We love the places, the persons,
the things possessing these great
qualities. strength and beauty.
The best strength and choicest
beauty in the world (the strength of
consecrated Christian purpose. the
beauty of Christlike character) are
found in the sanctuary and service of
God. The responsibilities of living
in this world of sin are SO great. the
obligations resting upon those whose
chief end Of existence is to glorify
God are so vital, that men who are
true to themselves and their better
natures. cannot. dare not, attempt to
get along without God, nor without

pointed places

of Gods house. and Of our obtaining

two masters. No heart can vow and
hold its allegiance to two kingdoms
in deadly opposition. By grasping in
thought and desire the strength and
beauty to be found In his sanctuary,
men by law which is as .mmutable
as God himself lose their hold and
fondness for everything which is sin
full. The keener and the truer this
conception of God is, the deeper will
be the senses Of sin and the more
thorough the work Of grace in purify
ing our hearts and lives
Again, we are relieved from all the
embarrassment in which we may ind
ourselves in the providence of God
by setting our hearts desires on the

David declares. when bafied and

He learned there who stand in
slippery places" and also the awful
fact that their steps in due time shall

He discovered as a fact of faithful
ness that God holds the righteous by

his counsel, and afterward receives
them into his glory" There is no
other explanation to the inequality of
rewards and punishments in this life;
to the apparent unequal distribution
of this worlds goods; to the suffer
