sen.-e t;>e Scales: recommendation
that can be given to an individual
is that of "oeinga man."
What does, it mean to a man"
What is man? Ih the story of crea
tion there is a picture of man as he '
relates to other created things. !
Briefly the picture is this. God
created the heavens and the earth
and made them to His own liking.
There was water and dry land.
The sun, moon, and stars appeared.
A fruitful climate was established
in which all kinds of vegetation
sprang up. The animal kingdom
was established. But this was only
the* setting. The crowning event
of ail was the creation of man to
have dominion over all these things.
Not only so, but man was given the
distinction of being made the last
in the order of creation, and man
was made in the image of God.
This was not an ordinary creature,
but one who had in him something
that made him like God and akin
to God.
Much later a great man in medi
tation looked up into the heavens.
As he began to comprehend- the
immensity of the universe and the
clocklike precision of the sun,
moon, and the stars, he exclaimed,
"When I consider Thy heavens, the
work of Thy fingers; the moon and
the stars, which Thou hast ordain
ed; what is man that Thou art
mindful of him?" Even so today,
as one thinks of the multiplied
millons of people on the earth, one
is inclined to belittle himself and
think that he is so insignificant
that nothing matters what hnppens
to him. Still the answrr comes,
"Thou hast made him a little low
er than the angels, and hast crown
ed him with glory and honour.
Thou hast put all things unior his
feet."
Man! What a being! Recognize
yourself? Well, most of us un
fortunately have been . something
less than men at times. We have
taken on beastly qualities, and
sometimes it is difficult to dis
tinguish the man from the beast.
There are too many Dr. Jekyls and
Mr. Hyde's. "Be a man, my son."
