Signs of the Times

Charles William Kerr in Presbyterian Life Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

In the first World War, Donald Hankey, an Englishman, thought he had discovered a new way of worship. In the darkness as he lay wounded in no man's land there came to his mind this text: "The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms." As he repeated these words over and over, a peaceful quietness came into his soul.

Donald Hankey was not the first one who learned to worship God in quietness. In Psalm 46:10 are these words, "Be still, and know that I am God." The same thought is expressed in Isaiah 30:7, "Their strength is to sit still."
