OUR FAITH•, 1N GOD By "PEG" There. is nothing .moreimportant in daughters that they would revevence our lives than our faith in God. A the Lord's Day and give Christ first little child can have a great deal of ' place in their lives, but those vows faith in mother and daddy, but thatweut with the shrieking of the sirens oharaeteristie is nothing in compare- and the ringing of the bells, and son to the faith we Lave in God. Our/ many have never entered God's House parentis, may, at times, fail us, but from that day to tkie. We reason that some time we will accept• Christ but in the meantime we will' just put off the day of decision. Do wo realize that that time may never be ours. Recently in, three days word came to us that three friends of long years' standing had slipped away with no warning and had they not been followers of Christ there would have been no possible chance for them to decide that Un- important question, "What What then shall I do with Jesus which is called Christ'" God oyer will. When God does not answer our prayers as wo would like Him to, we feel that our faith wavers,. but as time goes on we realize that God knew best and that if Ho had answered our petition as we requested Him to, things might have been very bad for us. Throughout World War II there were many who inspite of very dark days knew that God would work things oiet in a way which was best for the world, and they still think so, in spite of the fact that the world is still in. ae very unsettled state. Just how world affairs will shape themselves no one knows but the Christian people of the world know for a surety that what- ever happen it will be' for the best. What are some of the characteristics of faith' Fearlessness pays a large part in it• If wo have a definite faith and trust in our Saviour we have no need to fear anything, for the Christ Who did so much/ for us will see us safely through this life. We at times wonder that God lute any patience with no, How we, must try Him! Prior to tlto Great War of 1914, God ]:new that we were drifting Tar from. Him. During that terrific struggle many resolved that they would re -consecrate their lives to Him, but that resolution did not last.

Our instructions are to be ready for we know not the day nor the hour when the Son of Man cometh. It may be our individual call or it may be the seeorid coming of the Lord, but whenever it is, we should be ready to meet Him without a sec- ond's warning. It is our own responei- bility if we are not, for we have been plainly warned. At the present time many of our missionaries are being flown out of their stations in China, in India and Teem other parts of the world. The )Iva/ conditions in these places are becoming very serious, So-called Chris- tian countries are finding it necessary to raise funds up into the millions to prepare for war in case there should be one. How mucic better it would have been for us if that money had been spent in trying to bring Chrieti- anity to those countries when the doors were open for missionaries to enter with God's Word.

The late Gypsy Rodney Smith con sidered to ,be the world's greetes Evangelist Speaking in Massey Hall Toronto sometime ago asked the quest ion "Aro we following Jesus" Om hearts filled with shame as we though of the careless way iti which we were treading in1Iis footsteps. The gypsy pointed out that wo labeled ourselves Ouch members and even officials of the House of the Lord and yet we were walking in a way that we would not want anyone to follow us. There were "rousts" in the life of Christ so it is necessary that there should be "'musts" in our lives. One of these is that we "must" leave the life of the world and join the Christian forces then what ever comes we will have nothing to fear. The struggle ahead of us may bo hard but with Christ at our side the world can have no hold over Ars. What we need is faith in that Christ who will support and strength- en us from day to day. As we look about ns we ask the question "Why do people go on living the way they do' Why have they no regard for God or for His day' Dur- ing the war there were special Sundays sot aside as days of prayer. We attends ed •these services and marvelled at the miraculous answers to prayer. Per baps before the week was out we prayed for somo trivial thing and be- cause God did not answer just accord- ing to our wishes we questioned "Where is Godo" Is that fair to the ;One who has never failed to keep a promise to us. How meagre and how short lived our faith is! Would that we would get back to Christ and to the faith of our fathers. In one of his broadcasts during the war years our beloved King George VI toll us to Keep our confidence brightly shining. We can only do that by rofleeting the love of God which should be in the heart of each olio of use In the world wars through which many of us have .passed God las an- swered our prayers. Ile has allowed the enemy to go so far and no further. He has answered our prayers and yet how little faith we have in Him. There are very few, no matter how disabled they are but who not only have faith themselves, but who through their trust in God feel they must help others to have that same faith in. their Heavenly Father. Let us make Him part of our lives and then go out to help others make their lives happier by doing the same thing.
