i 4t the church to the truth that Jod watches over . .is and all things I and all men, it ‘Providence.” In fact all that God does, in relation to mankind, and to his universe, is lummed up in

two words. Crra- Dr. lorenuui tion and Providence. But the current lesson from the Bible, part of the story of Paul, i may help to untangle the truth , about Providence. God's care for ' his creatures, from some wrong ideas about it.

Will God Keep Me Fr»« All Har«l

We sometimes say that God will keep us from all harm; but if we stop to think about it, if we see how God has acted in times past and what the experiences of Christians have been, we shall realise that to say that God will keep me from all harm is saying more than the facts will support. God will not keep you from dying. He has not kept many of his children from death. Even his only Son Jesus Christ actually died on Calvary. We sometimes think a man is peculiar if he keeps a coffin in his house for future use; but while it may be unusual to do that, it isn’t crazy. Unless you die at sea. or get vaporized by an H-bomb, or something extraordinary like that you may as well buy your casket now. What is left of you will neec a coffin of some kind. This is tru< no matter how good you are. God will probably not keep yot from all suffering. Even if yov never have an ache or a pain in your body, even if you die at 80 with all your teeth as good as new, even if your friends all outlive you so that you never have to mourn their deaths —if you have a heart I at all, if you share the mind of Christ, you will be torn with compassion, as he was. by the thought of the millions without a shepherd. The more Christian you are, the more the sorrows of the world will , weigh on you. From Final Evil What God will keep you from, is what we might call final evil. If we think over the lives of great Christians and saints, we can see what God’s Providence meant in their lives. Take Paul as a fair example. There at Jerusalem God did not save him from being half- ' killed, though he did save him from being killed. He saved him from being scourged, but he did not save him from being a prisoner. There is always a worse something from which God spares us. And what is the worst? It surely is this: that a man be separated hopelessly and finally from God his Creator and Father. Sorrow and suffering may keep us from seeing God; but no darkness need keep us from knowing that he is there. The Christian may have to walk in the valley of the shadow of death and what greater darkness is there? There is one greater darkness than this, the black night in which man has lost God forever. But this does not come to the man of faith. Paul more than once thought he was going to die, and finally was killed; but he never lost God* »* Is God My Bodygsard? When the President of the United States goes on a trip, even for a few blocks, he does not worry about his personal safety. The Secret Service men do the worrying for him. As his bodyguard it is their responsibility to see that no harm comes to him. He carries no gun; but he is surrounded by guns on all sides. Is God my bodyguard? Does he take afi responsibility for my personal safety? Can I leave an the worrying to him ? We can leave the worrying to him, yes; but we have a personal responsibility too. We can say that God kept Paul from the agony and danger of a Roman scourging; but how? If Paul had not spoken up when be did, and told the officer that he was a Roman citizen, he would have been scourged anyway. God’s care of us works best when we act in partnership with him.
