Serving With What \Ve Have.
Lesson for Sunday, March ti.
Mark 6:1-13.
(.?olden Text : Acts 3:6.
Our lesson tells us thilt the peo
ple were offended at Jesus be
cause lie seemed to be an arrog
ant upstart. "Where did he get
all this wisdom and miraculous
power?" they asked. "Is not this
the carpenter. Mary's son?" Yes.
he was but a humble carpenter,
the son of a lowly peasant; girl.
But "blessed are the meek, for
they shall inherit the earth."
Think of the kind of home Jesus
knew in those early,- unknown
'years. Bvery morning, as he
awoke, he looked upon white
washed walls of rough stones. The
windows were small and high up,
and the broad wooden door stood
open all day. There was but one
room. The well-swept floor was
made of beaten earth, and food
was stored in tight-woven baskets
hung from the cpiling to protect
it from rats. There were no chairs
the family, at meal time, sitting
on the floor about a low wooden
table. Water jars were kept near
the door.
We must- never forget' that our
Lord was nurtured in a poor
man's home where the pinch of
poverty was felt. He knew the
value of a penny. At times he
must have been hungry. And there
is great significance in the fact
that for about 20 years he work
ed in a carpenter's shop. No
doubt he enjoyed t'he practical
usefulness of his trade. He rejoic
ed in the tangible fruit of his
craftsmanship. And we can see a
connection between his skill with
prop, joist and beam and the
direct, immediate accent of his
teaching. That sure grasp of his
for foundations is, in a measure,
itihe outcome of long hours spent
at his father's bench.
Most of us, like Jesus, belong
to the rank and file. Our financial
and social standing is not that
most coveted. But what of it?
Like our Master we can use our
simple gifts for the glory of our
God. >
