FROM OUR RELIGIOUS
CONTEMPORARIES
The World We Live In.
1t is a fine world to live II our hearts
are right and at peace. 1t Is the. evil
heart. with It's unbelief In God, it's forI
getfulness of the Maker, Its selflshncss,
Its love OF the world. its low Ia stes and
desires, that sees no beauty in Gods
world and finds 10 truth nor love written
by the finger OF God upon the works OF
his hands. 1t is the heart at peace with
itself and at rest In the Fathers love-
1t is our faith In God and hope in his
Word that makes the beauty Of this pres
ent world, e. promise Of the world where
the flowers never fade and tho sun never
goes down.-Central Presbyterian.
