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. > Pure bred pigs are being pur* chased for breeding purpose* by 4-H club boys and adults of Beau fort County in an effort, to "im prove the quality of hogs sold on ^tbe cooperative *g?et.
