By Carlos A. 11 jj miner lHRTH AM) INFANCY OF JESUS . Mat. 1:1-2:23. While shepherds guarded sheep by night - Out in the fields near Bethlehem, An Angel came with glory bright And told this Joyful news to them: "In David's town is born today A Savior who is Christ, The Lord ; " . And Him they found without delay According to the Angel's word. They also saw the Angel throng ' That holy night of Jesus' birth, And. heard, them sing their Joyful song: "Good will ito men, and peace on earth." The Magi Journeyed from afar Inquiring for (the new-born King, For they had seen His natal star And came their offerings to bring. They were sent on to Bethlehem ! Where Scripture said Christ would be born, And as they went, the star led them To Him, the (brilliant Star of Morn. King Herod sought the child to slay, And so the holy farn'ly fled And into Egypt went to stay i Until the cruel king was dead, From Egypt then God called His Son Back to the land of Israel; But Archelaus they would shun And went to Nazareth to dwell.

Sermonette Edited by Harriet R. MacDonald The steps of a good man are ordered iby the Lord. Psalm 37-23. We may hold fast to the providence of the Lord. We may not see the purposes of that providence in our lives at the time, .but like the power which holds the silent stars in their courses, the providence of the Lord Is unceasing. Slowly, through ways of which we know nothing, through darkness and light, through happi ness and sorrow, (through success and failure, the hand of the Lord is lead ing every soul on the course that is best for the eternal happiness of that soul. There 1b another anchor which cannot slip. If, in the providence of the Lord, we seem to have more than our share of difficulty and trial, then we can look away beyond it all, and gain fresh confidence, for nothing can take from us the vision of that land "which is very far off," yet also very near to the soul which has faith. Deep In our hearts we can treasure that vision, not to weaken us for life's struggle, not to - make us im patient, but to give us the quiet j derful home of the' soul, and that talnty of the rising of tomorrow's "Science ana Health with Key to the Scriptures," toy Mary Baker Eddy, in cluding the following: "Oh, that X knew where I might ' find him I That I might come even to his seatl" (Job 23:3). "That God is a corporeal feeing, I nobody can truly affirm . . . Not . materially but spiritually we know Him as divine Mind, as Life, Truth, and Love." "A mortal, corporeal, or i finite conception of God cannot em- I brace the glories of limitless, incor poreal Life and Love. Hence the un satisfied human craving for some thing better, higher, holler, than is afforded by a material belief in a physical God and man." (S, & H., pp, 140, 258).
