Instruction, trainfaif and eultoio,
•ofnetimet calli»C for tha touch of
Judgment or punishment, that the
IfffOAn may be rightly learned—this
is the meaning of discipline.
It is a good w(«d and speaks at
that which is much needed in a dis>
ordered and dissolute world.
Our lesaon telle of God's plan for
die discipline of the people of Is
rael in prepara^ibn for their entry
into the Promtecd Land, lliey wifre
not ready when God first brought
them up to it, but thrbugh hard uid
trying experiences they learned.
They did not believe G^ so they
had to learn the hard way.
One wonders whether we will be
wiser th*n they. America is now in
the awful graap of a postwar wave
af careteas Uving, of moral disinta-
gration and of awful diaslpation. Al
coholic li<piora flow in an isa-
eontroUed flood o^ destmetifln.
Wbtie ia the moral fiber that mada
America great?
L Thare la a Lfaadt ta Gai*a
Patiensa (w. 11, 12).
The background of our laaaon ia
the report of tha who'^wata
aant up into tha land. All agread
tiiat it was a good land, but 10 of
tham were afraid of ita inbahitanta.
Two of tiham, Joahua and CaM>,
urged the pao^ to taka God at Ua
word and go op to poaaeas toa land.
Bat toa paopia robdtod and wantad
to turn ba^ to tha flaahpota of
Egypt
G^ had baen patient wiUi tha
.people, bat tha tima had

fasti
Thera Is a limit to God’a patianct
with a ainful paopia. It ia almost
heartbrcakittf to think of tha
sibility that Amarlca may all too

Mosea steppad Into tha breach
and made a mighty and moving plan
for his pc<^de. Re knew toa powar
of interoMsIoa and caHad on God
for mercy upon tiie pecqde. Bla
pointed out that tha bo^ of tha
Lord was involved to bringing His
people into the land. He recognised
toe guilt of the older membm of
toe nation but asked for another
chance for the children. He based
his prayer on the known (pialitiea
of God, hia Justice and, above all,
his mercy.
Does not this strongly suggest the
importance of Christian people
making their influence count to tha
solution of social problemaT Pray-,
er accomplishaa more than
world has ever conceived to be pos
sible. Praying people count with
God, and bwica they count to the af
fairs of men.
More Christian pe<qte ought to
be deeply conccxned about our
country's liquor problem, and aQ
