Pelzer, 3. C. “Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you.” James 4:8. “It is good for me to draw near to Obd.” Ps. 73:28. Here we have an exhortation and a consolation for discouraged and distracted people. James believed in practial religion. He wasted no time on theories. He knew that drawing near to God would bring results. In an evil hour the Psalmist was tempt ed to renounce his faith. But after going into the house of the Lord he understood that it was not in vain to live according to the will of God. The tonic that cured David will help us too. God is never far off from his children. But many times we fail to realize His nearness because of neglect, self-will, unholy thoughts, and sinful indulgences. Improper in dulgence is a waste pipe by which we let life run into the gutter. The heart that harbors sin cannot get in close touch with God, for sin is an insulator. Our prayer should be, “God, make me clean.” The sin of jealousy, gossip, and unkind critic ism are great hindrances to our spiritual lives. (Ps.l5:3.) An unfor giving spirit keeps us from being in full fellowship with God. Failing to do what God would have us do is sin of omission. “To him that know- eth to do good and doeth it not to him it is sin;’ “Nothing between my soul and the Saviour, So that his blessed face may be seen.” What are some of the things that help us realize the nearness of God ? For one thing, the Bible, the guide book from earth to heaven. The more we make this book a part of our lives, the nearer we live to God. We are not only to read the Bible but to take time for meditation on it. Meditation is to the soul what diges tion is to the body.” Through prayer we approach God and commune with Him. If we are too busy to pray we are too busy. We are told to pray without ceasing, remain in a prayerful attitude. \ “Draw me nearer, nearer, blessed Lord.” phurch attendance is another aid. Spiritual declension sets in when it is neglected. Attendance on a spirit ual service cured David of his doubt. Contacts and fellowship with peo ple who have the spirit of Christ is still another aid. The spirit of those who are loving, courageous, loyal, unselfish, and gentle is very helpful. Faithful witnessing for the Lord is still another means. We should not only live the Christian life but we should give vocal expression to it. Many times our hearts have been warmed, and heaven seemed nearer, as we have helped someone to come to Christ, or change his life for the better. What are the results of living near God? One gets more out of life. His life is more vistorious, happy, and useful. Too, nearness to God keeps one constantly ready for death. Paul said, “For, to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain” A dying woman said to her pastor, “They say I am dying. O, how glorious. I was never so happy in all my life.” SEA GOING JEEPS ORDERED BY U. S. ARMY Washington, April 11.—The war department today placed orders with automobile companies for mass pro duction of an undisclosed but large number of “sea-going jeeps.” The amphibian trucks, which will be built upon the standard chassis of the quarter ton vehicle popularly known in the army at the “jeep” will be capable of a speed ranging from ten to sixty miles per hour. To speed up production, Brigadier General J. L. Frink, director of mo tor transport, placed the orders by long distance telephone. Names of the companies were not disclosed. Army officials said that the im proved version of the tiny truck “is more fabulous in its performance than its land counterpart..” “It does everything the jeep does on land and can duplicate it in the water,” an army announcement said. “It will go thru swamps, jungle un dergrowth, or ride the ocean waves with the same ease that it travels upon land.” Speed of the machine on water is said to be approximately ten miles per hour, while on land it can travel at least sixty miles per hour. Army officials said that the mo tor transport division has been work ing since the spring of 1941 on the development of this land and water truck. Engineering problems were solved after months of secret tests. GO TO WORK OR ELSE! Anderson, April 11.—It’s “go to work or go to jail” henceforth for the brethren of the lethargic per suasion in Anderson. Mayor William C. Johnston said today after a conference with Police Chief W.
