Not only did he suffer in-| eet Monday evening, June 10,/ evangelism, audio-visual aids and | tense agony and distress physical- ly, but there were moments of} deep mental depression and tor- | ment. Such a moment was when he cried out, “My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken me?” — | It is natural for men to cleave | to some. sort of security, Perhaps | the most permanent and secure is faith in God, the creator and rul- erof this universe. The loneliness and distress fomenting in the hearts of men can be traced to the ' eleavage of some strong tie, the loss of live savings, the loss of , a job, the loss of friends, the loss of faith in God and man. The fool- ish seek a catharsis through drink | or suicide. | One of the most pathetic scenes we behold is the loneliness of an orphan or an unwanted child. They crave the love and security of a home, friends and parents. Such a child expresses its appre- ciation by cuddling up in strong and loving arms. The stray dog | shows his appreciation of a kind! word by wagging his tail. The whole world would be enriched if we all would practice more love to God and to our fellowman. Christ expressed the mood of many when he lifted his face on Calvary and in his fervent plea in the Garden of Gethsemene. Ella Wheeler Wilcox wrote, “All paths that have been or shall be pass somewhere through Gethsem- ene.” We sometimes. anchor to transient. and. insecure things of life, Our. disappointment when we find them vanish or crumble causes deep concern and despon- dency. We are lonely and seem deserted. It may be only for our good and the wise Christian will thoroughly examine all offers of security and cling only to that which is eternal. An incident occurred recently in a large city. By accident a pe- destrian was pinned under a street car. As the crowd gathered none seemed to know what to do, The police car came and it was found necessary to send to the ear barn for heavy equipment to extricate the victim. Meantime he was crying out hysterically from pain and fright. Finally a stranger crawled under the car, and placing his arms around the victim began to talk to hitn kindly and softly in his ear. The victim calmed down, stopped his shriek- ; ing and his fears disappeared. He smiled and said to the stranger, “Thank you, friend,” We all need friends and their is no better friend than Jesus the Son of;God, He can calm our fears wien, all other, security: fails... Rey.
