If you need guidance in your
personal problems; if you want
to be shown just what to do,
turn your thoughts to God. Ask
Him to reveal to you the meth
DDS to use and the steps to take.
God is your higher self and is
in constant waiting upon you.
He loves to serve and will at
tend faithfully to the most
minute detail of your daily life.
Use Him every hour of the day.
If you are in doubt about a
business move, no matter how
trivial, close your eyes for one
instant and ask the Silent One
within you what to do. The
answer may come instantly; it
may come when you least ex-
pect, and you will find your
self moved to do just the right
thing.
AS you turn to God in trust
He will guide you in the way
you should 60 Many persons
feel restless and dissatisfied and
continually search for some
thing to satisfy the longing and
the need they feel within them
selves. When they fail to find
satisfaction in their personal
life or in their business or pro-
fession, some persons turn to
drink or drugs for release. Our
souls can never be satisfied from
without. We can never over
come restlessness and unhappi-
ness through stimulants or Seda-
tiveS. The only real, lasting sat-
isfaction comes from the Christ
within US, the very source OF
life and peace Everyone who
longs for peace of mind can
find it through Jesus Christ.

dark hour let this be our rour
