"THAT I MAY KNOW HIM.11
This was the cry of Paul; this
is our longing, and the only
reason for our presence in this,
our School.
To know Him means far more
than to know about Him.
To know Hit, here and now,
we must make much of the Book.
"In the volume of the Book it
is written of Me." And yet there
mast; be more than an open Bible,
for even with an open Bible we
may not know Him. The study of
Him is a spiritual exercise, the
caccess of which depends upon our
spiritual condition. If one
cannot see the light, the fault
s in the eyes. If we study the
Bible, and do not see Him, and so
come to know Him, the fault is
our own.
If we would know Him we must
sp()d much time in the very hush
of, the throne room. In the hush
of the desert, on holy ground, He
revealed Himself to Hoses. Here
:-A,zain much depends upon ourselves.
Tne way into His presence is the
1,7 of holiness. Neglected con
ins is because of sin separat-.
ing between us and Him. We must
1,, ch,against sin and neglect.
;..L:ely as our lives are not lived
n prayer and communion we shall
not know Him.
If we would know Him we must
"pay the priceul In a letter from
India came this: "I visited the
leper asylum in Allahabad, and
February lb, iu2i, _No . 6 •
'there saw sights toc awful tc
write about. I met Miss Frances,
of whom you have no doubt heard.
She was a beautiful young Indian
;Christian girl, and was ready tc
be married when she was taken
with the dreaded disease.
The doctor was called, and she
was sent with her brother to the
hospital in Allahabad. When she
centered the hospital she looked
'around her, and her heart alriost
failed,--- as my heart failed
the first time I saw a leper.
She turned, put her arms about
her brother's neck, and said,
'Oh, take me away from here. I
cannot stay in such a place.'
Others present felt that she
would lose her mind. Then one
of the missionaries came to her
and said-i,'Miss Franbes, you
know about the Lord Jesus., but
the other lepers do not know
about our Christ. Will you not
tell them the sweet story?' She
stayed and took up her task in
the name of the Lord, and it has
been her privilege to lead more
than a hundred souls to Christ.
As I spoke to her that day I was
conscious of standing in the
presence of one who knew her
Lord as few people know Him. Her.
face was radiant because of the
inner light which oould not be
hid. She said, 'I thank God
every day for making me a leper,
and through my sufferings I kno\/
a little of what Jesus suffered
in Gethsemane.'" It's worth the
price.
