Clinton News-Record, 1946-10-10, Page 3THURSDAY, GOT013E1 10, 1946 ..—••=kmisolieraseimal• ecurrrox NEWS -RECORD PAGE THRE1E "Some Day We'll Understand" sy Ohe night a use stood by the bedside a a patient who fearing a long illness was somewhat depressed. As team came into her eyes, the nurse enquired the reason. The pa- tient answered, "If one could only forsee how long this is going to last, but I am anxious to abide by God's will." The nurse took the hand of the patient in her and in a soft sweet soprano voice sang a verse of that beautiful selection eSome day we'll understand." To that patient it was a message which will never be for- gotten. That truth should be a lesson to each one of us. Take for example any who are ly- ing in beds of sicknees and pain. It may! be a condition which had been coming on for years, or it might be that we left home to go to visit a friend, a Car swerved and struck us and we were carried home or to a hospital, there to lie for months. It may be friends have come in, and eympathized with us and yet we have felt mbellioue about it all. We nen- not see into the future. God to the best of our interest has hung a cur- tain in front of us. We feel that if we anti knew the reason we would feel much better. God does not m. veal that to US, but yet it is a great comfort to any thus afflicted to real- ize that "some clay we'll understand." A mother, father and a daughter have lived together happily for many years. The father is taken and the • ON" 410Alz.

The daughter takes sick, becomes seriously ill, is rushed to the hospital. The mother is told she cannot get better, and finally the daughter real- izes it. They two pray that God if it be His will will epare the life. Gradually the dear one slips away and the mother is left. There is a deep agony in that poor heart as she questions, "Why?" As time passes, she is able to say "Some dey we'll understand." A mother and father have one son, a child of nine or ten years of age. They go to a •summer resort for the holiday season. One day the little lad playing in the water near the shore steps into a hole. Someone dives for him and brings him out but in :spite of all that can be done, life is ex- tinct. The mother and father stand there helpless,. No one knows how helpless they are but those who have gone through it. They take their child home, friends come and endeavor to console them, but they cannot see a reason for it. Why should God take their boy without any warning or why should they be left alone at all? They cannot understand it nor can anyone else. It may be that God has taken that child or any other little one to save the parents from deep agony in later years. Agony of seeing that boy imprisoned or in some way come under the law, or a daughter bring some fern of dis- grace on them, bat at the time of° the afflietion there is no answer in their hearts as to why it should hap- pen to their dear one. The answer is the same, "Some day we'll under- stand." Then we could speak of Adversity. It may be some have made plans for their life work. Probably the mission field has been their objective. All went well until they came to the final medical examination when their application was rejected, Hoping it was some temporary condition which a few months would clear up-, they tremblingly and hesitatingly asked if they might return for a further ex- amination and if so, when. What a disappointment was theirs when the verdict was given that there was no use, as the physical condition was such that they could never be accept- ed by the mission board. What a disappointment for a young man or woman who since very tender years has had a longing to preach Christ on the foreign field! A. Christian of that type although feeling it keenly at the time would know that Jesus Christ whom he `was willing to serve in any capacity had a reason for it and that "some day we'll understand" was a true saying and he was willing to wait until that time-cam.d. There are many elderly people to- day who are lonelert The one who was their life partner has been taken from them, their children have homes of their own and are careless about looking after their mother or father. Perhaps poor eyesight has overtaken them, they are not able to read or work as they were once accustomed to do. It may be they are living in one room in some one else's home and the friends with whom they used to pass the hones have moved away or, are to frail to visit. Is it any wonder they often -pray that if it is God's will that He will take them Home. They cannot see why they are left, ueeless as they consider themselves. If they could only realize that God has some work for them to do until He calls them how much happier they would be, Then too the time will come to them when they will realize "Some day we'll understand." Have we at times lost an opportun- ity for leading some one to ,Christ? The story is told of a minister who one cold rainy night in Englancl said "I do not think I will attend church tonight for no one will be there." He later decided to go but found only a few people scattered among the pews. He then thought he would not preach the sermon he had prepared but finally he did .go on. That night a young boy up m the gallery was converted and began to live for Gimlet. That boy was Rev, Charles H. :Spurgeon who led a multi- tude to Christ all the world over. It may be that minister did not live to see the result of that one boy being converted that night but he will be among those to whom the words will apply, "Some day we'll understand." Perhaps we have made plans to go to some social function or it might even be to church. The tele - Phone has rung and we have been summoned to go to some one win, was ill. We have been very much disappointed that we could not keep our appointment although glad to help the sick one. All the time there has been running through their mind, "Why dia this have to happen just at this time? We have all experienc- ed something along that line but uestions and nswers GENERAL Q What are Canada Savings Bonds?

Then we will see the whole plan, of ow lives. Those who are laid aside by siekess will see why they were not' permitted tO go about as others; the mother and daughter will realize the reason for their parting whigh was so sad at the time; the mother and father will know why their child was taken from them and they were left desolate; those who have met with adversity, the lonely, and those who have lost opporturn ities, or have been disappointed will see the whole plan of their lives laid out before them and one and all will thank God that He took His own way in their lives. His way is best and what we see darklen now will all be in the bright rays of Heaven than, May we be there to see it. We can if we just wept Christ as our Saviour. "The cross wee the only bargain God eaer made, sinee then He has only made gifts." 'Not now, but in the coming years— It may be In the better land— We'll read the meaning of our tears, And there, some time, -we'll under- stand. God lmows the way, Ile holds the key, He, guides us with unerring hand; Some time with tearless eyes we'll see, Yes, there, up them, we'll under- stand. Then trust in God through all thy days; Fear not, for He doth hold thy hand; Though dark thy way, still sing and praise; Some time, some time, we'll under- stand." pEG0 1 a MSS 26 YEARS MARRIED DUBLIN — Mr. and MM..
