CAROLYN ANDERSON How wonderful it is lo be a child of the King and have “an. inheritance, incorruptible and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven.” (1 Pet. 1:4). i am so thankful that the Lord led me to this school to train for His service. Not only have I received rich blessings in my study and class work, but it has been thrilling to see the way in which the Lord has answered prayer and led step by step. Words cannot express what these years nt B. B. 1. have meant to me, and I praise Him for His mercy and goodness. MURIEL CAPPON In the two years I. have been at B. B. L. the Lord has instructed me in many ways. I have come to know Him in a new way, and have learned to claim His promises. He has truly provided my every need, even to seeing me through all the seemingly endless examinations. I have learned that when the Lord gives you a task to perform which seems impossible. He will also give you all you need to accomplish it. Isaiah 41:10 — . . I will strengthen thee: yea, 1 will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” ALICE CHAMPION 1 am thankful for the teachings of God. His school isn’t wrapped in text books of knowledge; we must know Him from the heart. . It is my testimony that my experiences here at B. B. I. have strengthened by heart’s love for Him, and I thank Him that He has “lifted me up.” His mercy and love are appreciated beyond measure. His nearness was brought to me by the verse: “He hath not dealt with us after our sins: nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.” (Psalm 103:10.) Twenty-five

WILMA DEAN “Bui my God shall supply all your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” (Phil. 4:19.) I believe that the two years I have spent at B. B. I. have been the most profitable, helpful arid joyful years in my life. 1 could never expect to crowd as many lessons, experiences and blessings into two years as I have during 1946-45. Christ has become nearer and dearer to me every day as I have had U lean upon Him for my every need. The memories of Van Osdel Hall shall also be long remembered. My desire now is to BE and DO what Christ expects of me. MAXINE DUNITHAN “After all He’s done for me; after all He’s done for me. How can I do less than give Him my best, and live for Him completely? After all He’s done for me.” I am glad that I ac- cepted Jesus while I was yet quite young in order that I might have my whole life to live for Him. He took my feet out of the mirey clay, set them on the solid rock, Christ Jesus, and has given me the blessed hope of eternal life. I thank Him for leading me to B. B. I. to study His precious word so that I might be better prepared to tell others the way of salvation. My life is Proverbs 3:5-6, “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and lie shall direct thy paths.” DONNA HARRIS Romans 10:13 says, “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” I praise the Lord that “whosoever” included me, and now I am redeemed by the blood of the Lamb. 1 praise Hrm for the privilege of at- tending B. B. I. because 1 have come to realize more and more what Christ did for me when He shed His precious blood on the Cross of Calvary ibat I might have eternal life. I also praise Him for the sweet, Christian fellowship that 1 have enjoyed with the girls at Van Osdel Hall. Now as I leave school, I pray that I might always put Him first, others second, and myself last, that I might serve Him better. Twenty-six
