"GIVE GOD A CHANCE;"
REV. RICHARD O. ELIAN
MAKES A GREAT APPEAL
Preaching It North Avenue Presby
terian church Sunday night. Rev. Rich-
trd orme Fllnn took for his text.
-Yield Yourselves to God,” and plead
ed eloquently for surrendered lives.
I„ the course of his sermon Mr. Fllnn
laid:
-We ought to obey the appeal of
this text because In the past we have
obeyed the appeal from another source.
There Is not one of us In the past that
his not yielded himself to Satnn.- You
have yielded your temper, your tongue,
vour heart, your person to the power
of evil. Why should you not try Jesus
rhrist as heartily and thoroughly as
rou have tried Satan? Give God a
chance. The devil has had hts fling and
nsed you; now give God a chance to
“ , you. There have been times when
rou gave yourself right up -to the old
mood which was evil. Glvo yourself as
completely up to God, that He may
■how what He can do with you.
•••I am too weak,’ you say? God
■cat an angel to n man named Gideon
u d told him to save Israel from the
Mldlanltes. But Gideon said, ‘I'm not
the man you arc looking for. I am a
weak man. I haven't any Influence—
my family Is small In Israel.' But God
■aid, 'Have not I sent thee? I will be
with thee.’ Finally Gideon yielded
himself to God. and what did God do7
Hq took Gideon and 300 men and de-
llrered a nation from the oppressor!
Gideon gave God a chance, and God
hted that poor material to save Israel.
“God Wants Your Intellect”
«If God wants your intellect let Him
h»ve it. You may think It Is a very
poor choice on God's part, but let Him
hire what Ho wants In your life. A
young girl came to Mr. Campbell Mar
gin wanting to bo used In God's work,
but she said, ‘I can do nothing.' Ho
said. ‘Can you sing, at all?' 'No.' she
Hid. ‘Not at all?' ‘Well. I sing In
the parlor sometimes, and In the con
gregation, but I never led any singing.'
He said, 'Give God a chance with your
voice tonight, will you?' She said. '1
will, and that night she sang In Mr.
Morgan's meeting. She felt that her
voice was poor, but she offered' It to
God to use, and there was so much of
pathos, humility and tenderness In that
voice that God- did use It. Only one
man went Into the Inquiry room In the
sftsr-meetlng, and when questioned he
said It was the tenderness and passion
In the song that had led him there.
That man became a mighty Instrument
In God’s hand In England in the sal
vation of souls, going all over the
United Kingdom winning souls. The
girl had given God a chance to use
her voice, and He used It.
"You remember that tiny little fellow
among the crowd of people; ho had Just
a few fish and some little loaves of
bread. It didn't look like he could do
anything for God In that great crowd.
Ho had something to eat. but nothing
like enough for them. And God said.
'Give It to me: give me a chance.' And
the little fellow gave Him his basket
of fish and bread, and In God's hands
It fed a multitude, and baskets full were
taken up so that he had more a
they had all eaten than he had at
beginning. God always uses the man
and the means that are yielded to Him.
If God Isn't using you today It isn't
God's fault, it Is your fault. God needs
a hundred men and a hundred women
In this church. My, If there were 300
people yielded up to God In this church
we would see sights here that would
thrill this city. But we haven't two
hundred persons yielded up In any such
sense. And all through this city, and
this state, and throughout the world
the crying need Is for yielded lives. Oh
that God would cause you to say to
night. ‘Here am I, Lord; take me!' He
will do It.”

self, But Not
Benedict.
On account of repeated threats by
her husband, F. P. Armstrong, that he
intended to kill himself, Mrs. Arm
strong, the wife,, Saturday afternoon
had her husband arrested, after he had
begun to tank up on whisky.
After being locked In the police sta
tion, Armstrong broke out a window
pane and severely gashed his throat. He
was removed to the Grady hospital
where the wound was closed.
Monday morning Armstrong was able
to appear before Recorder Broylee. Mrs.
Armstrong pleaded for her husband,
saying she had him arrested merely
through fear that he might commit sul
cldc. On the promise of the husband
that he would not drink any more and
would behave hlmseir, tiro recorder al
lowed him to go, but held the case
open.
Judge Broyles reprimanded Arm
strong for trying to kill himself, re
marking:
"If a man Is alone In the world
think he ought to be permitted to kill
himself. Sometimes It Is a good rid
dance. But when a man has a wife and
children dependent on him and tries to
end hie life, he demonstrates that he Is
nothing but a downright coward.”
