Clinton News-Record, 1946-03-28, Page 3THURSDAY, MARCIH28, 1946 CLINTON' NEWS -RECORD, 1 PAGE' THREE The Backward, Forward and Upward Looks By "PEG" Do we ever think when we waken in the morning to face a new day that it rests largely with ourselves what the coming hours are going t mean to our future? So many of us just look upon it as another day, and manystart out with no prayer to our Heavenly Father to give us oppor- tunities to make it a good time not only for ourselves, but also for those h wcome with hem we in contact. doWe not knowh what the dayholds for us, but if we ask God to help us to be His servants throughout the day, to help us in every way to show to .the world that we are a chili( of His, it is marvellous how our prayer will be answered,. It may be that the day will bring sorrow to us, we ourselves may happen with an accident or some one near and dear' to us may be called to leave us for a Home which is much happier than this (although this is a beautiful world yet, man through sin has made it at times a hard universe in which to live). In a second of time the plan of our whole life may be changed, but if we have asked God to lead us according to His willwe can have the assurance that "Nothing happens by chance", and if God sends sorrow and trial to us He wiil also send the strength to bear the burden. Deuteronomy 33:27 tells ns. "711.3 Eternal God is thy refuge, and under- neath are the ,everlasting arms." So often as we look back over a day we feel that God has not dealt justly with us, but if we a,ic Him to He will give us only what is best. Does it ever occur to us that we forget to thank God for the joys He has brought into our lives. God sends joy as well as sot•o•w, hut we are so apt to forget the pleasures of life. At times, if we wish to. 'as ive look over the past we can spend hours recalling great moments and hors of happiness. Very often these h-ve been given to us by friends who very frequently, through sacrifice, have helped us. Yesterday has passed into history, :we cannot recall it, but we are so thankful that God has made it possible to us to have the assurance that if we have given our hearts to Him, and are truly trying to follow Hain that at our request q He has put our sins behind Him and that we can faee the new day with a clean sheet. We have the happy thought that we do 'not have to wal]t alone. He has prom- ised P use d to be with use very stepof the way: We need have no fear. "One day at a time And the day is His day. He h'th numbered its hours Though they haste or delay. His grace is sufficient, We walk not alone— As the day, so the strength That He giveth His own." We may look back with regret. God knows that we have fallen from the standard which we set up for ourselves. He alone knows how hard we have tried. If we have halm to any one, we must matte restitution as far as it is possible to those whom we have injured, further than that, there is nothing' we can do about iL. God is not like us, -we forgive bu many times do not forget, but God always forgets as well as forgives If we are determined to look back and continually keep our sins befora us then we may be positive that w will be fearful the most of the time, Not only will we have fear in our hearts but we will be very often de• footed in our future pians. There is nothing which undermines courage like fear. Now let us look into the future. There are some people who spend good time and money going to se those who profess to be able to tell us what is going to happen to es in the future. Does any rte know th a future? Yes, God does but no cm I else. At the present time many era anxious about the coming days. Hae p God given us any definite plan th future e me of he 1 t world? , Yes xi wore ell 1 tells exactly what will hap pen. There are deep students of the Bible who claim to know all these things, but no matter how much we read there a e a ways many m:in, events of which we know little. One thing we do know, that is that Christ will come again but we are told to God's word that we know not the day nor the hour when that great event will take place. We should, in all sincerity realize that we have two choices, one is to accept Christ and the other is to reject Him, the former leads to life everlastinm with ITim and the latter to eternal separation from Him. Times have changed in all walks of life, A minister m u t..t e s alto recent' v p lit g said that the tin ie of the chinch wa' coming to an end, Have we done the best we could with our churches? Has Christ been preached the way Hu should have been taught. A worker speaking of a banquet which had been held in a church remarked that the minister said there was to be no smoking. That led to a talc on churell amusement. He asked the question, "Are -we going to lose our youne• men and women because we will not allow dancing and smoking and card playing in our churches?" Those who attended the serv'ces in God's House before World War 1, know that at that time there was a great deal of pleasure in God's House in simply co-operating with T -Tim t His work. We have ]et down the bars, We have a1lowet1 the w-'dge c]' evil to come into our church buildings. Some of the young men aed w •rn' r who are to be the future leaders of our country (ie there is One by that time) are growing un with no ,•caned for God's House and many of therm have no regard for ITis d y Whoa fault is it? We must put the 1.1 m on parents and church of''iciele Who have little be little a1'mved things to creep in. A meeting of some of the men's ore•anizatiens w's b incl held in a certain chu••eh. It y, ^ ere a gathering of session mewhe^s e'n- Things were hecon'no' rather t;• ino and the minister took out 1 -ie ni n nd beo'an to sriv k^ savinn• "T ru se had better net let in., seeeine eee this " Before lone he . • ' t'actically every man in the m"etiee. of People say smoking , stead.es tit nerves. es. Let is consider just one lie point "How much good' could be 'done by the money that is put in smokes"? If a boy or girl, man or, woman did not get into the habit of drinking an y smoking it would never be needed to steady the naves. We give all hone and respect to the boys and girls who have done so much for us over- seas, and we appreciate their gallant efforts for freedom. There are many of them who have come back just as clean and pure as they went awry, but if any have fallen into habits which are ,no cer'dit to them then theyhave assurance the ass c e that God can and will take the inclination for those bad habits away from them. Peavey and effort is all that is needed. Letus join the ranks o s i those ere h W o are determined that our Dominion mon w)}' be the best country on earth. We can- not use the money winch God lin given us for p.n•poses which nye no according to His plan and expect 1 establish good homes. Let us take a pencil and paper' and count up just how'far the money spent on luxuries will go towards purchasing a home for ourselves, We do not know the future but - it is etre business to prepare fir the best yedrs which we can have. The road ahead rmty be short or long but God knows all the way that is ahead of us and He will w,P' he 0 !i'1 and will with us face every steel and every burden w' ick will conf,v» t ue Looking' into the future will only dismay us, Sisace do''s nn+ ps,•mi� ❑" ;n h; article to go into detail about th' inward look which would distress u! and make us feel eltogeth-i' w -etch d.

It has indeed been a very anxious trial for them.' At tint's tragedy has fere entered d inand u a "to let" sign n ha, been put on the home God ha= promised us a home in Iieaven and Jesus Christ came to this Earth and died for use that we might have a clear title to that home. In that realm there are no fears. We know that there is nothing but happiness, there is a peace which passes all under- standing and yet how loathe we are to accept salvation. We cannot too often quote the only terms which are applicable to that salvation, Some of ou'' learned men feel at liberty to disbelieve cer- tain portions of God's word, but we believe that there is nothing contain- ed in the Bible which God, could not nuke possible. In John 3:16 we have the fact of salvaticin. Let us ask God to guide us in the reading of this marvellous vevse and rend it through fully and prayerfully as it is, ,then ponder it and instead of using the word "whosoever" insert our own Same. When God inrnh•ed His belov- ed disciple John to write this book He meant that that ve'•ia should apply to each one of us indiv'duaily. Will we not accent it as en"h and take from God His free gift of salvation. This is our duty and privilege for the Present. Let us not delay this all- important deci'ioe any longer. We know not what the ,,ext moment will brine• for us. Let us grasp this op- po•tunity while it is ours.
