At the morning service the Rev.
R. C. Fling, pastor, read Isaiah 55,

turn unto the Lord, and He will
have mercy upon him: and to our
God, for He will abundantly par-
don.” The pastor asked “why seek
the Lord?” giving three reasons, to
quench thirst, to satisfy hunger of
■soul, and to care for our destitu-
tion and poverty of soul, that it is
easier for a child to believe and
accept Christ than for older peo-
ple who havegone farther in sin. '
Asking the question, “How seek
the Lord?” the pastor said first
