Ambition is strong in some
people. They have the unique ability
to define their goals in life and they
are able to channel their skills and
energy in order to realize these ambi
tions.
Os course, each of us has our own
individual goals all different in
proportion and nature. And, each re
quires a different amount of energy to
be realized. If we fail, we should exert
more energy! For this ability to keep

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
N
FAITH AND FAMILIES ON THE MOVE
International Sunday School Lesson for May 2, 1976
Scripture: Hebrews 11:1, 8-16
By Mrs. Jesse Waller
As adults, many of us are permitted to look back across
quite an expanse of years. We have learned that we can be
sure of one thing, and that is change. This is the reason it
is so necessary that our faith in God is sure, because He is
the same yesterday, today and forever. Our ideas of Him may
change, because of spiritual growth, or lack of it, but He
remains aconstant friend.
Abraham found this to betrue, when he was called of God,
to go to a land that he knew not. He started his journey, with
out knowing where he would finally settle. The material
blessings such as cattle, lands and descendants were transi
tory, only reminding them of the complete blessing which
awaited them in some fiiture time.
When we think of a family on the move, we think of a
family with special needs. One of the first things we should
do for a new neighbor is to invite them to church. There they
can meet friends, and find activities, and share a faith, which
will fill the loneliness and emptiness left by their move to a
strange place. People always bring their furniture and earthly
possessions with them, they change their bank account, but
how about their church affiliation? This is sometimes one of
the last things attended to, if at all.
Moving has some positives also. As a minister’s wife, I
think of all the wonderful people I would never have known
existed, had we not moved every four or five years. Always,
it’s a traumatic experience to leave dear friends, however we
have fpund some very wonderful friends at our nfew assign
ment. No one ever takes another’s place, but our hearts are
enlarged to love and care for them all.
Many times families move purely for better salaries, or to
move up the economic ladder. At times like this, we should
be prayerful, seeking God’s way, and not our own. There is
stress and trauma sometimes in a new atmosphere. Children
feel the tension of parents. On the positive side, it brings a
family closer together, in a strange situation, before friend
ships are formed, and each starts going his separate way.
Security is very important to children, and it makes them
happy to have their mother and daddy around more.
One minister’s son said, “home will always be where you
and daddy are, mother.” This we can say of our heavenly
home, it is where our Heavenly Father whits. By faith we
can see it afar.
It seems that in almost every city, the majority of the pop
ulation is from somewhere else. This is characteristic of the
times in which we live. May we pray for the faith of Abraham,
and acquire his attitude. As long as-God leads, and is in this
place, we are willing to make our home and serve until He
bids ua depart
Closing thought. “We seek a city whose builder and maker
is God.”

trying in the face of great odds ...
can lead eventually to success.
To one degree or anotherthen, all
of us are constantly using up our indi
vidual energy supplies. To tackle the
fresh challenges and problems of
each tomorrow, we need a depend
able source of unfailing power. Such
continuous power is always available
to you within the supporting bonds of
the Church.
