In the 18th Psalm there is a cluster of experiences: " He took me— He drew me out of many waters— He delivered me from my strong enemy— He brought me forth also into a large place — He delivered me because He delighted in me— He rewarded me— He recom- pensed me— He delivereth me." Listen to further testimonies from him : " He hath dealt bountifully with me." " He hath showed me His marvellous kind- ness." " He heard me and delivered me." " He. inclined unto me." " He brought me up out of an horrible pit." " He hath inclined His ear unto me." " He hath not given me over unto death." " He maketh me to lie down in green pastures, He leadeth me beside the still waters ... in the paths of righteous- ness." " He shall hide me, He shall set me up upon a Rock." A few pages turned over of the Bible, and we find Solomon's words : " He brought me to the banquet- ing house, His banner over me was Love"— and then Isaiah's : " He hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, He hath covered me with the robe of righteous- ness." Has it been thus " I and Thou " between our souls and God 1 Can we say with Mary, " He hath done to me great things"— and with Paul's assurance, " He loved me and gave Himself for me "— and rest ourselves on such words? To- day " The Master is come and calleth for thee " individually. To- day He asks, " What wilt thou that I should do unto thee 1" To- day He stands at the door of each heart and knocks, promising, " If any . . . open the door, I will come in to him, and sup with him, and he with Me." " To- day I must abide at thy house." Even so, Lord— even me— even now. Amen. Now Ready, price One Shilling FIFTEENTH TEAR. MAY'S BRITISH AND IRISH PRESS GUIDE FOR I8B8.
