One day a friend showed me a small box. Music imimediately came from it when I turned a knob. "A miracle," I said. My friend laughed, "No miracle; just a. transistor radio." We are so clever today that we can destroy a whole city with one bomb, send rockets to the mioon, produce fresh water from salt water. Few things appear to be miracles now. The dictionary says that a mir acle is caused by a supernatural Bjfcny- Now if everything we did were kind, if everything we thought was pure and good, and if everything we said were help ful and loving, would that not be a miracle? Jesus works such a miracle. If we allow Him to rule in our lives, we begin to live with a purpose. If we give Jesus Christ the chance, He work His miracle in us. Prayer: Loving Father, today work a miracle of love in my life and give me the grace to think purely and to act lovingly, through Jesus Christ, Thy Son and our Savior. Amen. Thought for the day: Unless )fchere is the miracle of redeeming love in my life, the world will not believe in my Savior. Eric R- Eastwood (New Zealand) E. R.

TWO ITEMS TROUBLE Many people have been aroused from their usual state of indiffer ence by reading articles about two significant issues appearing in many recent publications. One such article was entitled "God Is Dead" and another re ported the United States Supreme Court had rendered ia decision that members of the Communist Party in this country were no longer required to register as agents of an alien government. Do such controversial reports stir you also? After a scrutiny of the article "God Is Dead," many failed to comprehend what had been writ ten by the author, Dr. Thomas J. J. Altizer, a teacher of the Bible in the College of Liberal Arts of Emory University. The lack of comprehension is, however, no longer an unusual state when reading the news. Altizer's mean ingless statement would die of its own inertia if there was not an other related issue that must be considered: Whether or not, like that of Mia 65 FORD Fastback; solid black, 1956 CADILLAC.

HAD I JLST KNOWN The pastor was rejoicing with a little old lady over one of her el derly relatives who had finally joined the church after a lifetime of riotous living. When she wondered if the old ster's carrying-on would be for given, the pastor assured her: "Yes, indeed. The greater the sinner, the greater the saint." "Oh," she mused wistfully, "I wis bl had leurned that 40 years ago." THE BALANCE Living today is a continual tug-of-war between what we make and what we spend. Mark Twain, "God's Death" has been greatly exaggerated by some one is of little moment. God has said that He will not be mocked. Many believe this. He is not bound by man's interpre tation of Him or His word. Of course, more deadly signifi cance for the United States and for the world is the fact that anti-God and anti-Christ interna tional communism is not dead, but is breathing more menacingly than ever before. Sustenance for its advance may have been pro vided by the recent "wrong-headed" decision, in this writer's opin ion, of the U. S. Supreme Court. This decision actually nullifies a 19B8 subversive control law. Joe L. Morgan, Rt. 2, Marshall in "Back Talk," Asheville Citizen rn.wTrrn ri jt MARSHALL, N.
