,iw A , i CLASSES . . . t'But now, O I.ord, thou art our Father, we are the clay, and thou our Potter, and we all are the work of thy hand. Isaiah 6428. In these words the Prophet Isaiah voiced the cry of God's people in a time when iniquity ahounded and apostacy was rife. There has always been a faithful remnant who have yielded their all unto God to become the work of His Hand. During this present age of infidelity and compromise God has a rem- nant, and as we, the students of the Bible Institute, yield our hearts and lives to His Holy Will, we join his remnant with the prayer: 'tHave thine own way, Lord, Have thine own way, Thou art the Potter, I am the clay, Mold me and make me, After thy will, While I am waiting, Yielded and still.

Chapel lThe following are only a small part of the Mas- ter Potters loving, shaping touches made possible by His consecrated workmen - His t00ls.l lt is an unwise thing to be so heavenly minded that we are no earthly good. l . t'Remember that the test of your ministry will be what you have left after you have gone. Beliefs are what a man holds, but a conviction holds the man. 'tSpirit-filled Christians are like mountain engines. What a load they carry l t'Our lives are to be according to His blueprint. The foundation of our life-building should be Christg the four walls: faith, prayer, love, and hope. lt is the Holy Spirit's desire to take the fullness of God and give it unto us. God must conquer our minds and affections, and subdue our wills. Gods work advances when the iron wills of men are made to float on the waters of gracef' t'God is far more interested in the worker than in the work. HI know Christ arose, because I met Him after He arose. When we believe, we don't worryg when we worry, we don't believe. 'tChristianity is a life! God is more concerned about you than about what you can do. The devil drives, but Jesus leads. t'Preachers are not sermon-makers, but man-makersf' t'Jesus' purpose was not to isolate Himself from social life, but to sanctify it. Faith is the silent partner of obedience. f'The path of obedience lies along the river of God's blessing. Satan may put a wall all the way round us, but he can't put a roof over us. God is working for us. in us, by us, and with us. t'Jesus is worthy of our confidence. He has great confidence in us. Let us have great confidence in Him. SIXTEEN

Jesus, the sweet Rose of Sharon, The Fairest of all to me, ln all Thy works and creation Help us Thy beauty to see. We would be followers of Jesus, And fragrant for Him we would be That as we walk in this pathway, Others His fragrance might see. The years we have spent in the Institute, Have molded and shaped our lives, They have taught us to be like the Master Humble and meek and wise. We have learned to follow Him closely, That we ever like Him might be, That we may shed forth His fragrance For this sinful world to see. Our Bible school days are now ended, We are leaving our school today, To tell the lost of salvation, By our lives and by what we say. ln the years that are now beginning, We want our own lives to tell, To a world that is lost and dying, To a world on its way to Hell. We want to go tell the glad story, That is ever new - yet old, To those who are lost and dying, To those who are out of the fold. -Irene Dillender. EIGHTEEN
