DEVOTIONAL READING: Proverbs 16:1-9. Guidance From Proverbs Lesson for September 21, 1947 OUR study of Sunday’s lesson centers about the idea of goodness, which is a rtther trite-sound-ing theme, but very vital, I assure

you, and quite inter esting. The Scripture passages are all found in Proverbs, save one, and that from the very practical preacher of the New Testament, James, chapter 4, verse 17. Perhaps you will find the passages from Proverbs as helpful and inter-

rr rim to Dr. Newton

esting as I did. It will require but two minutes to read them —Proverbs 3:5-7; 4:23; 6:1619; 9:10; 14:34; 15:1; 16:18; 21:3; 22:1; 27:1, 2; 28:1; 29:18. And after you have devoted two minutes to the reading of these passages, you will have something to think about for the rest of the day, the week, all your life. • • • One Man’s Experience AVERY successful business man in Atlanta, a shoe manufacturer, was telling me his life story one day as we fished together at Homosassa, Fla. Finally, he said: “Do you know the passage in the Bible, that has meant most to me as a rule and guide for my faith and practice?” I wondered what he would say. And then he quoted from Proverbs 3:5-7. * j “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and be shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes; fear the Lord, and depart from evil.” » * • The Essence of Goodness WHAT is goodness? We talk about good men and bad men, good times and bad times, good luck and bad luck. Just what is goodness? Jesus himself once said to a young man: "There is none good but One, that is, God.” Mark 10:18. Goodness then, permit me to suggest, is what happens when God lives in us. We can never know goodness apart from God, try as we may. The essence of goodness, therefore, is found in that heart, in that life, that sincerely prays, "Thy will be done.” • « • Ths Essence of Badness GUIDANCE from these great Proverbs identifies the things that we are to shun as well as the things we are to do —the essence of badness as well as the essence of goodness. .Here are the seven things that God hates —the seven qualities of heart that constitute the essence of badness: “Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that deliberately plans wickedness, feet which are swift in running to mischief, a false witness who utters lies, and one who sows discord among brethren.” Analyze these seven qualities of heart, and you have the explanation of the woes of the world. Many clever modern books toy with these deadly sins, trying to make them seem good, but no amount of decoration can atone for the heart that consistently entertains these cancers of hell. • * • The Individual and Society I LIKE the impact of these Proverbs. They begin with the individual. They fruit in society. Individuals who "trust in the Lord with ail thine heart,” will "exalt a nation.” It is not enough to put better food in peoples’ stomachs, better clothes on their bodies, better roofs ovet - their heads. These are essential as expressing the better life; but you have got to give people something to live for as well as something to live on. , Good business depends upon * good business men. Good international relations depend upon good nations. Good race relations depend upon good races. We have been greatly enheartened by the establishment of United Nations as a world idea and ideal. Will it succeed? The answer is found not in dollars and bullets, but in hearts that alw’ays “trust in the Lord.” "Except the Lord build the house, They labor in tain that build it; . Except the Lord keep the city, I The watchman uaketh but in tain.” J —Psalm 127:1 > (Capyrifit by tbs latetaetiana’ Cause fl ot Rehtiaue Eduettioe on bebatf ot 40 Prateazdst d.-—.-.-cxtices.

KIDNEYS GETTING YOU UP NIGHTS? • If you get up nights—have frequent desire to pass your water —but have only scanty passages—yes, and have backache due to excess acidity in the urine, be glad you’re reading this: Three generations ago Dr. Kilmer, e famous doctor, found hundreds of his patients with this trouble. Painstakingly he made a medicine of 16 herbs, roots, vegetables, balsams —Nature’s own way to relief. He called it “Swamp-Root and millions of grateful men and women have taken it—often with amazing results. Swamp-Root goes right to work to flush out kidneys...increases the flow oi urine, helping to relieve excess acidity... so the irritated bladder gets a good flushing out, too. Many report getting a good night's sleep after the first few doses. Caution: take as directed. For free trial supply, send to Dept. S, Kilmer & Co., inc., Box 1255, Stamford, Conn.
