Confidence in God
•+'i+w+rwv+.w►wNrM.w+i«voa. By
This beautiful passage carries its
own message "I am safe in. God's
keeping. I can find no ether real
safety, but this is surely mine. God
has not promised to keep me from
disaster, but He has promised that
if disaster come, in whatever form,
I shall not be overwhelmed. He has
told me that no foe can touch the
innermost life of my soul. I am not
to be afraid even of them that kill
the body. My seal life they cannot
destroy. There is an inner fortress
whose gates they cannot pass." •
That is what confidence in God
means to us. It will carry us through
anything which can or will come into
••our lives.
As we look at the lives of others
when do we first notice confidence.
We find it in the life of a baby, and
a very young one at that. We hear a
little child cry and we go with the
Mother to look at it as it lies in its
cradle. The little one will look at
you with no sign of `recognition. Then
she will look at her mother and her
little arms will be raised and int

There are some Mothers. to -day
who spend their tinie playing cards

home hardly realize that they have a
Mother. What a- joy it is to us to
look ,back over our young days and
think of the happy evenings we had:
when our- dear Mother would gather
us around her and teach us to have
confidence in Jesus Christ, whose
life story she would tell us about.
That was in our very young days
and the confidence we then had has
remained with us and has grown.
