Ready for a Camel Ride

Listen from:
The people in our picture think no more of riding on the back of the camel than we would of riding a horse; but to those who are not used to the awkward movements of the camel, such a ride is exciting. When the camel would rise from his knees we should feel that we were surely falling off.
The camel has been fitted in a wonderful way for the dry countries where he lives. God has been good to man in priding him just such animals as he needs in the various parts of the world.
It is a grand thing to recognize God’s land in everything created. How varied are the needs and conditions of the different peoples of the world, and how wonderfully has He met all these needs. But it is not enough merely to own God’s power in creation, and His goodness to mankind. Even the devils believe there is a God,—
“Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well; the devils also believe and tremble!” James 2:1919Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. (James 2:19).
Thus if you believe that there is a God, but are a stranger to His grace, you are lost. It is only as you know His love to you in giving Jesus as your own Saour, that you can be saved.
“IN THIS WAS MANIFESTED THE LOVE OF GOD TOWARD US, BECAUSE THAT GOD SENT HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON INTO THE WORLD, THAT WE MIGHT LIVE THROUGH HIM.” 1 John 4:99In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. (1 John 4:9).
