DAILY DFVOTIONS DR. CHARLES A. EDWARDS Tn this month of Februarv which commemorates two of America's preatest names, let us Donder the words of the nsalmist, "B'essed is the na tion whose Ood is the Lord." When he said that the great Hebrew singer was thlnktns of his own people. But we are the heirs of Israel's God. It is the God of Abraham, Issac. and Jacob as well as the God of Jesus whom we have in mind when we sing, "Our Father's God to Thee, author of liberty," hence we are jus tified in taking the psalm ist's words to our own heart, and in saying as American's, "Blessed is the nation whose God Is the Lord." What are the blessings which a satlon de rives from her belief in God? First of all, such a belief in God gives the blessing of a solid foundation on which to build a nation like an indivl dur, if Itsis to be strong must settltr-.tifeTteat of sovereignty. There 'v-rniist be some voice which, Tias the last word; "and what'ijifi the sovereign autho rity (h our nation? It is not our president. It Is not our coneress. : It Is not our. su preme. 'court." The citizen is responsible to God alone. This belief in God elves the-blessings of a solid and impreg nable foundation on. which we build. The Pilgrim Fathers who drew ud the Mayflower contract declared that what they did was for the glory of God and the advancement of the Christian faith and the honor of our country. "Our Fathers' God to thee," meant something. ' Amen. Winston Visitor C. E. Coo per of Winston shopped in Rose burg Monday.
