By H. W. HAM,
The sermon at the armory last
evening by the girl: evangelist was
taken from Genesis using chapter 20.
beginning with verse' IS, in which a
description of the condition of the
wells that had once been in use, but
were now filled with earth, waj given.'
. The 12-year-old "Bert" of Califor
nia" likened .man's present spiritual
condition to wells that bad once been
so full of the love of God that they
were able to produce aomething, but
were now choked with the cares of
the world.
"God provides an artesian well,"
ahe said, and all that man is requir
ed to do ia dig until he finda it.
When once found, she continued, "the
water belongs to . Mini'.'
.She said that if one .desired the
"living water that comes from God
alone" get down on your kneea and
begin to dig.
This young girl preacher often sur
prises some of the wise ones by giv
ing them some real points for seriotiB
thought, and advice. For inatnnce aho
told her audience last evening that
they should not hire some one to do
their digging for them not to expect
the preacher to do their digging for
them for the going after "living wat
er" .was otrictly an Individual matter.
"Do your own digging," shexsaid. .
