God Rules.

III me worth and the sincere re-
ligiosity of men is more easily ascer-
tanned by the manner in which they con-
template the future than of the view
they take of the present or the past.
All men are at length reconciled to the
past, and habit enables them to bear
with the present; but it is not so easyt to
look forward with Indifference or calm
ness to that which may come. The
more a man fears for the future, the
less is the worth of his heart, the less
the sincerity and depth of his re~ligiosity.
The more cheerfully and happily he
looks forward to the days that are com
ing, the purer is his mind, the truer is
his religion.
for weak sensuous persons, strongly
attached to what is earthly-persons to
whom what they eat, and what they
drink, their household furniture, their
worldly position, and the consideration
in which they are held by others, are
the most important matters-must, of
course, be more fearful of the future
than others. because they have set their
hearts on things thatmust perish. They
must tremble, in spite of their trust in
God! for they know beforehand that
God will not leave them forever to the
joys of the senses. Their own con-
science tells them that they cling more
to what belongs to the dust than to
what is Divine and eternal; that they
value mere worldly appearance more
than the virtue which raises hs above
the world. The truly God-fearing and
God-trusting Christian, on the contrary.
looks cheerfully toward the future. 1t
terriies him not because it may bring
punishment for hidden sins, for he IS
guiltless, though not faultless. What
ever wrong he has done he at once en-
deavors to make amends for. He has
done all that man can do, and that a
follower of Jesus is bound to. What
ever God may have ordained, whether
1t be war or peace, riches or poverty,
joyful intercourse with beloved objects,
or the death of the latter-storm or
sunshine-he knows that God rules.
And when he sees the storm-cloud roll
ing toward him it is Gods voice that
says to him: "Be still, and know that I
am God"
Why, then, should I fear, o Lord, if
1t be Thee, my God, my Father, who
sendeth forth the thunder-cloud of fate?
Without Thy will how can it harm me?
And can it be Thy will to render me
miserableP-me, Thy child, whom Thou
hast created and destined for eternal
bliss; Thy helpless child, who holds
everything he possesses from Thee, 0
Almighty God! Nay, 1 feel no uneasi-
ness. I fear not my own death; for
what is death but the discovering of the
bonds of earth, freedom to the immortal
soul, union with Thee? What, then,
should I fear? Give or take, exalt me
or abase me, let me be the Joy of my
friends or fall the victim of my enemies.
I accept with thankfulness whatever
fate may befall me, for Thou art my
Father; Thy love is my highest good,
virtue my palladium; all else belong to
the dust, and must sink into the grave.
I am still, still and full of trust, trustful
and joyful, for I know Thou art
God, my God, forever! Amen!-MedS-
tations from the German of Zschokke.
