going to neuresthenic patients.
When one learns to enjoy God, as
well as to obey Him, one has en-
tered upon an experience of whole
someness and holiness.
To this end close meditation
upon the Psalms is most helpful.
Nightly uncounted persons pillow
their heads upon the spirit of the
Psalms. Peace and comfort flow
from these words penned thousands
of years ago; which are really more
contemporary to the souls of men
than the days newspaper. We find
ourselves when we lose ourselves in
contemplation of the greatness of
God. AS our lesson Psalm fairly
shouts:
Great is Jehovah and greatly to be
praised '''
Ascribe unto Jehovah, ye kindredS
of the people,
Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and
strength.
Ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due
unto His name"
The Praying Monks.
When visiting the Greek Monas-
terry of st. Katherine, on Mount
Sinai, I was invited by the monks
to share their nightly service of
worship. At o'clock in the morn
ing we assembled in the Chapel of
the Burning Bush. and the monks
went through their rich ritual of
prayer and praise. Their "Kyrie
Eleison' still rings in my ears.
There was no congregation, except
myself and two companions; the
service was designed purely for the
worship of God. Again and again,
especially at sacred sites in Bible
lands, I have seen monks and nuns
OF the Roman and Greek rites,
maintaining a ceaselesS vigil of
prayer and praise, and it has moved
me to a stronger sense of the place
OF sheer worship in religion.
Is it surprising that the faces of
all these praying Christians were
marked by strength and serenity?
They had linked their souls with
the verities of the Eternal Their
lives were attuned to all nature. Our
Psalmlst pictures the heavens, the
earth, the sea and the trees of the
wood ip common exultation. The
worshipper is in tune with the
Infinite" That virile and devout
spirit, Rev. D. Maltbie D. Babcock.
expressed the mood:
This is my Fathers world.
And to my listening ears.
All nature sings, and round me
rings
The music of the spheres.
This is my Fathers world.
rest me in the thought
OF rocks and trees, of skies and
HIS hand the wonders wrought"
Our Psalm ends on the note that
this distracted day is most eager to
near: the triumphant Righteousness
OF God. He whom we adore is not
needless of the moral state of ma
tlons and of men. God is not neu-
tral when right fights with wrong
He will Judge the world with
Righteousness,
And the peoples with His truth"
The theme of the days battle song
is one with that of the old Hebrew
singer: Our God is marching on"
