But laws, however good, cannot make

Communion with God.

God has provided ways in which Chris
tians can held fellowship with Him. For
instance, in the works of creation. In
each and all of them they behold Him all
formative and glorious. The heavens de-
clare Ills work Earth and sea proclaim
His power. Nature throughout her wide
domain shows forth His wisdom, good
ness and infinitude. The universe is the
temple il which He sits high-throned as
king, and over which He presides as the
omnipotent and magnificent lord. AS the
bodies of friends are loved on account
of the soul which tenants them, or as
the workmanship of those whom we love

fashioned ii into form and beauty, so
Christians derive satisfaction and enjoy
ment in viewing and studying Gods crea-
tive displays, because their father called
them into being and stamped upon them
the imprint of His greatness and beneti-
cence. They read them with a faiths
vision of the invisible. and note Him in
every object and gather cheer, .encour-
agemeEt, instruction and help in each
carrying manifestation of His skill, en-
ergy and splendor. The Presbyterian.
