Trinity

MINNY M. H. AYERS

Life ! infinite, divine, too wonderful for human thought to grasp—Life, evermore the source of all,And bringing all eternal good!Life! holy pow'r enabling us to riseAnd reach from out the lies of sense to findAnd claim our ownAt-one-ment with our God,A unity that knows no taint of flesh.
Poem

The demand for church

I like to think of each church that grows up in a community as that community's answered prayer for the presence of the saving Christ—the message of God's love for humanity.

A Hymn

FLORENCE GILMAN HART

Sweet violets springing into birth,With timely showers that bathe the earth;The birds all caroling in songTheir early praises, loud and long,In purest melody—Should they not our devotion wake,And from each heart its burden take;Bring joy and comfort to abideWhere selfishness is prone to hide,Breaking Life's harmony?
Poem

If God is Really God to Me

LAURA SHELLEY ALLEN

If God is really God to me,There is no binding pain;For His great presence, realized,Brings sweetest peace again.
Poem
