Text of thq Lesson, Ps. xxiii?Memory
Versos, the Whole Psalm?Golden
Text, Po. xxiii, 1?Commentary Pre
pares by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
[Copyright, 1903, by American Press Association.]
How beautiful the description of
David In II Sam. xxiii, 1, "David the
son of Jesse, the man who was raised
up on high, the anointed of the God of
Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Is
rael,"' and" notice In verse 2 from
whence he received his messages, "The
spirit of the Lord spake by me, and
His word was in my tongue." The
tongue and the pen were David's, but
the messages were the Lord's by His
spirit. See also Ex. iv, 12; Jer. L 7-?;
Ezek. Iii, 10, 11; John xil, 4% and note
how the prophets and eveu our Lord
Himself received their messages from
God the Father. The spirit of Christ
in the prophets had mainly a twofold
theme, the suffering of Christ and the
glory that should follow (1 Pet L 11;,
and in no psalm are these more fully
set forth than in Ps. xxlL written as
if by an eyewitness und giving some of
the very words He uttered on the cross
(verse 1), yet pointing on to His resur
rection kingdom and glory, saying,
"The kingdom is, the Lord's, und He is
the governor amoug th<> nations"
(verse 2S).
The psalm for today seems to refer
to the millennial glory of Israel and
yet was the personal experience of
David and may be that of each Indi
vidual believer. David knew well the
life of a shepherd and what it meant
to care kindly for the sheep, und even
to put his life in danger for them, as
when he delivered one of his lambs
from a lion and a bear and slew them
both (I Sam. xvll, 34-3G). As he thought
of his care of his flock he could look
up to the livlug God, the Lord of hosts,
and say, "Jehovah is my shepherd,"
and as he knew that his sheep were
safe and well cared for under his
watchful care, so he was sure that he
was even better cared for by his shep
herd, the stone of Israel (Gen. xllx. 24;
Ps. lxxx, 1). Hear the Lord's own
words in this connection In John x, 11:
"I am the good shepherd. The good
shepherd glveth his iife for the sheep."
Think of Him also as great shepherd
living in us and working in us to will
and to do of His good pleasure (Heb.
xiii, 20, 21). Then see (I Pet. v, 1-4)
where as the chief shepherd He will
reward those who for Him feed His
flock. All the blessedness comes from
being able to say My Shepherd.
We may know all the facts about
Him and believe all that He says He
is and bus done and will do, but if
there is no personal appropriation there
is no benefit. The soul must be able to
say My Redeemer, My Lord, My Shep
herd. Then we can rest in Rom. vlil
32, and know of u surety that we shall
not waut, for there is no want to
them that fear Him and live uprightly
before Ulm (Ps. xxxiv, 9, 10; lxxxiv,
11). Lying down Is restful, and green
pastures speak of satisfaction: satisfied
and restful. He sutisneth.the hungry
soul. There Is such a thing us abiding
satisfied (Prov. xlx, 23). und yet there
is a satisfaction that will be only when
vae awake In Ills likeness (Ps. xvii,
15). In Him dwelleth all the fullness
of the Godhead (Col. I. 19; 11, 9). und if
we are not filled full In Him the diffi
culty Is with us and not with Him.
Not only rest and fullness, but quiet
ness of soul, is ours also in Him (verse
2, margin). He is "The Lord our
Righteousness" (Jer. xxiii, (1). and the
work of righteousness is peace, and
the service of righteousness Is quiet
ness and assurance forever. When
He glveth quietness, who then can
make trouble? (Isa. xxxil 17; Job
xxxlv, 29.) Like sheep we are prone
to wander, and straying sheep must
be sought, for they do not return ot
their own accord; therefore David said:
"I have gone astray like a lost sheep.
Seek thy servant" (Ps. cxix. 17G).
His sheep can never perish, but may
lose the joy of salvation; hence the
prayer, "Restore unto me the Joy of
Thy salvation" (John x. 28; Ps. 11, 12).
Being righteousness Itself, He can lead
only In paths of the same, and this He
does, as He does all else, not for our
sakes, but for Ills Name's sake (verse
3; I John II. 12; Ezek. xxxvl, 22). Let
us say: "Lord. I place my hand in !
Thine and will not murmur nor repine.
Content whatever lot I see, since 'tis
my God thut leadeth me." Our whole
life here Is lived In the shadow of
death, for it is always true as David
said elsewhere. 'There Is but a step be
tween me and death" (I Sam. xx. 3).
But He is with us every day nud all
the way, nud nothing can touch us
unless He permit it, and If He allows
death to touch us It will be a gain, a
very far better "absent from the body,
present with the Lord."
A table In the presence of his enemies
was many a time David'j experience
while fleeing from Saul and Absalom.
It will be Israel's In millennial days.
It will be ours as far as we need it. and
It Is for God's glory. Our future as be
lievers Is all told In verse 0. God is
love, and love is kind, and therefore
He cannot permit anything that Is not
loving kindness as He sees It. however
It may look to us. Here we may dwell
In Him and He In us (John xlv, 23; xvli.
23; II Cor. vi. 10-18), and by and by it
will be for every child of God "for
ever with the Lord," and with Him on
His throne (I Theas, lv, 17; Rev. ill.
21). May we ever heur His voice as In
Isa. xllii. L 2: xlvlll. 17; John xlv, 27).

CONFEDERATE SHAFT
WiU be Erected at Millen, Ga., in
the Near Future.
A dispatch from Millen, Ga., says
that town is to have a Confederate
monument. The local chapter of thi
Daughters of the Confederacy, who
have been soliciting funds for the
purpose of erecting a 'monument
in honor of the Southern heroes,
have met with sufficient encourage
ment to insure the success of the
undertaking, and recently placed an
order for the erection of the monu
ment with the McNeel Marble Com
pany, of Marietta, Ga.
The shaft will be placed In a con
spicuous spot on the courthouse
square. A life size statute of i
Southern soldier in imported Italian
marble will ornament the top of the
monument, the entire height being
about twenty-five feet. The work is
to be commenced soon and is to be
completed in time for the unveiling,
which will take place on June 3rd,
next. ?
BRYAN WILL NOT STAND
In the Way of Some Loyal Supporter
In Nebraska.
Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 6.?Some en
thusiastic Democrats started a boom
for Bryan for United States senator
immediately after the results of the
election became known, showing that
the Democrats had captured a ma
jority of the Nebraska legislature.
When, a bit later, they discovered
that no senator Is to be elected at
the coming election and that an en
tirely new body will be selected be
fore a senator is chosen, the matter
was dropped. Senator Burkett's
term expires March 4, 1911.
Mr. Bryan's closest friends say he
has no ambitions along that line, and
that he would refuse to stand in
the way of loyal supporters who
would logically become candidates
should the Democrats carry the leg
islature two years hence. *
