Approximately 360 boys and girls in the 4th, 6th, and 6th grades in Madison County enrolled I in the Science Series and paid for the manual which has the u?g9t I ed experiments. Read Ephesians 4:14-23 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. (Philippians 4:23, RSV) Many, many times I have turn ed to this benediction and found it to be a source of comfort and strength. It is a characteristic prayer wjth which the apostle Paul closes his Epistles. Whenever 1 experience some stress or strain, disappointment or frustration, sickness or affliction; whatever it may be that causes nry spirit to sink, I turn to these1 words and repeat them over anjd over to mayseJf. I try to person alize them the more by saying;: The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ is with my spirit." , When used in this way I find these words amazingly strengthen ing. They bring' Christ close with 1 TIGHT REIN A man must learn to bridle his tongue if he expects to travel in double harness. all His sustaining and enabling grace. They bring the light and guidance of the Holy Spirit to lift my spirit again. Prayer: Our Heavenly Father, we look to Thee with grateful hearts for all Thy mercies in Christ our Lord for His won drous light, salvation, and strength. Help us to trust completely in Thee, and believe that in Christ we can do the Father's will and overcome the world. In His bless ed name. Amen.
