Adventist Education.” Academy in Apopka, Fla., Participants 0D\ 6287+(51 $GYHQWLVW(GXFDWLRQ 9DQWDJH3RLQW 2IRUD7KRXVDQG 7RQJXHVWR6LQJ While singing with the Southernaires Quartet during my years at Southern, one of my favorite songs declared — O for a thousand tongues to sing, My great Redeemer’s praise, The glories of my God and King, The triumphs of His grace! Often we are full of praise and can hardly contain ourselves. We don’t hold back yet we can’t find enough words and melody to fully express our inner joy. Why do we sing? Why do we praise God? It’s the natural result of being a believer — one who knows that Jesus has saved to the uttermost. Yes, we feel like singing when God helps us find our car keys, or finds us a job when we’re about to go under. Certainly we want to praise God when He’s obvi- ously healed us from a terrible illness or protected us from a close call with a car accident. We praise God when events coincide with deliverance and we know that God has been right there with us. When God comes through we stand a little taller and sing a little louder — “Then Sings My Soul, My Savior God to Thee, How Great Thou Art, How Great Thou Art!” Yet for the believer — one who believes that God can be trusted in all circum- stances, who knows that Jesus through His death and resurrection has conquered the grave, and who has the assurance that a life in Christ is a life of restfulness — to this believer, the wellspring of praise is equally strong and overflowing by faith in the ultimate deliverance from all evil. We praise God in concert with the apostle Paul who emphatically testifies, “I am persuaded that neither death nor life ... can separate Gordon Retzer us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:38-39. For Southern Union the believer, there is praise on our lips no matter the outcome. We know that our President redeemer lives. We know that God has conquered death through Jesus Christ. We know that we are hid in Christ, the Rock of ages. We know that nothing can sepa- rate us from the love of God. Nothing. You may have just experienced a dramatic deliverance, or you, or someone close to you, may have just experienced a terrible non-deliverance. What the believer by faith clings to is that with God, either way, deliverance or non-deliverance, whether life or death, God still loves and God still plans to come and deliver believers from evil, once and for all time. It means that we are not some-times praising, but all-the- time praising. Charles Wesley continues in the third verse of his great hymn, “O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing”: Jesus! The name that charms our fears, That bids our sorrows cease, ‘Tis music in the sinner’s ears, ‘Tis life, and health, and peace. In other words, the believer joyfully sings with Fanny Crosby who lived with non-deliverance from blindness: This is my story, This is my song, Praising my Savior, all the day long. 7 ,',1*60D\ 6287+(51 &RQWHQWV Volume 104, No. 5, May 2010 The Southern Tidings is the Official )($785(6 Publication of the Southern Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists SOUTHERN UNION CONFERENCE 0HPRULDO'ULYH0DLO$GGUHVV P.O.

For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's showroom, and knowing his wealthy father could well afford it, he told him that the sports car was ALL he wanted. As graduation day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautifully wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disap- pointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible with the young man's name embossed in gold. Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, "With all your money, you give me a Bible?" He stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible. Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and wonderful family, but realized his father was very old and very ill. The son thought perhaps he should go to him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed Leslie N.
