1 THURSDAY, JANUARY 24, „1946 C DISCOUR iEMENT By "PEG" Piave we ever felt discouraged, in other words has the thought at any, tin entered our.miild that the future looked very black ahead of tra? Per- haps we are tired of daily, routine, We . get up in .the morning when wakened• by a dear ,mother . -or an alarm clock and ha a thought "I just.. cannot get up to start the old grind again today." It may be there are ifone of us who have not gone through the experience. We can re- .call when as little children we woiil sometimes say, "Mother, li do:,.not want to go to school today." Upon enquuiryi as •to the reason we might have been heard to . say,. "We do not lean, anything, but the same stuff all the time: I ,ani tired going." It was well for us that we. had parents who explained, to us that we ware learning the three R's, yet we were advancing in them day after day. That sane idea of our .childhood has been our constant companion, day by day ever since we started to. school, and unless some miracle hap- pens to us, it will travel right along with, us until the end of our Earthly career.• • ' Very often indeed. we ,rake plans but`. for some reason, best for our- selves, God does not allow us to carry % them through. It may be it was our privilege to start them, but it is God's will .that some one else should finish them. It is a great satisfaction to us to know that al- though the world judges us by what we have accomplished yet God looks at our hearts and . He knows what we have tried to do. What a comfort this is to many of us who have failed to reach our ,objective, We could all mention some who have started out on a life work, then sor- row or trouble of some kind has conic into: their lives. Some have been able to rise above it but others have gone "down under their burden of discouragement. Many times we cannot blame them for likely if we were placed under the same circunn- cumstances we too would find it too much for us. There is, one thing certain we can never rise above the difficulties of life without the help of Him wbo has given us the promise, Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world." A striking and pathetic story is told along this line in connection with the ' writing of that beautiful and comforting hymn, "It is well with my soul," When the French steamer, Ville de Havre, went down on a trip from America to France a large number were drowned. Among those en board was Mrs. Spafford and her our children, The mother was able o get the children out of their berths •nd on deck. When told that the oat was sinking and there was no ope of rescue, Mrs. Spafford gath- red her family around her and pray - that they saved nd iif it that they ight be ready to meet their Saviour. e boat sank in half an hour and earlyall on board were lost. While owing over the spot, one'of the sail- rrs roscued.Mrs. Spafford. Ten days ater she was landed at Cardiff, ales, front where she cabled to 'saved usty sone," Mr Moody leftaiis neetingc in Edinburgh and went 'to verpool to try to comfort the *reeved parents • (The husband had rrived in Liverpool). The evangelist as :ble greatly say, `Itsed to is well; find they were of Tod be done." In 1876 Mr. Sankey vas entertained at the home of Mr. nd Mrs. Spafford fot a numberof weeks. During that time Mr. Spaf- 'ord wrote the hymn, "It lis Well ith My Soul" in commemoration of he death of hie children, who a short rime Twin to their sailing for Europe lad all been hrouvht to Christ at a "I would have gone, God bade ale stay, , T would have worked, God bade me rest; He broke my will from day ay ,to- day, He read my yearnings' unex- pressed And said t Way'!" 'i" hem, N At times friends will tell as to make the best of a bad job. Should we consider ,affliction or trouble or 'sorrow as a bad job? It may be we have been brought nearer to Christ by such; things than we would ever have been in any other way. From ,time to time discouragement may, be our lot but the method we use in dealing with everyday prob lents may mean success or failure, in our lies.. The way we receive God's dealings with us may be described by the following illustration. Two women in their later years were required to wear glasses,. One of them for the first time in many years saw more clearly the beauty iri her sur - rounclings and was constantly on the look out for them. She was search- ing for good and let the unpleasant things go by. The other woman used her extra sight to see faults in her children, her husband, her home. and even God's field of nature. She was looking for trouble and needless to say she did not have to. look far. The first one found happiness for herself and others, and the second made life 'unhappy for nearly every one with whom ,she came in Contact. If we are discouraged