' There are high moments In life when we can see the fa r reach of righteousness. And there is many a dark hour when doubt and unfaith s.ttle down all around us. Indeed our moments of vision arc comparatively few, Day after day all we can do is to keep the revelations of those moments in our memory and plod on through the fog and obscurity, trusting more te faith loan to sight, , i We cannot abide oft the peaks.* Most of our journey is through the valley. The merchant a t his desk must keep in mind his larger plans even whan details would deny them. The sailor must go on dea < reckoning when, there are iio atari* by which he can set his course. But he knows the stars are still there. Even in 'love we come all too rarely to the mountains of trans­ figuration and most oi the time we must trudge grimly forward with hope, believing what we have once seen and, hoping fo rV hat we shall see again., , Underneath tho crowding evidences of the power of evil every man must believe in those eternal and fa r more potent cosmic laws of good. Did you once glimpse a great and beautiful love burning like a ahekinah? However gross may be the present darkness you must believe that the fire still burins. Tho track runs .on. The soul that will not go forward until he can see every step cf the way to the end will advance but little, Most of the time we must be stepping out into thedark.
