;Whet.. the T.JOrd speaks is the time to answer.
Paul found it so when on his 1\'ay to Dama.scus.
The Dord . does not always speak in auc1ible
:-f"{)ice as he did to Panl.
His message sometimes :is a gentle wooing of
the Holy Spirit.
At other times he prompt.s, cautions, pleads,
reproves, convicts, or in mercy sends judgments.
The Lord will always open a. way .of escape
to these who are true to him, although they may,
:be op.presse~on every hand ..
GOSPEL WORK FOR THE :BLIND.
&
Knowing many of Goel's children are illtensa~
Jy interested in t.his part of our l1eavenly
Patller's salvation work, I feel glad to ten you
'wllat 110 is doing for 11S. Since 0111' last report
,\ve have received $83.50. Ha"i'e bought two COl11-
hined ,vriters lmd a quantity of l1aper. r1'he
blind sisters are busy from early morning till
la.te at night preparing books for the Free Gos­pel
T-library for the blillcl, Pomona, Cal. The
postal anthorities granted the privilege of a
public library so. the books pass through the
mails free of postage, and we desire all in­terested
in getting the pure gospel literature
among the blind to send us names of blind
friends, whom we may interest in the library.
'There are also openings to place our )jooks in
t.ke 1 iln'ar"ks fOl~ the blind at other pl aces, and
we feel the need of pressing the work IonvHl'd.
:\Ye ask the prayers or all that all that is neces­sary
fu.:" ~e progress of the work may be pro­vided,
and that we all be kept humble, led of
God in all things.
,,\Ye llRve now in this library eight boolrs in
twent.y-five volumes and they are most all in
circulation. r£hey are called for as fast as fin­ished,
alia' are much appreciated by the readers.
'£hose who write for information regarding this
library can make choice or New York Point
Braille, or ink in correspondence, and all letters
fro111 the blind regarding spiritual matters \yill
receive careful and prayerful attention.
"\Ve will give a list of the books and tracts
ready for circulation and 110pe it may receive
the. attention necessary to bring it before the
blind in every community that the Gospel Trum­pet
visits.

OUR SUFFICIENCY.
BY ~WDIE E. SOULES.
JESUS F.:ays, "I can of mine own self do llotli­illg;
as I hear, I judge: and my jUdgment is
just; because I seek not mine own' will, but the
will of the Father \v}lich hath sent me." In
these words Christ acknowledges his inability to
accomplish anything of himself. How much less
may we accomplish in the work of God if we
lean to our own understanding or qualifications.
In 2 001'. 3: 5, we read: "Not that we are
sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of
ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God." The
Syriac renders sufficiency, effeciency, and the
Emphatic Diaglott, making it still plainer, r~ads,
"Not that we are qualified of ourselves, but our
qualification is of God, who hath qualirled us to
be servants of a new coven&'nt."
'When we cease to depend on God we cease to
do his will. "Then we cease to do his will we
cease to depend 011 him. Jesus with all boldn~ss
could say his judgment was just, because he
sought not his own will, but the will of God.
~nd he knew he could do all things in God's
will, which was all he cared to do. So we, with
all boldness, can move out when we know we
have God's will, and do all things through him
that strengtheneth us. Phil. 4: 13. As long as
we are wholly dependent' on God, seeking only'
his will, we may feel capable (through Christ),
of doing a.nd accomplishing a.ll things, never
fearing fr.ilUJ~es.
