He knew himself secure whatever life might bring,
and even though life itself should end. He was inwardly in a state of
profound peace and spiritual freedom, and that is why all the gracious
powers of his humanity were able to find free and beautiful expression.
So it must be with all of us. We find our real life, and we become
masters or mistresses in life only when we have given in and allowed
the love of God to direct and sustain us. For the particular problem
dealt with in this chapter and for all other painful and pressing
problems of life, the way of victory is to seek and find the life that
is hid with Christ in God.

No doubt at this point two questions will arise in the minds of some.
Firstly, some will want to say, "All that is very well for those who
are religious, but how about the people who are not religious?" I have
no answer to that question, because I believe there is none. Religion
is not a sort of hobby that just seems to suit certain peculiar people.
It is a prime necessity for all of us.
