No. 2 SHOE RE-BUILDERS 1 door from Rose Pharmacy Hendersortville, N. C. f THE PRAYER CORNER 1 M , AS OUR RELATED LIFE "June, the gens or clan, fixes our thoughts on family life in the broad- j 1 est sense of the words ? whether it is , our own race or the church, which is called the 'family for which our Lord Jesus Christ was contented to be be trayed." The terms of this /elated life are, for us, found in OUR DUTY TO WARDS OUR NEIGHBORS. And who is my neighbor? To ask the question is a condemnation. True neighborliqfess is not common to know where its boundaries run; it cares as little for boundaries a? sun and rain care for the contour lines upon our maps. It seeks not for lim its, but for opportunities. Who is my neighbor? Nearness does not make neighborliness. People may live with | no intervening -wall, and yet not be j neighbors. Only the eyes and spirit 'of the Samaritan make neighborli |ness. Who is my neighbor? 1 do not i; know. JeSbs retorts: But life will! reveal him to you. He is not of one I, class or nation. He is anybody in ; need. You will find him as you h journey. You will come upon him by j chance. He is not of this or that re- 1 ligious allegiance. He is not a sin- 1 ner or a saint. He is not brutish or ' refined. He is a certain man dr wo- . man, any man or woman, needy at j your roadside. This, Jesus replies, |l not in a definition, but an instance. I He gave us Truth embodied in a Tale. Read the Tale of The Good Samari- . tan and you will know. ___ j] The Spirit of the Samaritan does! not come by chance. It is the bes- j towment of God, His best gift to us. Though neighborliness may be sud- 1 denly proved (being waked by crises J on a journey) it is not suddenly I, grown. Heroism in the crucial test I has its source in that habitual read- 1? iness .to the heroic, that courageous '? bent of the soul which is induced by J minor braveries day after day. Only J so does neighborliness become in- * stinctive. Such a quality, and set of J character is eternal life, the God * eriven heritage has been realized. Nor is the Samaritan Spirit to be r :onceived merely as humaneness, or 1 ?s a substitute for religion. In truth e religion in its outworking is neigh- 1 borlinesa, and neighborliness in its final impercations is religion. A re ligion which passes by on the other side is a mummery, not a faith. What part then are we playing In family life, in human life, in church life? We cannot stand aff" isolated units, receiving from it without con tributing towards it; we cannot ? that is the best of it ? contribute, to wards it without receiving from it. It is a perpetual round of give and get ? of getting that we may give, of giving that we may get yet more to five. , ? May God grant that we may all apply the test of /action, and obey heartily and always the words of our Lord, Go and do thou likewise." A PRAYER Dear Lord Jesus, who in Thy own serson didst exemplify The Spirit of rhe Samaritan, God's best gift to us, rhy children, bestow upon us that ipirit of neighborliness, but let us lever forget that neighborliness de nands service. Teach us that Chris -ianity is not only unselfish but it is ictive, a life as well as a belief, and hat its first quality derived from Jod Himself is Love and Love can lot be confined, in tensity and in nethod of expression, it cannot be egulated by personal preferences so iften faulty. We thank Thee for the words of one of Thy devoted servants who de fined Love as "the desire to give and the desire to bless. Let us never for get that sincere desire looks for a ,way to express itself and never fails to find some need. Enable us to see that not only is indifference contrary to the Christian spirit ? 'it is an im possibility, hence the blessedness of Thy example, dear Christ, "who went about doing good."' I As we cannot separate in thought and worship Thee from Thy cross, we cannot separate Thee from works of mercy. We are limited, we know in time and space, but we are unlim ited in desire, in intercession, in op portunity, and the joy of it is, blessed be Thy Holy Name, that any help given to anyone in- Thy name, touches the whole of humanity. "As he journeyed," that is all we are told of the Good Samaritan, but j can we not read between the lines, and recognize the personal sacrifice. 1 The law of service, is found in sacri fice. Help us to say with David, "I j will not offer to the Lord that which I doth cost me nothing. Blessed be God, the joy of service is manifold, but its dearest value, often unthought of, is in the denial of self, or rather in the giving of self. "Virtue has gohe out of me," was Thy Iloly dec- ?, laration, dear Saviour. Give us grace, dear Lord, to ask, j what has our Christianity cost us? Scorn, perhaps, and misunderstand ing, but yet more is demanded, even involuntary sacrifice. Forgetfulness of our own ease, weariness because we have sought to carry the burdens of another! Love so intense that it hurts, sympathy that called for tears; a high spirit which from the need leaped to demand a general remedy for the need ? those rive beauty to the service because soc.e of self has made the gift sacred. May we never fail to ask, ' what is the real value of our Faith? Where does our Master find the goodness and strength of our belief in Him? Lord, what have we given up for Thee that others may be comforted? Dear Master, help me to live and to serve, for truly to live is to serve. Let me know all men everywhere as my neighbors, and so to serve where Thou hast placed me that my service may be a part of that great world wide and age-long service in which Thou ait the Leader.
