The common lot of humanity just now seems to be sorrow, disappointment, despair, and gloom. But as Christians, we have a refuge. We may dwell "under the shadow of the Al mighty," and that shadow is a protection and a blessing, just as the weary desert traveller, scorched by the sun, welcomes the shadow of a great rock in the desert sands. That was likely the thought of the Psalmist. Let us also remem ber that even the shadows of our afflictions can have vir tue. There is never a shadow unless there is a light. The shadows are a witness to the light. For the moment it may be that some obstruction pre vents us from rejoicing in the rays of that light, but we know that the light is shining be cause we can see the shadow. We rejoice in what light we re ceive, and we thank God for the shadows which betoken the full light of day. In early morning the shadows are long, they betoken the beginning of the day. The Psalmist wrote for the comfort of God's peo ple, "Though I walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Death, I will fear no evil, for thou art with me." He that dwellth in the secret place of the , Most High shall abide un der the shadow of the' "Al mighty. Amen. Able to Be Out Mrs. S. J.
