The Goderich Signal-Star, 1970-07-23, Page 61 i101.1. S1ONAL-STAR,"THURSDAY1 JULY 23•,19! 10 • -,p From the Mlhistei's study BY PASTOR ALFRED FRY Auburn 4 Donnybrook, United Churches. One da�t a.time' As.. _ thy , days, sa.. _.shall thy' • strength be. Deuteronomy 23-25. • "One day at a time" In this busy world in which we live, so many people are always planning for the days ahead. This may have it's merits, btit the thought uppermost in my • •mind as • I prepare this message is " Are we sure that we will live to see these days". It is not .,o paint a 'gloomy 4i rt rather that we should take time to ponder these things and do some soul searching. Life is so uncertain, one has only to listen to the news media, or scan the newspaper to learn of sudden death on land, sea, or air. We arenow in the holiday season. People are on the move; if any of us know a word of hope or has picked up a message - of comfort, it is, our duty to share it. - Our text is a splendid one for all _ of - us._ What.a great and oriouspiomise.d s .days;`so• th —x1aengtfune,.hot ,asAthe::;: years or months but as thy days. God has 'promised to give us strength one day at a time, and • to tomorrow with Him until it .comes, and for the duties and trials 'of tomorrow, however .hard and heavy, believe that strength for that day also' will be given you when it comes. ' Jesus was always trying to get men - and women to, trust the coming days to God and to live nobly and worthily today. He was against the, practice of adding the burdens of today, fears and ' forebodings ' for 'tomorrow. It is in love to us, in His desire to save us unnecessary pain, .that . He reminds us that "Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof". Is it not very plain that the men and women who are living thea .bravest; and. most successful lives around us and are proving towers of strength to otheit, are • those who have learned the secret of lilting just one day at a time and of depending upon God for that strength' for this day in the most simple and ` trustful fashion? - • If God The Father had meant us to carry on our backs the fears. and anxieties of tomorrow, - He would surely have told us more about them. If we were ,meant to hear today what next week holds, surely we should have been permitted to see into next week. • ° The word of God is very clear when it says, "Take no thought p. for tomorrow, sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof", We shouldask ourselves the age okt .question, "Where do we go from here?" Paul says, "If in this life only, we have hope .in God, we are of all ' men most miserable, there is a life beyond .. this which is Eternal, Jesus said it and I know it's, true. (Read John 14) . It is alright to feel brave and deny the -precious truth when one is in good health, but what about the time when you will be called upon to face Eternity? - Some people say "I "knovii' that.I should get right with God; but there is plenty of time `I want to have my fling, and when I have had it, I will consider joining the church". Think of the parable of the rich farmer, who planned to build larger barns. "Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be 4 required of _ thee". - I . write as a dying man to dying, men. Have you accepted Christ as your Lord and: Saviour? God loves, you, Christ died. for you. (John 3-16) Behold now is the aceepted • time, now is the day of Salvation. Tomorrow could be too late. Believe on The Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved. n• N Lord, for tomorrow and it's needs.. I do not pray; Keep me, my God, from stain of sin, Just for today. • Let me both diligently work' And duly pray; Let me be kind in word and deed, Just for today. • e • Obittia ries MRS.

CHICAGO, ILLINOIS opoas GOD HAM SPOKEN In his farewell address to the natien `Is;rael Moses; "Ask now of the days that are past •.. since the 'day that God created man upon -the earth, and ask from one side of heaven to the other, whether there hath been anysuch thing as this great thing is, or hath beerr heard like, it? Did ever people hear the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire as thou hast heard ...?" Moses referred, of •,course," to the givings of the law, when God spdke to Israel by word of mouth, amid the lightnings and thunders -of, 5irrai: In•-lsrael's-case aion e !.God y spake all these words" audibly, Never before had He un• dertaken to address •a nation per- sonally. This was'indeed a great honor for Israel, but God has sinte spoken to all mankind in an even more striking manner, for in Heb. 1:1,2 we read: "God . . , hath •in these last days spoken unto 'ids by His Son who . . . when He had, by_. Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty. gn high." , • At Sinai G.&1 'spoke the words of t_he_law: but _nQw ii Christ -He speaks of mercy and grace. There He spoke of the righteousness which He ,demands; but here He tells of : the righteousness which He provides in Christ. Some suppot'k that the absence of miraculous' demonstrations, the want of divine intervention in the affairs of men, etc., indicate indifference on God's part, but -actually this 'apparent indifference speaks to us of His Ipve and grace. • Remember, the Psalms and all prophecy had predicted God's judgment upon men for their re- jection of -Christ,. yet. today the Son. still voluntarily remains a royal Exile from the world, while neither He nor the Father do any- thing to avenge His ,cruel cruci- fixion. Meanwhile, still lingering in mercy, He sendsHis 5mbassa- dors to offer reconciliation to His enemies by grace through faith. Thus His silence actually -cries: "The door of grace is still open. Be reconciled while you may. Be- lieve on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved." tu,„. 47, • irDE on MEMORIALS -- MARKERS & CEMETERY LETTERING CLINTON - EXETER — SEAFORTH 'Goderich District Representative ' FRANK McILWAIN 524-7861 'or,200 Gibbons=St. -- 524-9495 ' R'EG.
