(The International Uniform Lesson on the above topic for Oct. 5 Is Gen, 1:26-28; Ex. 34:4-7; Ps. 103:1-13; Isa. 40:27-31; MaU. 6:24-34; 22:35-38; John 4:24; 14:20-23; Acts 17:24-30; I John 1:1-4, the Golden Text being Matt. 6:9, "Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy name.") GOD OUR Heavenly Father is the subject of today's lesson. We have Him revealed to us in the Old Testament, tn the very first book, that of Genesis, where it is related that "God created man in His own image, in the image of God created He him ; male and female created He them." Then it adds. "And God blessed them," and made them rulers over all the earth and the living crea tures on the earth, and all the herbs and fruits of the earth, i Next we are taken to Moses, . who led the children of Israel out ' of the land of Egypt and to the border of the "land flowing with milk and honey," which he was never to see. The children of : Israel, you will remember, were ' not always grateful to the God who led them forth. They grew weary and frightened in their long wanderings and Sometimes lost their faith in God. Then they built images and worshiped them. Moses was very angry with them several times, and on one such occasion, when he had been on Mt Sinai conversing with God, he broke the tablets of stone on which were written the ten com mandments, but he was ordered to make new ones. So he made two others like the first, and early 1 one morning he took them up into the mountain, as he had been told, "and the Lord descended in a cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the Lord." Lord Is Merciful and Gracious The Lord proclaimed himself "merciful and gracious, long sux- ferlng, and abundant in goodness . and truth. - This Lord who talked with Moses on the Mount, is extolled in Psalm 103, which Is part of our lesson. It is supposed it was writ' ten bv David. "Bless the Lord, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless His holv name. "Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forzet not all His benefits." Then the Dsalmist lists the ben efits he has received from God, nrfinr in the 13th verse with Like as a father pitieth his chll dren. so the Lord pitieth them lamer that fear Him." Like a that is a lovely thought of God Distributed bv Kin Festures SmdlcaU. Iae. Not as a judge, But as a father that is sorry to see his children suffer, even If It be through their own misconduct, and who pities and forgives them when they call upon Him. Again in the 40tn cnapier oi Isaiah It is written: "Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God. the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fain teth not, neither is weary? . . . He glveth power to them that faint: ana to mem that have no might He Increaseth strength. . . . They that wait upon the Lord shall renew tneir strength; they shall mount up ; with wings as eagles: they shall ! run, and not be weary; ana uiey shall walk, and not faint." Many Call on God How many oppressed people in our world today, are calling upon God their Father, and being re newed in the midst of their desolation? Now our lesson takes us to the New Testament, to the words of Jesus, who further assures us of our Father'a love and watchful ness over us. Why do we fret about what we should wear? Consider the lilies of the field," He tells His disciples, "how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you. That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. - "Wherefore, if God so ciotne tne grass of the field, which to day Is, and to morrow is cast Into the oven, shall -He not much more clothe you. O ye of little faith." The same is true of what we shall eat and what drink. "Tour Heavenly Father knoweth ye have need of these things," Jesus as sures us. -Seek ye first the king dom of God and His righteous ness." That is the most impor tant thing in life, not money or things that it can buy, but "the Kingdom of God and His right eousness." And finally, which is all the space we have, let us see what Jesus considered the great est commandments of all for his followers. When a Pharisee, seek ing to trap Him, asked Him, "Master, which is the great com mandment in the law?" He an swered: "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with aU they heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy. mind. This is the first and grsat commandment. "And the second is like unto it. Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." It sounds simple, doesn't It, to have faith in our Father, God, t love Him with all our hearts, and to love our neighbors as we do ourselves? .
