GUIDANCE
(Concluded)
Rev. M. C. Howard
To know the mind of the Lord we
* must attend certain practical direc
tions:
1. Our Motives Must Be Pure.
“When thine eye is single, thy whole
body is full of light.” Lk. 11:34.
Have you been in darkness? Per
haps this statement points the rea
son, your eye has not been single.
There is some obliquity of vision. A
pirilual squint that has hindered you
from discerning indications of God’s
viil that otherwise was as clear as
he noonday sun.
We must judge our motives with
are, searching them like the detec
ives search each stranger that enters
he House of Commons. When we have
been delivered from grosser forms of
sin by the grace of God, we are still
iable to the subtle workings of self
n our holiest hours, which poisons
iur motive. Bringing decay to our
fairest fruit bearing, whispers seduc
tive flattery into our pleased ears,
urning the spirit from its holy pur
poses and intentions.
Just as long as there is thought of
personal advantage, an idea of acquir
ing praise and commendation of men,
>r some aim at self-aggrandisement,
it will be impossible to find God’s pur
pose concerning ourselves. The door
must of necessity be shut against all
such, if we expect to hear the still
small voice. AH cross lights must be
excluded if we would see the Urim
and Thummim stone brighten with
God’s “yes,” or darken with His “no.”
Ask the Holy Spirit to give the sin
gle eye, and to inspire in our hearts
one aim alone; the same that ani
mated our Lord, and enabled Him to
cry, as He reviewed His life, “I have
glorified Thee on the earth.” “Glory
to God in the highest’ must be our
watchword. Then our “whole body
shall be full of light, having no part
dark, as when the bright shining of a
candle doth give light.”
2. Our Will Must Be Surrendered.
“My judgment is just; because I
seek not mine own will, but the will
of the Father which hath sent me.”
Here we have the secret which Jesus
practiced and taught. In some form
He was constantly insisting on sur
rendered will as key to perfect knowl
edge. “If any man will do His will,
he shall know.” There is a vast dif
ference between an extinguished will
and a surrendered will. God does not
demand that our wills be withered but
that they be pliant to Him, as the
willow twig to the practiced hand.
Often there is secret controversy be
tween our will and God’s. And we
shall never he right till we have let
Him take, break and make our wills
just as He wills. We must brand our
selves over to Him to work in us to
will and to do of His own good pleas
ure. In other words be as plastic
clay, ready to take any shape the
great Potter may choose, then shall
we be able to detect His guidance.
3. W’e Must Be Much in Prayer.
The Psalms aer full of pleadings
for clear direction. “Teach me thy
way 0 Lord; lead me in a plain path,
because of mine enemies.” It is the
law of God that His children ask for
what they want. “If any * * * lack
wisdom, let him ask of God who up
braideth not.”
In time of change or crisis, we need
knees but in that sweet form of in
to be rmich in prayer, not only on our
ward prayer, in which the spirit is
constantly offering itself up to God,
asking to be shown His will; soliciting
that it may be impressed readily upon
its surface. Wrapt in prayer like that,
the believer may tread through the
darkest hours, sure that He who points
the stars their courses will not fail
to direct the soul that has nq other
aim but to do His will.
We often make a mistake thinking
that God is not guiding us because
we cannot see far ahead. Such is not
His method, He only designs that the
“steps of a good man is ordered by
the Lord.” Not the next year but
today. Not the next mile but the next
yard. If we expect more than this
we will be disappointed and get into
the dark. We need to ponder deeply
the lesson of the cloud given in the
beautiful picture lesson on guidance
in Numbers 9:15-23. Be sure you look
high enough for guidance. Encour
aging our souls to wait only on God
till it is given, cultivating that meek
ness which He will guide in judgment.
Let us seek to be of quick under
standing, that we may be apt to see
the least sign of His will.

IN LOVING MEMORY OF OUR
DEAR UNCLE
—OOO—
The Death Angel visited the home
of Mr. Marion Hooper on December
31, 1932, and took him away to his
home in Heaven. Death came though
not unexpected, he had the dreaded
disease of Heart trouble, he was in
had health for nearly a year but was
just as patient as could be.
All was done for him that loving
hands could do. But it wasn’t the
Lords will for him to live. Uncle
Marion said some months before he
died that he was ready to go but he
dreaded to leave his relatives and his
friends. He professed a Hope in
Christ when young and joined ti
Baptist Church at Coal Mountain.
The Church has lost a good member
the community a good friend. He was
laid to rest at Haw Creek after Fun
eral Services conducted by Rev. G. W.
Forrist, he leaves one Brother, Mr.
M. J. Hooper and two sisters, Miss
Martha Hooper and Mrs. Mary Wright
and a host of relatives and friends to
mourn his departure.
In Love he lived in Faith he Died.
His life was craved but God denied.
Written by his Nephew,
ALTON HOOPER.
