The Letters 3 JUNE 1930 This experiment which I am trying is the most strenuous discipline which any man ever attempted. I am not succeeding in keeping God in my mind very many hours of the day, and from the point of view of experiment number one, I should have to record a pretty…

The Letters 2 JULY 1930 The newest experiment, and at present the most thrilling, is letting God talk through my own tongue and through my own fingers on the typewriter. I have been letting my tongue talk on Signal Hill behind my house and then have come home and written on the t…

The Letters 22 APRIL 1930 The “experiment” is interesting, although I am not very successful, thus far. The idea of God slips out of my sight for I suppose two-thirds of every day, thus far. This morning I started out fresh, by finding a rich experience of God in the sunrise. The…

The Letters 9 JULY 1930 Never did I so feel the need of a silent typewriter as at this moment, for every stroke clashes with the marvelous silence of the hills tonight. I am still under the spell of that hush and of that sunset. In all my life I have never seen a sight so beautif…

The Letters 1 JUNE 1930 Inwardly this has been a very uneven week. As a whole, my end of the experiment has been failure for most of the week. My physical condition and too many distractions have proven too much for me, and God has not been in the center of my mind for one-fifth …

The Letters 22 JUNE 1930 I have just returned from a walk alone, a walk so wonderful that I feel like reducing it to a universal rule, that all people ought to take a walk every evening all alone where they can talk aloud without being heard by anyone, and that during this entire…

The Letters 15 JUNE 1930 I walk out in the street full of Moros, and if my soul is as full of God as it sometimes is, I see what happens as I look into their eyes and pray for them. No man need try to persuade me that God does not reach them, for I see the thing happen, and now I…

The Letters 14 MAY 1930 Oh, this thing of keeping in constant touch with God, of making Him the object of my thought and the companion of my conversations, is the most amazing thing I ever ran across. It is working. I cannot do it even half of a day—not yet, but I believe I shall…

Drama: Be dressed, ready … (Six people hear those words, but only one of them seems to fully understand their meaning.) Narrator: “Be dressed, ready for service …” said Jesus. But sometimes those words can be misunderstood. Car repair man: I will, but I’ll need to know what job i…
