HOPE ..,,:.,.;..,acsai,,, - By "PEG" Just what do we mean by "Hope"? Have you ever come to the place where you felt there was no hope for you in the future? Many of those who are feeing the grave of a suicide had come to that state. Some people claim that when hope fails, to try something else. Thas is not true. Hope never fails. Hope is founded in Christ. There is a pretty little pin in the shape of a pilot's wheel. On it is engraved +'Jeaius,never, fails". When our hope isgrounded in Christ hope will not fail either. We can always find a way out of any trouble in which we find 'ourselves. The trouble with us largely is that we have not sufficient faith in our: Saviour. Eventually to some people there comes a time when apparently hope understand why God had allowed the sickness to overtake her yet she knewthat at the great day of the Resurrection all would baamade plain to her. Hope came hads into her life. The water for one of the great American cities comes from the Ashokan reservoir. The intake to this reservoir can be traced back to a stream and from their to a simple mountain spring. So it is in out lives, the salvation of the world is found on the middle cross of three, on. Mount Calvary, just outside of Jerusalem, There Christ died in order that you and I might :be saved. His grace is sufficient for us. That grace has come down through the. ages, almost two thousand years. `It• has been sufficient for each one who is at an end.. Friends •come to us with' has lived during that time or who their troubles" and we are glad they wiir be on the earth until Christ Veer they can come.` Oftimes this is an. innermost trial and we pray that comes again.

We words take this matter to •our would, instead say they •were foolish Saviour who smooths out. ail 'diffi- as the proof' was• there. It is just, culties and ask Him to direct our the same in regard • to, our belief course?" ' , In II Corinthians 12:9 Christ says to .Paul "My grace is. sufficient for thee;- for my strength is made per- fect in - weakness." In answer to the request of Paul that his.thorne in the flesh might be removed Christ,does not give him any'assurance that his troublemight lee removed, but He does say that about Christ. We can never receive His blessing until we are willing, to say that He' -died for us. It was not forany good that we' have done, but it was for our Salvation that He left His Heavenly Home and came down to earth. There is no joy in the world which can be compared to the; feeling wbieb comes over: use when. we rea- lize that we are co-partners with He will give him strength to endure Him, in trying to bring others to the it. How much :bitter that is! Is it not saving, knowledge of Jesus Christ, true that it is mush easier to endure Wordly pleasure can never bring a Iong illness with Christ' than to g enjoy fairly good health without TIis that joy; a.. knowledge of Him which gracious Presence guidance? we are ashamed to let the world know about can bring no such happi- We at times visit patients who nese into our lives. Try as we may to have been ill for a long time. It may find a substitdte for it we will L be we find them without much hope unsuccessful. ' As, 'a drowning man for the future, that is of being able will •try to save himself by grasping to be up and around again. We find even a show so when we go down two, kinds of such patients. There into the depths of despair we realize are those' who have taken their � that if we have not accepted Christ affliction in the way God intended we have no hope whatever for the they `:should take it, that is that Ile has laid them aside to learn that Lesson; then again there are those who are very rebellious over their .lot. One dare not speak to them about the higher things of life Without being told not to broach that Subject again. They feel that the Lord did not care for them or else ,Ile would not have so afflicted them. r • A missioner w3to oisited one of the large hospitals recently told of A circumstance similar to that. She told the patient she would not speak to her again on the subject of her Salvation and of .her hope for the future, but she would pray for her. After the .Missloner had spoken to her in passing several times, the patient called to her where she came in the deer one day, and said, "Oh, I do want you to talk to me about Jesus, Christ and of any future- hope" the Eternity • over which Christ That day the patient accepted reigns or that over which Hiss adver- Christ and, although she did not sary the devil mules. We ;can take future. It may .be sickness has come into our home, or even the angel of death has knocked. with no uncertain seund at our door .and has called a loved one, the dreaded telegram has, come with the words "missing" or "died of wounds" or some other announce- ment which -strikes terror, to our innermost , soul. At times we feel. that all hope must be abandoned and we might say that is so unless we have a hope in Jesus Christ, which is 'everlasting. It has been truly said that ',char-- acter grows from thoughts, and: hopes are shaped by character". We sometimes speak of the hope of a Christian. It is something to live .by, but it is also something to die by. It Wray be we have .stood; by the shed -side of ,someone who was passing from this world into, Eternity, either our choicebut it is one or the other and the 'choosing is left to us abso- lutely. Has the One in question gone eat happy in the thought -of a gfori ous hope .for, the future or has he oz she gone on and left in the minds of those watching by their bed sides the feeling that they are stepping out of this earth with no hope of entering a land where there is any joy. There is always something for 'us to do in the future which, lies ahead.. So often we say "I hope every thing will work out alright" We' have hopes; but do we ask Goa' to help as to so livethat these hopes` will become realties or do we go on in our strength. We will never suc- teed that way. We should make God. our Co-partner in everything we do. -We find our 'hope only in our Sav iour who died for us in order that - our hopes of .Everlasting life might be realized. At the present time ' we ,have hopes. We .believe with foundation that the war, in EuroPe at least will soon be, over and, that ourboysand girls will'return to us. May God grant that our hopes will be realized. How much more distressing would our days be if we had not that hope. Too many Mothers and Fathers, brothers and sisters, the hope that their dear ones will return has been abandoned, as they know that when the troops eome marching home their dear one will not be among them, but there is a comforting feeling in their hearts that their son or daugh- ter has laid dowel their lives in order that freedom instead of the Axis powers should rule our land. We have no realization of what would have been our lot if the brave of the Allies had not gone out to save us. We read about the terrible tortures which have been inflicted on inno- cent people in European countries, by the Axis and we must know that such would have been our lot had it' not been for our boys and girls. May God bless them every one. They will not all come home but we do pray daily that God will .be with them and that their hopes of a safe home- coming may be realized. Never give up hope, Hope will always stand by us but we must daily and hourly pray that God will give us the strength of character to go on hand in hand with ,hope, There are better things ahead of us. Things look dark at times. More and more in recent years as people "are travelling by airplane we are learn- ing that, every cloud has a silver lining. We • see the dark side but above is a shining cover which may be compared to hope. • Do not let discouragement rob us' of hope. Should we do that it will robe us of a great deal of joy ini life. Our object should be to keep on hoping not -only in the material side. of life, if there is any doubt whatever in our gninds as to our hope for the future let us right now, not a month, nota week, nor an hour from now, but now, take Jesus as our personal Saviour. One moment from now is not ours. In a flash of a sec- ond we may be in Eternity and what will our sentence be? How merciful God has been to us. He has warned u2 time and again through sorrow, accident and sickness, but the time is coming when the last warning will have passed. Our hope for the future is now. HOPE "What is this strange mysterious thing That creeps within the heart When all the world seems desolate And happy dreams depart When sorrow knocks upon the door Companioned by dread ,fears. And we are blinded by our doubts Our agonies and tears What is, this faint dim light that flashes In a darkened place. Can this be God? We know we cannot see Him face to face Yet as through lifes calamities With feeble hands we grope Some thing divine is breathed into our hearts And this is Hope." "PEG,,. V $wildinPlans for. oI.
