewar .pointed out that the new symbol, after being adopted by the Ontario organization, was- offered to and accepted by the Canadian Rehabilitation Council as a national symbol of help for disabled adults. The Rehabilitation Foundation is a member of the Council, as are similar organizations for rehabilitation of adults and children in all provinces. l• J.DenommeIFLOWER' SHOP»1 1 ` o Phos.

FILM DEVELOPING-- , A campaign of Scripture dis- tribution in Latin America, organized by the Seventh Day Adventist Church " under the title "The Bible Speaks' has grovyn to . such . propdttions that a special Secretary has had to be appointed to super - Vise the, program. The campaign aims not only at extensive .distribution of the whole Bible, but also at the encouragement of the good use of the Bible. Each member of the Church is asked to cir culate at least five Bibles among people who do not read it, and to give with every Bible a questionnaire. The Christian donor tells the 'recipient that the Bible is lent to him and invites him to attend a group which meets weekly to discuss one of the subjects on the questionnaire. T h e groups study in this way for seven weeks, after which the new Bible reader is told that the Bible is his to _keep. Exper- ience has shown that the new reader has become so inter- ested that he w -ants to' pay not only for his own Bible but also for another which he can give to a friend. In Mexico 19,000 Bibles have been distributed in . this way' by the Seventh Day Adventist Church. The . Church further promised the Bible Society of Mexico that it would try to double the previous year's contribution' to Bible Suniety work, The aim was achieved and a total of ' 67,000 pesos ( 6.(In0.00) was donated at a special service in Bible House.
