How may I live in this modern space age? The Lord Jesus Christ gave me “life, and breath and all things,”—Acts 17:24. I want to enjoy life and get the most out of it, don’t you? God made me with a free will and it’s only reasonable that I give myself back to Him. “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God”—Rom. 3:23. “By faith we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ”—Rom. 5:1. I have accepted the Lord Jesus and have peace in ray heart. Have you? Metz, Dorothy L. Box 247, Sundre, Alberta. Man strives with his intellect to know what is in space. Seeking self- satisfaction, yet finding no peace, he says, “There is no God.” I know where true peace is found. Romans 5:1 .. . we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. The day I accepted Christ as my personal Saviour I found peace with God. Through my daily committment to Christ I can experience also “the peace of God which passeth all understanding,” and which keeps my heart and mind through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:7. I praise God for this truth and many others which J have learned at F.G.B.I. Neumann, Violet L. Somme, Sask. John 15:16 tells me that I am chosen and ordained to go and “bring forth fruit.” To be chosen to do something for a great personality is a great honour and we would certainly try our very best to do the task well. How much greater is the privilege to be chosen by God to go forth and tell others of My prayer is that I may be faithful to my calling and try His bidding. I want to give my life to Him who gave Gammie, Mrs. Bea D. H. Box 579, Eston, Sask. His saving grace, my utmost to do Himself for me. Since the Lord has saved me, and enabled me to study His precious Word for three enjoyable years, my whole ambition has been that I may hold forth the Word of Life, so that, as Paul writes in Philippians 2:16, “I may rejoice in the Day of Christ, knowing I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.” This was his foremost aim in living, for he writes in Phil. 1:20, “Christ shall be magnified in my body whether it be by life or by death.” Paul also writes, “For me to live is Christ and to die is gain.” Phil. 1:21. Snyder, Roger L. Box 1248, Drumheller, Alberta. In John 14:15 we read, “If ye love me, keep my commandments.” Here we have the essence of love to Christ. If we love Him we will keep His commandments. I will keep His commandments, not because I am commanded, but because I love Him. This is the burden and desire of my heart, that I may love Him, and show my love to Him by keeping His commandments. If I love Him then I will be willing to follow Him wherever He leads. To love Him is to obey Him. Brock, clayton w Box 34, Abernethy, Sask. 16 God’s best gifts to us are not things but opportunities.
