E PAST AND THE FUTURE
By "PEG"
Again we have come to therim
of year when we look back and
then we try to visualize what will be
our lot in the future. The first of
these we can do quite readily, but
the second is just a dense fog in
front of us through which it im-
possible for our vision to penetrate.
The past is gone forever, we can-
not recall, one second of it. We, at
times, think it is useless for us to
leek over the past year and yet is it?
If we ask God to help us there are
many lessons which we may leary.
which will be helpful to us in the
future. We have almost reached
the last milestone. What are some
of these prominent markers which
we have . passed. We might say that
as the year 1947 passes into history
there are present three mourners:
1, Memories of '47
2. Discouragments of '47
3. Achievements of '47
There are also present two child..
ren:
1. Anticipation of '48
2. Hopes of '48
What are some of the ,memories
of 1947 which we will carry with us, 1
some with regret into 1948..
There were times when we be-
came angry before we 'counted the
o proverbial 10 or we should say ere
we prayed to God to help us keep
our temper. Many of us would give
a great deal to recall 'those momenta
At times we have allowed jeal-
ousy to, creep into our lives and
;what havoc it can make. Without
any just cause it has come between
the best of friends or even into
homes. Jealousy is such an insidious
thing that it can have a firm grip
of us before werealize it is part of
our being at all. Only the grace of
God can uproot it from our lives.
Then perhaps we have had an in-
ward hatred towards some one over
a trivial thing which could very
easily be straightened out if we
would just go to the person and talk
it over.
Could it be possible that we have
Ihad some crooked dealings in busi-
ness? If .so it is not too late to
straighten it out even though we
may have started on the New Year.
Have 'weacted in, such a way
that we would be disgraced if our
mother knew about it? We array rest
assured that God knows all about
it, No matter how we try to cover
these things up God will not accept
them as proper things for .a Christ-
ian to do. If we• are -riot Christian

then the death of Christ on the c
will not cover them. We may 0
waidly profess to be Christians
God looks °right into our hearts
He kpowe;.whether we are merel
pretense as far as our Christian
is cohcerned.
There are many ether ways
which we may, have wasted the;
year but we ria have brought
pleasure to others: Per mri
we -h
given' a' word of encouragement
those who' were downcast or
pressed; a note 'of sympathy to the
who were mourning the loss of
loved one; brightened some hail
for those who were laid acid
agreed to help in the L`ord's work
when perhaps we felt we were
qualified to do so; been a helper
some aged person who was findi
the way of life hard.
In other'words have we been the
cause of many heart woundings or
have we left a trail of happiness be-
hind us. The old year hes gone with
all we have said and done, it is with
God. If we are followers of Christ
we can start the New Year with a
clean sheet, if not, then we must
face the coming year and possibly
eternity with unforgiven sins.
We wonder sometimes what the.
New Year has in store for us. We
may be certain •of some things.
haveWweth willoaanxietvsass
far as the
future of the world is concerned;
doubtless we will each one have
trials in onnection with our own
personal affairs; needless to aa:
we will have some financial worries
sickness may be our lot; and perhap
God will see well to send His ange
of death to take one whom we dee,
ly love to answer His call to the et-
ernal ages. Many homes during the
past year have been so visited and
our sympathy goes out to one and
all who have been lonely this season.ve
Many of us haread and re-
read that beautiful story of the
Birth of our Saviour as found in the
second chapter of Luke. If we have
not, let us take time to read it now.

can answer that and we alone will
have to answer for our decision.
The past year is eurs'no longer
it has passed into Eternity but the
corning days are ours. We all have.
failed in many ways but if we wish
to take God as our companion and
guide although trials may come . to
us yet He will share our joys and our
sorrows and life for us will be much
brighter if we accept the 'opportuni-
ty which he has given us to make a
fresh start.
The following verses. by Miss
Mary Forman carry with theni a
wonderful New Year message.
We have no':, passed this way before

We stand before the open door
And face another year.
