ENDURANCE
“And so, after he had patiently
endured, he obtained the prom
ise.” Hebrews 6:15.
Abraham was long tried, but he
was richly rewarded. The Lord
tried him by delaying to fulfill
His promise. Satan tried him by
temptation; men tried him by
jealousy, distrust, and opposition;
Sarah tried him by her peevish
ness. But he patiently endured.
He did not doubt God’s veraci
ty, nor limit His power, nor doubt
His. faithfulness, nor grieve His
love; but he bowed to Divine Sov
ereignty, submitted to Infinite
Wisdom, and was silent under de
lays, waiting the Lord’s time. And
so, having patiently endured, he
obtained the promise.
God’s promises cannot fail of
their accomplishment. Patient
waiters cannot be disappointed.
Believing expectation shall be
realized.
Abraham’s conduct condemns a
hasty spirit, reproves a murmur
ing one, commends a patient one,
and encourages quiet submission
to God’s will, and way. Remem
ber Abraham was tried; he pa
tiently waited; he received the
promise, and was satisfied.
Imitate his example, and you
will share the same blessing.

SITKA SPRUCE
This wood grows only on the North Pacific coast. The color
of the heartwood, which blends gradually into the sapwood, varies
from white or light pinkish yellow to pale brown. When planed,
the surface of the wood shows a silky sheen.
Sitka Spruce is tough, even-grained and soft-textured. This
species has so distinguished itself in the specialty field that its
sound value as construction lumber is sometimes overlooked.
Sitka Spruce has rendered worthy service as a home-building
material for many years. It is well manufactured, bright in ap
pearance and light in color. It has the additional characteristic
of combining light weight with strength.
