me tell you what I mean.
Recently, the doctors gave up a
first Christmas, the prophet Isaiah
said that the troubles of the world
never could be alleviated until the
world was led by a just ruler whom
he called ‘‘The Prince of Peace.” For
seven hundred years no such man
appeared, but the world lived in
hope. When Christ did come it was
easy to believe that He was The Sa
vior. Thousands who walked the
streets of Israel saw Him, recognized
miracles as His and put their faith
in the man whose existence and pow
er they could not doubt because they I

I am myself a strong follower of
science. I hold to the practical ex
planation and interpretation of phe-
noena. But now, when science gives
up hope, I still hold hope. I believe,
earth, to remain here only in spirit
and only for those who had faith in
His omnipotence.
And now, almost two thousand
years later, mankind still lives in
hope—hope that He will continue to
penform His miracles for mankind
even if He does not return in body.
In the two thousands years since
“Yes,” they say, “of course, there
is always a chance anything might
happen.”
This “chance” they speak of, this
“anything”—that is God. i
I do not know just who God is and
what His purpose might be. I only
know that there is something beyond
the confinements of scientific verdict

even so and the certain knowledge i
that it can—that is God.
Although it took the illness of
someone beloved to bring this home
| to me, I first had an inkling of this |
I some time ago, once when I was very 1
sick myself.
They thought I had TB. I was in (
1 a ward with TB patients, and they'
; were getting ready to take me to a 1
sanitarium. In those days there'
wasn’t any talk of a permanent cure
—the best you could hope for was
an “arrested development.” If you!
took it easy, you might be able to
last for a few more years.
It was a black future lor a person
used to the active life of a newspa
perman. Yet somehow I never de
spaired. With the cold impersonal
detachment of a journalist I could
not help being fully aware that logi-;
cally the odds were against me, yet
I kept telling myself, “Even so, I am J
going to get well, completely well.i
So what if no one else ever has?
There always can be a first time ”
I didn’t know it, but I was tur»-
ing to God.
! As it developed, tfie trouble with
my lung wasn’t TB. So you might
say that I was saved by a quirk off
1 luck. But I’ve seen men picked up,
from the battlefield for whom all!
hope had been abandoned, defy all;
the laws of medicine and surgery and
remain among the living.
I I’ll admit that waiting for tragedy
to strike is finding God the hard way
and that the finding may hdve been
prompted by desperation. But when
I you find this blessed aolace, which
{ surpasses all understanding, then it
I becomes a solid, serene thing.
It' is wonderful to know that, no
! matter how terribly dreary and
| hopeless the outlook may be, all
; things are possible. It is blessed to!
be told that something tragic is bound
to happen and yet to be able to hold j
out hope that it might not be.
It isn’t a question of kidding your
self. You might lose the first round j
and the second and the third, you
might even lose a few full-scale bat- l
ties—and yet, against all odds and
disappointments, still have that'
flame of hope burning surely and j
steadily inside of you.
I haven t come to grips with death
yet, but I know now that there can
be hope and solace even when it
shows up. There is always the vision,
1 regardless of what science has or
hasn’t proved, of another world, an
other time in space. Science has to
rely on its substance for algebraic
figures and symbols, .but it is enough 1
| if only the hope in you, the God in
you, tells you something.
I know this is odd talk from a de
vout follower oi science, a man who
believes in the concepts and theories
of logically worked-out formulas. I
am still a man of science. Only
wiser.
And like the Three Wise Men from
1 the East, when Christmas comes this
year I will follow the sound of the
church bells, just as they followed
the lights of the Star of Bethlehem,
vJiever relaxing my hope that some
day all people will welcome the
Prince of Heace as the absolute ruler
of mankind.
