TOWN HALL (Entrance Mercer Street), TO-llOitltOW (SUNDAY) (D.V.), at 3 o'clouk. WHAT IS GOD DOING IN THESE TEKIUBLE YEARS? fjiHE whirl of life at tho present moment X seems almost too much for men's comprehension and lor their endurance. Tho, times are out of joint. The present is a Umsing chaos, tho futuro a. blurred haze. Let us cast our thoughts back/to tho time ■when Jeremiah asked himself th* same question we have propounded to ourselves. Tho circumstancos' of his timo wero as appalling aa those that now confront us. Babylon was as ambitious, cruel and unscrupulous as Germany. Judah was inpro helpless than Belgium. Is God doing nothing? Can He do nothing? Jeremiah found lits message from Ood waiting for him down at the workshop of Iho potter. Life is a times like the ceasclass whirr of a. machine; man feels himself then as helpless as the clay. Yet out of it the poltor moulds a vessel for use and honour. God does tho samo for men and nations. He is doing His work, and it is on theeo relentless, inexorable wheels that He does it. Nothing is more noteworthy, at tho present time than tho way in which nations and individuals aro being compelled to things which they ouglit long ago to have done, without, compulsion. Franco voluntarily exiled God; now thousands of hor people are seoking Him because they must. Shall we voluntarily compel Kaieer Alcohol to adbicate in this country, even though the Moderate patriots have recorded their inflexible determination that ho must still rule? Must the Potter compel by the pressure of His thumb? Tne war is not blind anarchy, the government of the universe, has not beou broken down. On tho contrary, it was never morn evident. Ho not let us anger God by recording one "silly' indelible, dctarniinntiun to do ibis or that, wil.hout. asking His all-power-fill aid. or He will turn our counsels into foolishness. The framora of this third anniversary resolution have forgotten the wise proverb: "Hun proposes, but God die. no<"-s,'' and power helonirot.li uulo Rod. "Now. O Lord, Thou art our Father— not a. mere .blind destiny--are tho clay and Thou art our Potter; and wo are nil a, design to be wrought' by. Thy hand."— Isaiah liiv., .8.
