EDWARDS Someone has recently said: "The great weakness of our re ligious life is that we so inade quately apprehend the great ness of God,"' and the conse quence is that we are feeble In bur prayers, in our expecta tion, in our faith. What we need Is a fresh realization of God, His i mmeasurable strength, His moral greatness, His spiritual power. Perhaps the- best way to comprehend the greatness of God in the physical world is to stand on a elenr night in the presence of four thousand million heav enly bodies, and ask how they are kept moving in silence year in and year out. Never failing to discharge their mys terious functions. But when we think of God as the Eter nal Giver, who withholds noth ing His moral greatness over whelms us more than His tre mendous strength. But the greatness characteristic of God is His spiritual power. Think of Pentecost when timid peasants and fishermen were filled with power and went forth to transform the world. Is not this the supreme need of the hour? Walking con stantly with such a great God, nothing could be small, and to be filled with His power one might expect miracles. "If God be for us, who can be against us." .Amen. MONTGOMERY WARD'S STORE at 315 North Jackson St. will be CLOSED Monday, Jan. 31st Until 1 P. M. Our annual Inventory will be taken at this time.
