I will cause the shower ot come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing.
what is the season this morning? Is it a season of drought? then that is the season for showers. is it a season fo great heaviness and black clouds?

Our father's love is too true to be weak. Because He loves His children, He chastises them that they may be partakers of His holiness. With this glorious end in view, He spares not for their crying. Made perfect rhrough suferings, as the Elder Brother was, the sons of God are trained up to obedience and brought to glory through much tribulation.

In all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. (Romans 8:37)
this is more than victory. this is a triumph so complete that we have not only escaped defeat and destrucion, but we have destroyed our enemier and won a soil so rich and valuable that we can thank God that the battle ever came.

Now thanks be unto God.

Oh, this is bitter work for Him and us---bitter for us to go, bu equally bitter for Him to case us pain; yet it must be done.
Take heart! it could not be better to stay when He determines otherwise; and if the loving hand of our Lord puts us forth, it must be well. on, in His name, to green pastures and still waters and mountain heights! .............Whatever awaits us is encountered first by Him.

Charlie Z. Song

Dew will never gather while there is either heat or wind. The temperature must fall, and the wind cease, and the air come to a point of coolness and rest----absolutely rest, so to speak--before it can yield up its invisible particles of moisture to forth to rest the soul of man until the still point is fairly and fully reached.

Charlie Z. Song

winds, sometimes His strong winds. They are God's hurricanes, but, they take human life and
lift it to higher levels and toward God's heavens.
You have seen in teh summer time a day when the atmosphere was so sppressive that you
could hardly breathe?

Charlie Z. Song

was writing questions on the balckboard for the children: "why has God made me to hear
and speak, and made you deaf and dumb?"

Charlie Z. Song

They sat palsied before that dreadful "why?" And then a little girl arose.
Her lip was trembling. Her eyes were swimming with tears. Straight to the board she walked,
and picking up the crayon, wrote with firm hand these precious words "Even so, Father, for
so it seemed good in th sight!" What a reply!

Charlie Z. Song

When you do, then your dove of faith will no longer wander in weary unrest, but will settle
down forever in its eternal resting place of peace, "Your Father!"
I can still believe that a day comes for all of us, however far off it may be, when we shall
understand; when these tragedies, that now blacken and darken the very air of heaven for
us, will sink into their places in a scheme so august, so magnificent, so joyful, that we shall
laugh for wonder and delight.

Charlie Z. Song

His grace is great enough to meet the great things--
The crashing waves that overwhelm the soul,
The roaring winds that leave us stunned and breathless,
The sudden storms beyond our life's control.

Charlie Z. Song

in the top of the mount. And no man shall come up with thee. (Exodus. 34:2/3)

The morning watch is essential. You must not face the day until you have faced God, nor
look into hte face of others until you have looked into His.
You cannot expect to be victorious, if the day begins only in your own strength. Face the
work of every day with influence of a few thoughtful, quiet moments with your heart and
God. Do not meet other people, even those of your own home, until you have first met the
great Guest and honored Companion of your life---Jesus Christ.

Charlie Z. Song

Meet Him alone. Meet Him regularly. Meet Him with His open Book of consel before you; and
face the regular and he irregular duties of each day with the influence of His personality
definitely controlling your every act.

Charlie Z. Song

They say tha sprigs of sweet fresh water well up amid the brine of salt seas; that the fairest Alpine flowers bloom in the wildest and most rugged mountain passes; that the noblest psalms
were the outcome of the profoundest agony of soul.
Be it so. And thus amid manifold trials, souls which love od will find reasons for bounding,
leaping joy. Have you learned this lesson yet? Not simply to endure God's will, nor only to
choose it; but to rejoice in it with joy unspeakable and full of glory.

Charlie Z. Song

No instinct can be put in you by the Holy Ghost but He purposes to fulfit. Let your faith then
rise and soar away and claim all the land you can discover.----------S. A. Keen.

All you can apprehend in he vision of faith is your own. Look as far as you can, for it is all your
All that you long for to be as a Christian, all that you long to do for God, are within the
possiblilities of faith. Then come, still closer, and with your Bible before you, and your soul
open to all the influences of hte Spirit.
