Not a smile is lost-nothing is hid from their eyes. In him they ljve and move and have their being. Spiritually minded take walks through the fields of heaven; they talk with Goa and listen to his secrets, whic.h untrained ears can not hear; they see his movements and behold him everywhere .. Hecun not hide himself from those who hold his hand and ,valk close by his side .. T f he should hide himself it will be because we have fallen one step' behind; and he would have us corne closer. If he· hides from you go seek for him and he will he found of you. Inthe tenth psalm David asks, "Why standest thou 'afar off, 0 Lord ~ Why hic1est thou thy~ self in times of trouble ~" Then he complains of the outrage of the wicked. In verse 12 he begins to pray. In verse 16 he has a vision of God, and then exclaims in Psa. 11: 1, "In the Lord put I my trust; how say ye any' soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain ~" Do not despair when God hides from you, but seek for him, and seek until you find him. . o.

much abcut God. ,'\Thy men kno,\v so little of
God h~ because they do not lool( for him. The

There are maDy l:illc1en Sfcret t.hings jn God.
Se:;r<~t th:ngs belong to him. But David, in
