'6It's good to be in the hands of od Dr. Maartin Vrieze 1 922-1986 Psalm 121 I IM up my eyes to the hills - where does my help come hom? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip - he who watches over you will not slumber,- indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord watches over you - the Lord is your shade at your right hand,- the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord will keep you hom all harm - he will watch over your life: the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore. Dr. Maartin Vrieze dedicated the last twenty years of his life to building Christ's kingdom in the lives of Trinity's students. As pro- fessor of sociology, philosophy, and five or six other subjects, Dr. Vrieze challenged his students by teaching them to question rather than by giving them the answers. In his classroom, all the common assumptions were re- evaluated. The love of God, however, was beyond ques- tion for Dr. Vrieze. This he often taught by word - You'd better believe it! - and by his consistent exam- ple of faith, hope, and love. Through Dr. Vrieze's long bout with cancer, his strength and courage come from knowing God is the one in control. As a favorite Dutch hymn says, For clouds, for winds and breezes He makes a path, a lane, He'll surely find the pathways 'long which your feet can go. Dr. Vrieze taught us to ponder the hard questions, but he also taught us who holds the answers. He often said, It's good to be in the hands of God. As in- dividuals and as a college community, we know we also are in the hands of God. Psalm 73:23-28 Yet I am always with you,' you hold me by my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and aherward you will take me into glory. Whom have I in heaven but you? And being with you, I desire nothing on earth. M y flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. Those who are far hom you will perish: you destroy all who are unfaithful to you. But as for me, it is good to be near God. I have made the Sovereign Lord my refuge: I will tell of all your deeds.
