Services Sunday, May 31st, Sun day school 9:45 a. m. As this will be the fifth Sunday there will be no church services. Epworth League at 6:15 p. m. Prayer meeting was well attend ed and we heard a splendid message from Rev. E. B. Edwards on "The sources of Spiritual Power." He said many things that we who are Christians cannot deny. Especially that church members should upboM the church by prayer, attendance and giving. He stressed too, the ef fects of family altars in the homes. Mr. Edwards is a promising young preacher. His work this year is at Elk Park . Sunday school is being well at tended. We regret that the teachers will leave us this week as their at tendance and influence are an addi tion to our church. Church service Sunday night was very well attended. Our pastor brought us a fine message from Gal. 6:7, "Be rot deceived, God is not mocked; for whatsoever a man sow eth, that shall he also reap."

It may reveal weaknesses and Bend us to our knees that we may store up spiritual strength for fu ture contests. Again it gives us sympathy for others, who under tem ptation have fallen, so that we may tell them about the grace of God. Certain tkinds of temptation may I bring encouragement, by showing that we have grown until things which once tried, tempted and trip ped us, no longer have power over us. Trials of other kinds may de velop muscles for our spiritual' na ture as muscular exercises does for our . physicial strength. Temptations should remind us con stantly that without Christ we can not be victorious. Temptation is God's way of developing Christian character so that it may better re flect Him. Temptations of life are to be considered as God's way of showing us our weaknesses, for only as we are tried may we know how weak we are. Trials come to us all. Temptation is not so great or strong but we may be assured of victory over it. "God will not permit us to be tempted beyond our strength." "With every temptation He will make a way of escape so that we may be able to bear it." Our Heavenly Father permits trials to come into our life only that they may develop christian character. Temptations reveal the love of the Heavenly Father for us. He is ever ready to impart to us His strength through His Holy Spirit so that trials may be vanquished. We must know that trials endured give us happiness. Every experience of tem ptation endured will make our crown brighter. The crown of life belongs to the tempted man who overcomes Little Virginia Blanton was the through His Grace. James says.
