DOROTHY G. MERRETT Jesus is all the world to me, my life, my joy, my all; He is my strength from day to day, without Him 1 would fall. When l am sad, to Him 1 go, no other one can cheer me so; When I am sad. He makes me glad, He’s my friend.” Jesus is my friend! I know that true happiness, peace, and joy, as well as daily strength, come from Him alone. After three wonderful years of study, I can say with Paul, “I am not ashamed of the Gospel of- Christ; for it is the power of God unto salvation. . . (Rom. 1:16). WAYNE D. LOWENBERG “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose” (Rom. 8:28). When we are faced with trials and temptations we tend to forget what Christ promised. If we love Him, He will work our problems out for good, not necessarily in our selfish, unreasonable ways, but in His sovereign way and in His own time. Remember, “God’s ways are not our ways” (Isa. 55:8), and His ways are always best. The Lord has been good to me during my three years in Bible School. Although I have failed Him many times, He has proven fo be a friend who will neither leave nor forsake me. SHARON E. SIGGELKOW A verse that I have found to be true is Psalm 145:3 which says, “Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.” must praise the Lord for He is so great and wonderful to me. I thank the Lord for saving me as a young girl and then for filling me with His precious Holy Spirit. God led me to Bible School and here I’ve come to realize more than ever what a “Great Big, Wonderful God,” I really have. It is a privilege and a pleasure to be able to serve such a God. My prayer is found in the words of the chorus :— “I want to do my best for Jesus, For He has done so much for me, No other one could be so worthy; Of all my love and loyalty.” 20 U 2 e fie ait of education, is. tfie education of t ie fieazt.

LORRAINE M. ANDERSON “Let the Lord have His way. In your life every day, There’s no peace, there’s no rest, Until the Lord has His way.” I am so thankful for all the Lord means to me. I am thankful that I let Him have His way. Truly there is no peace nor rest unless Christ has His way. My life is not my own, I am bought with the precious blood of fesus Christ. My desire is that I will be found in His perfect will. He will give me strength for every problem and trial. DOUGLAS A. LADE Jesus said, “For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but who¬ soever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it” (Luke 9:24). i4s the end of my three years in Bible School approaches the Lord has awakened in my heart a greater desire to accept more fully the will of God; that I might stand complete in His will. Whatever talents and abilities I have, have been given by Him, and must be used in His service in accordance with His plan. Thanks be to God for His unspeakable gifts. I thank Him for salvation and for His baptizing me in the Holy Spirit while I was very young. I learned that true joy and peace in this world are found only in Jesus Christ, the way, the truth and the life. MARILYN f. LAHNERT “I want to do my best for Jesus, for He has done so much for me. No other one could be so worthy of all my love and loyalty. I can truly say that this is my testimony. It is what I permit Christ to do through me that counts. Christ in me gives eternal life because He is eternal. Since I have attended Bible School my whole outlook on life has been changed. The Lord has given me a great burden for lost souls. I want Him to take my life and to use it according to His plan and purpose. endurance of tfie cron is tfze. assurance. of tie crovjn. 19

JANET E. WARD “I will praise thee O Lord, with my whole heart. . . (Psalm 9:1). Since I have come to Bible School the peace of God has become a wonderful reality in my life. 1 praise the Lord for making it possible for me to study His Word for the past three winters. It has been a joy and a privilege. Now as I leave school to go out into the world I want my life to tell for Jesus. “Where He leads me, I will follow,” and praise Him always for the joy, peace, and satisfaction there is in living for Him. JAMES R. LAPKA “Th ou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name for thou hast done wonderful things” (Isa. 25:1). I praise the Lord for this verse for it expresses the very desire of my heart — that Christ be glorified through me. “I sought the Lord and He heard me and delivered me,” Psa. 34:3-4, and the best I can do in return is to give my whole life to Christ for His service. Jesus came to do the will of His Father and He completed the work He was sent to do. It is with this intent that I want to live my life; to be full of the Holy Spirit so that Jesus will be exalted through me in everything I do and say. HELEN L. METZ “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God” (Matt. 4:4). Men have tried to live without the Word of God but without success, for it is the bread of life. Jesus said, “He that cometh to me shall never hunger.” There is only one way to receive this “Bread of Life,” and that is to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. He has promised to meet all our needs; spiritually and physically. I count it a privilege to study the Word of God. My desire is to make Christ known, for He alone is, “the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6). Jxutfi cicuo m jltislirs no oiatoxies. urit iout
