God Balled unto ham out of the midst of the bush and said, Moses; Moses, And he said, Here:am T." The speaker said 'that trioses was born in bondage,fand reared in luxury. He was 40 years old before he came to himself. Forty years of his valuable life had 'been spent before the 'voice of reason `had entered the palatal. and touched his own soul. Going ottt oue morning he saw an Egyptian and. a Hebrew fighting and stretchiag out his farm the slew the Egyptian •on the shot. Moses thought he understood God's 'way. He thought it was right to do wrong that good might conte of ita Moses finds himself charged with murder, and he flees ta.the land of lelidian. We find him seated by the well when the daughters of the priests of Midian Game to water their flock For befriending the daughters of. the Priest doses was invited to his home where he afterwards married one of the Priests daughters and for 40 years he dwelt in that quiet coun- try.- . You may seareh the pages of this old book and you .can't' find the history of those 40 years. 'Were it not for two words we would know little of the' life of.Moses foo 40 years and those two words are the names of the two '.baby boys that came to his home. Moses said I will call the one Gershom,for I have been stran- ger in a strange land. It expressed' the pathetic sob of a homesick man. Were you ever homesick, asked the speaker. Did you ever rest beneath a foreign flag and long for home. Did. you ever long for a vanished' hand or for a voice that was stilled? Did you mothers ever long to embrace in your arms that babe that is in, glory. If so you are et stranger in a strange land. He'aven is your home. 'We are fellow pilgrims in ta. strange land 9nd far away from home.. The second child Moses called. Elie- zar because. he said, God is 'my .help- er. Moses had lived 'down the pas- sional elements of youth 'and he now sees God even in the birth of that little child. Unless we see the hand of God in the everyday 'affairs of life we are not where' God. would have us, 'We should be . able to see the hand of God in our national life. The success in the present war will not be determined by the number or sire of the cannon but it ;will be on the side that recognizes the sovereign will of God. 'While Moses was passing the moun- tain side he saw a bush burning end not being consumed. Perplexed he stood before God to investigate. Oat of the bush 'came the message of. God to the mightiest leader the .world has ever seen, and he says 'Here 'itm I.".. Let us stand by the bush just long enough to gain a few lessons said " • the speaker, The firslisthe person- al every individual. al relation of God to ve y in Moses was the na.nio he had heard from the lips of Egyptian .princes but for 40 years be heel never heard it, To be called by this name brought back the memories of youth.
