There are timer for all of us when we are faced with changing circumstances. And. if we keep our faith centered in God and in i His power, we are able to make these necessary changes with calmness and with courage. We must realize always that God is with us wherever we go. In j a strange city, in a new job, in any unfamiliar situation In which we may find ourselves, God Is with us. and we must know that He loves us constantly and is watching over us always We cannot fear change if wt remember that God's law is active in all circumstances and in all conditions, We work with God's law by believing in it. by looking past and beyond appearances, and by keeping faith with God.

It 1s doubtful whether the Psalmist understood the basis up on which a Just God through thp ages, has so graciously forgiven sins, but this has since been ex plained In the epistles of Paul There we read "Ood for Christ's sage hath forgiven you" fEph. 4:32».
