fore us. The Bible does nc% .4ttempt to
prove the existence of God, bud repeated
" refers us to nature for proof. Nature
utters its voice.
"FrOm SCARED cliff and quarried
stOne." OF old, as the legend goes, the
barber of King Midas dug hole in the
ground and into itwhispered a secret and
filled the hole. But soon the blades of
grass were whispering it. So God Of old
told this secret to nature, and now stars
and rocks and leaves proclaim it.
Earth" says great man, is but the
frozen echo Of the silent voice of God"
There is the voice of aspiration. 1t
listens to experience, but refuses to
take experience for its final appeal.
1t seeks experience Of its own. 1t is
restless, headstrOng. 1t is not sure it is
right, but it goes ahead. Sometimes it
looks before it leaps, but it leaps. 1t
belongs to youth, and the continual pos
session Of it is the foundation of perpet-
ual youth. The man dies when aspira-
tion dies. When man ceases to wish
to be something better; truly better and
greater he may as we'll die.
Then there is the voice of adversely.
Nothing succeeds like success" it is
said. Nothing has succeeded better than
recovery from failure. Many a man has
truly succeeded because failure saved
him from too easy success. The most
splendid of human achievements have
been called out by human SORROWS and
disasters. We talk of faith as opposed to
human means. But that is not faith
which ignores what God through genera
tiOns of sorrow and pain has slowly
taught to men.
Another voice is that of reason. 1t ap-
peals to all men and in varying tones,
but always with our authority. Its af-
firmatiOns always carry our highest
sense Of what is right, and our cOnfid-
ence in the correctness of the belief with
which we live and in whose faith we die
is in the last analysis our confidence in
the correctness of our reason.
Finally, thereis the voice of conscience.
1t always commands, and no man is ever
justified in disObeying it. No man can
do more than preserve conscience void
of Offense.
What conscience tells me should be done
Or warns me not to do,
| Thus teach me more than hell to shun,
That more than heaven pursue"
That is a significant utterance of Paul,
''There are, it may be, so many kinds Of
voices in the world, and none Of them is
without signifcation." All voices have
their meaning, and ali the higher voices
are in harmony. The world has other
and discOrdant voices-vOices Of strife,
anger, unhOly ambition, greed and NAL
ice-and these are a babel of noisy and
nearly meaningless Glamour. But the
the higher voices are in harmony. Thy
wisdom cries in the street and her voice
is in harmony with the music of the
spheres. Nature cries aloud with her
many voices, every birds song pouring
forth wisdom, every blade of grass ton
que with speech, and all her voices in
harmony. Life is neither a solo nor a
jargon or chorus. Let us hear these
higher, truer, deeper voices and respond
to them. So shall we make the most Of
life.
