This evening Reddy left the Old Pasture where his home was and had gone down on the Gresn Meadows to hunt for mice.

JOHN R. GUNN. “And it came to pass after a while that the brook dried up.’—I Kings, xvii.7. | ‘HIS was tne prcok Cherith. At the beginning of his minuistry the prophet Elijah lived for a while beside | tais brook, drank of its water, and was | there fed by the ravens. Its lo- | cation was zn ol re place some- | where along the Jordan. It was | by divine direction’ that Elijah went there. For a time it was necessary that he should hide himself |from the wicked Ahab, who then | reigned in Israel. He needed also this | opportunity for quiet and meditation, a8 a preparation for the strenuous days that were to follow. Here he was cut off from all sources of human supply and was fed by the ravens, thus being taught to depend wholly upon God and to trust Him for everything. “But it came to pass after a while | that the brook dried up. What did this mean? Did it mean that God had forgotten His servant? The ravens continued to bring him food every morning, but was he to stay there and die from thirst? The drying up of the brook was the signal that the time had come for Elijah to move on. The same God who sent the ravens caused the brook to dry up. The same God who ordered him to Cherith was now about to order him elsewhere. “Arise, get thee to Zarephath.” The quiet and peaceful days at Cherith were over, and he was now to be transplanted into other scenes. ny of us know ‘ Cheriths dry up what it is to hzve We know what it cex the drying of brooks—brooks we have long dwelt in ght. Perhaps some of going through this ex- some, even as they read lines, will realize that they sit by o drying brock—the drying brook of friendship, or the drying brook of health, or the drying brook of material resources. Many in these days of de- pression have seen the brook of finances and business dry up before their eyes It may be that these lines will come to | some preacher who sits by the drying | brook of popularity, ebbing away as |from John the Baptist. One of the hardest experiences that ever comes to us_Is to sit beside a drying brook. Why does God permit the brook to dry up? Often, as in the case of | Elijah, the reason is that He wants to Temove us to some other sphere of edu- cation or se Sometimes the rea- son is to drain us of self, that He may fill us with more of His own likeness. And always He has in view the object of turning us from our failing Cheriths to our unfai .
