The Goderich Signal-Star, 1970-05-07, Page 3w a., from the Minister's. study., BV' THE REV. G. I.. ROYAL, Knox Presbyterian Church In the hustle and bustle of toddy's world it is a good thing /to separate ourselves from the• concourse of mankind fora little time. This was the habit . of Christ, in His earthly Ministry. Frons , time to time He went aside and 'communed with His- • ve< a im� heavenly- -.Pather . fit- refreshment, .new strength and :reaffirmed. His `vocation to man. Even prior to,.., the horrors of Golgotha .He , went apart into Gethsemane to seek again the ministration of God. He was able to say, - "Not ° My will but Thine be done." This• is the kind of experience that can renew us, in life's pathway. We are confirmed' in our pilgrimage. Just a few days ago the writer was able topartake of this type of reinvigoration at Five Oaks at Paris. The motive for attending , was . extremely selfish.

Was • the vision dilutin''Were people really so -all -fired important? What was/is the state of one's'"• faith in this different age?. Was God calling us to one thing and Were we doing 'another? An answer had to be found and the Retreat seemed to present itself as a logical arena of discovery: One fear that' found itself in Retrcat the forefront was the tact : of when we realize, 1 am with you secondary things.

(St._John 14:6) So, from the Retreat came forth a renewed emphasis: above all else stands the heroic figure of Jesus Christ and the Message He • possesses for our world and our day. "For God so loved the world, that He. gage His only begotten Son, • that whosoever believeth in Himshould not perish, but have everlasting life." L(St John 3:16). 'Another fear that found fruition in. the Retreat was the:, hectic inattention of the world. to the Gospel. Are you listening? Can you hear me? Am I making ". clear sense?
