Organ of The Norih Carolina Conference. SIXTY-FOURTH YEAR, f J tmaa RALEIGH, N. C, JANUARY 9, 1919 XUMIJKK 4H. The Holy Life. FIND "HIM," NOT "IT." "I have been reading about holiness ," said one to me the other day ; " I wish I could find it" "Find it?" I said, "you mean find Him. Holiness is in Jesus, 'As many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God.'" A week later my friend came to me with a radiant face: "I have found it in Him." We think and talk of holiness as if it were getting into the King's garden, climbing over a wall by a tremendous effort, or getting in as a great favor and plucking a flower which we wear in its fragrance for a day, then keep it pressed and treasured, a faded remembrance of the King's grace. No; holiness is ours only when we open the door of our heart unto the King, that He Him self may come in and make this bare place the garden of the Lord, a very paradise wherein He may walk and talk with His child. Mark Guy Pears.