our life will certainly have a tendency to bring others down to our level, but if we through God's help are able to rise above the discouragements of life, others will see Christ in us and it may, be the means of their believing in our Saviour and accepting Him as the guide of their lives. Does our discouragement in Iife make no go around with 'a chip on our shoulder'? If it does we will certainly not go far until' we have it knocked off. Does it ever occur to us that if we are continually ]cav- ing trouble with those with whore we come in .contact that the fault must largely be with ourselves, and yet how prone we are always to blame some one else. Little do we realize that the people to whom we are telling how. we are having trouble with this one, that one and the next one are in all probability thinking 'could it be possible that all 'the fault cannot be with the others?' If we cannot get on with our friends and are continually having trouble .let us just look into our own Iives and see if we carnet find the fault right within ourselves. Thus if we find that we are jealous, unforgiving, selfish, and are letting our temper get the best of us let us take the matter to our Heavenly Father and ask Him to help us to overeome these faults and to give us the•desiee and ability to live happily with those who try to do so much for us. Another point of discouragement today is the unemployment question which is looming ups against our re- turned ,nen. Truly things do seem dui( for them and our sympathy roes out to them and their families. Although the will to work is there yet the way is not clear. There are many ,ren today who are working at utiler jobs when they feel they are qualified for something better.: A man who had held a good position in a railway office gave it up to serve his country in World War 1. When he ' returned, his position was not available for him so he drifted from ne thing to another. Finally, much iscour'aged he accepted a position s, a cleaner in an institution, and o dict his work just as faithfully sd thoroughly as if he had worked his higher office.. He did not let s discouragement roh him of the onesty which had made hint •a good orker wherever he was. When Daviel Livingstone decided give his life to Christ for mis• ovary work he chose China as his 0 d a 'mall meeting in North Chicago. Thus we see one example of where I hr ,eoole whom we would expect had I w ust reason for almost despondency ad been able with God's hell, to to hise above theiI' sorrow si Rli fewTELSPHONS SERVICE rural homes in nd Relatively Quebec are beyond Ontario reach eaC and telephone lines-- even expect the re farms , 5 t @Nell 150 fixed Qervice. ofhigh-strength A new kindway of extend - steel wire is teleervice • ing rural more ically.

"Mae proposes but God disposes" and on account of war in China the door of that vast country was closed to him. He learn- ed that "My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your • ways my ways, saith the Lord." Possibly, with some disappeintrent and discourage - anent this servant . of God who WAS to become one of the world's greatest missionaries went to Africa = the dark Continent. What he aceontp= lislied there will only be known when the books are opened in the Great Beyond. There are manly such instances in all walks of life, If we are discouraged we have. 'so to speak, to get behind ourselves and push, and at times it takes a great deal of hard pushing. Are we doing our very best in God's sight to rise above discourage- ment? All Earthly things will soon- er or later fade away; fit'om trey but that does not need to. cause us any worry if we have accepted Christ as our Saviour' If that is so,'the Star of Heaven will send its beams along the pathway from Eternity to us and Twill thus guide us to our Everlasting home where'we will spend Eternity with Him and with our loved ones, Butwe , must believe on Him before that will be' made possible for us, Though lowly here'our lot may .be,• High work have we do; In faith and trust we follow Him Whose lot'' was lowly too. To duty firm, to conscience true, However tried, and pressed, In God's clear sight high work we do, If we but. do Our. best. Thus may we make the lowliest lot With rays of glory bright; Thus may we turn a crown of thorns Into a crown of flight. "P190" GRADES OF SEED With the exception of field roots and: vegetables, which may or may not be graded, all kinds and classes. of seed sold in Canada must be sold on the graded' basis. Discriminating buyers ask for the top grades,` such as Registered Number One, Certified Number One, and Number One seed.. It pays to, buy seed by grade as it is graded for germination, freedom from weed seeds and freedom from seedsof other cultivated plants and inert matter.
