Mitchelmore. “And ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.”—John 8:32. It to possible to insulate the home against fire hazards. A home may be so constructed that cold or heat never seem unpleasant. But no home whether small or great can keep some trouble from entering. • »«I “AH kinds of trouble haunt me,” groans the discouraged man or woman. The complaint to true. There are but three kinds and he has them all. There are troubles that never happen. A large part of life con sists of this sort. We imagine that others are gossiping about us. We imagine the disasters that are sure to come. We imagine that so-and-so has insulted as. We sus pect that our neighbor is plotting againt For such difficulty it is well to realize that good happens more easily than _ evil < in God's world. Jesus Christ promises that if we know the truth derived from a simple faith in Him, such troubles will no longer be ours. There are troubles that come up on us through no fault of our selves. The present disasters tak ing great toll of life and property in the East cannot be entirely the fault of those who suffer. Crops do fail, sickness does come, friends do prove false, but there will be less trouble if we meet dishonesty with honesty, slander with forgive ness and unkindness with kindness. If we know the truth as found in God’s Word we discover that all things do work together for good to those who love Him. Then there are troubles we bring upon ourselves. Isn’t it true that some people are in trouble where- ever they work ? They revolt against life and against God’s will. Sometimes we fail to respect the rights of others, sometimes we. make compromises with wrong, sometimes we stubbornly refuse to listen to older experiences. Trouble comes into life as a natural result. But there is a promise for the trouble we bring uppn ourselves, “Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.” ALLIS- I A l!
