Weds C. W. Wier, Jr.
Miss Gloria McGowan, daughter

well Wardlaw Wier, Jr., son of Mr.
and Mrs. C. W. Wier, in an impress
ive ceremony Tuesday afternoon,

Mrs. McGowan, mother of the

Mrs. Wier, mother of the bride
groom, wore navy iwth white. Both
God and he maintained his inno
cence against the accusations of his
three friends that he had sinned
and brought all his sufferings upon
himself. But he presumed to ques
tion God’s ways in dealing with him.
The suffe/ring man had longed to
know God and to solve the riddle of
his misfortunes. We learn today how
God spoke to Job out of a whirl
wind and rebuked him for his pre
sumption. Where was Job when the
foundations of the earth were laid?
He had evidently come on the stage
too late to criticize the works of cre
ation.
Then God spoke of the mysteries
of the created world which reveal j
His majesty and glory in nature.
Was Job responsible for any of the I
wonders and beauties about him—!
could he explain and direct the vast
forces of nature? And the mortal
man was further hushed and con
founded by the voice that spoke out
of the whirlwind.
It is not for man to question the
ways of God. And it is foolish and
indefensible for him to question
those ways, as a cloak for his own
sins. It would be folly for a tiny
ant, crawling over the rails of a
great system, to question the ways
and the right of an engineer to run
a locomotive down the track. It
should be our greatest concern to
learn the ways of God and to bring
our lives into conformity with His
will. Trust God’s wisdom and try to
live by its gracious provisions for
you.
