said In addition we must have a spiritual life plan, and for a model for
 such plan we look to Christ's life pn earth, whose keynote was service, as He served even His enemies. In a life of service. we may not be materially rewarded. but. we are truly rewarded, as in the case of Nathan Hale. who only regretted that he had
 but one life to give for his country. That was patriotism, which ia but ser vice to your country.
 Most of us have plans for our spir-
 itual life, but which are changed by God; so when some sudden change is made in your life. you may be sure that God has taken part. Robert Louis
 Stevenson had an out-of-door life
 planned for himself, but God willed that he have a life of sickness, and had Stevenson,s plan been carried out we would not have his great works, as he would not h1ve had time to write
 of his great desires.
 Again, we have the young who are in college, with a great plan before
