eart to eart mong t A BRIEF MEDITATION "Know, that the Lord thy God, He i God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love Him and keep His commandments, a thousand genera– tions." (Deut: 7:9) 'Forever, 0 Lord, Thy Word is <;ett led in Heaven. Thy faithfulne i unto all generations. Thy Word is true from the beginning." "God i not a man, that He hould lie; neither the on of man, that He should re– pent. H ath He said, and shall He not do it? Or hath He spoken, and hall H e not make it good?' ( um. 23: 19) ' 'All the promises of God in Him are yea, and in Him Amen, t1nto the glory of God.' (2 Cor. 1 :20) "Whereby are given unto us ex– ceedi ng great and precious promi e . (2 Pet. 1 :4)." Time is quickly pass ing to become yesterday. This is already eptember! Things are beginning to 'hum." Many are picking up where they left off some time ago, while other5 are breaking into the complete– }y new routine. Pl ans are in opera– tion. There is harvesting and ingather– i ngs of the bounties in fields and orchards. The schedule of teaching and learning is now the daily routine. In this process may all of us (inside ,tnd outside of the study balls), mem– or 1.Le and remember the few of God's precious promises listed above, to– gether with other portions of the blessed Word of God.
