f INDING Of COD
IS PIVOTAL POINT
Rev. Melvin C. Hunt Says Gre.
ator Reveals Himself in
Common Happenings.

The pivotal point in any life is
the discovery OF God" In these
words is TO be found the keynote
Of a strong sermon on The Recog
milton OF God in Jesus" preached
by Rev Melvin c. Hunt at the
Trinity Methodist church Sunday.
Rev. Hunt emphasized throughout
the sermon. the fact that God re-
veals himself an the common things
and happenings of life. He said in
part:
When the early disciples asso-
ciated themselves with the Galilean
Prophet. they did not believe him
divine. II was after long months
and even years OF daily fellowship
before the fact OF his deity burst
upon them. But when this truth
really did get hold of them il
wrought marvellous changes. Peter,
the denier became dependable as
rock: Thomas. the dOubter. became
a devout believer; the two down
hearted disciples on their way to
Emmaus. were transformed into
apostles of fire: Saul. the slayer, be-
came the mighty preacher. These
men had not expected 20 find God
in human life. and when they did.
strange transformations took place.
The pivotal event in any life is the
discovery OF God in its common
happenings.
There are two great heresies
concerning God: one, is in believing
that God was more truly present in
human history in some past age
than He is today; and the other is
in regarding Him more present in
the unusual and spectacular event
than in the ordinary happenings.
Both Of these views are false.
There were many blind men in
Jericho that day when Jesus passed
by. but only one saw him. But
men with sinful hearts cannot see
God. They are like eyeless CHASTITY
figures cropping for the sun. and
finding it not. But the Lord God is
very near the humble penitent. and
while he is yet speaking. God will
answer; and In the midst of his
crying God Will enter. The glory
OF life is TO find God in it. The gold
of Alaska. or the diamonds OF
Kimberly cannot equal the value of
this greater discovery. To recognize
that God is in your life. not as a
memory but a Presence. not as a
wish but Power. will change mid
night into noon, despair into jubilant
praise"

At this time OF Christmas cheer.
hunger and need are ugly words.
They may mean little 10 you, but

dozens in our city must go without

In this time of prosperity and no
apparent lack of employment IL IS
perhaps hard for the citizen OF
South Bend 10 understand that
there is actual need in so many hun
dreds of homes. The high cost Of
living which so seriously affects the

salary, affects i'm a far greater meas

but a minor injury. a few days Of

in November than it had during the
