I Will Tune My Ear to Heaven 

     And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the
way, walk ye in it, when ye shall turn to the right hand, and when ye
shall turn to the left. Isa. 30:21  

     Many narratives of the Inspired Word are given to teach us that the
human family is the object of the special care of God and heavenly
beings. Man is not left to become the sport of Satan's temptations. All
heaven is actively engaged in the work of communicating light to the
inhabitants of the world, that they may not be left in the darkness of
midnight without spiritual guidance. An Eye that never slumbers or
sleeps is guarding the camp of Israel. Ten thousand times ten thousand
and thousands of thousands of angels are ministering to the needs of the
children of men. Voices inspired by God are crying, This is the way,
walk ye in it.  

     We can avoid seeing many of the evils that are multiplying so fast
in these last days. We can avoid hearing about much of the wickedness
and crime that exist.  

     To the active minds of children and youth, the scenes pictured in
imaginary revelations of the future are realities. As revolutions are
predicted, and all manner of proceedings described that break down the
barriers of law and self-restraint, many catch the spirit of these
representations. They are led to the commission of crimes even worse, if
possible, than these sensational writers depict. Through such influences
as these society is becoming demoralized. The seeds of lawlessness are
sown broadcast. None need marvel that a harvest of crime is the result.


     Say firmly: ". . . I will close my eyes to frivolous and sinful
things. My ears are the Lord's and I will not listen to the subtle
reasoning of the enemy. My voice shall not in any way be subject to a
will that is not under the influence of the Spirit of God. My body is
the temple of the Holy Spirit, and every power of my being shall be
consecrated to worthy pursuits."
