These lines by an unknown au

Christian will think of his work as

'"Nobody can see

"But God sees it,"
the janitor said.

some light on work in general, as
God sees it.
There Is No Free Lunch
The little church at Thessalon
ic was troubled with "mooch
crs." The pepple there had got
the idea that the end of the world
was right around the corner.
Jesus would come again soon, in
their own lifetime. They did not
see the use in working ary more;
the house they were building (for
Instance) would not be finished
before the end would come; the
'Crop they were planting would
never be harvested before the
Judgment Day. So these eager,
expectant Christians just quit
their Jobs In droves . . . but of
course they had to eat. So they
became free loaders, boarding
wun sucn members of the parish
as did keep then- Jobs. When their
traveling Bishop Paul heard about
this, he wrote them a very plain
letter; Indeed he had said some
plain words while he was there
getting the church organized, only
they seem to have forgotten it.

not eat," he said. Help the needy,
7t by all means; but don't feed
the lazy. There Is only one basic
rule of economics (as an economist
has paid) and It Is one anybody
can understand: There Is no free
lunch.
What Ts Useful Work?
Now there is no special virtue
In work, in itself. A man could
work very hard shoveling sand
'from one pile on the beach to
another pile, and back again, all
day long. But it would do nobody
any good. To be sure, he would be
developing his muscles; but he
could do that better some other
way at some more useful job.
The Bible's references to work
always bring in the idea that the
work is to be useful. Work that
performs no service to any one is
not for the serious Christian. This
Is a particularly important point
for young Christians deciding on a
life's work. We ought to work, of
course, we don't want to be objects
of charity, we don't want to be
carried, we want to do lomething
useful in the world. But what kind
of work is useful? Paul told the
Thessalonians that they should
work with their hands, because
they were all hand-workers; but
some of the most useful work in
the world is not done with the
hands. Two points should be borne
in mind: first that as a Christian
I ought to seek the most useful
-work I can do, and second that I
can be most useful in what I can do
' best.
Crowing by Working -
Work makes the man. Or at
least, work shapes the man. Look
at any picture of a high school
senior class; they look all about
alike, and for that matter look like
any other senior class in America.
But take a picture (If you could get
it) of that same class twenty-five
years later, or more, when they
have all been at work In various
jobs for years. Some may be
drifters, ne'er-do-wells, and they
look It; misfits because they have
never stuck to useful work. The
others who have' stayed on one job
or another, will look different by
now, partly because of the kinds
of work they have been doing. The
housewife, the school teacher, the
farmer, the banker, the writer, the
soldier, the artist they do not look
alike any more. We grow by work
ing. But there Is another, question
too: Does my work help me to
! (row as 4 Christian? No doubt the
.slave-drivers of ancient Egypt
'grew by their work grew more
devilish Moses was growing, out
Jn the wilderness of Midian tending
sheep. But he was growing more

which we do It.

Second Sunday A. M. and
Fourth Sunday P. M,
TEXT: Exercise thyself unto godliness." 1 Tim. 4:T,
Some one has said, "Aim at the stars, though you may touch only the
moon." Certainly no one is going to rise very high if he is perfectly
satisfied to remain in a low static position. Paul's injunction to Timothy to
"Exercise unto godliness" was a big CHALLENGE TO HIGH ENDEAV
OR. The word, "Exercise," means to "practice and Train for Improve
ment." It is just as important to exercise ourselves in the arena of
spiritual matters, if we expect to obtain victory, as it is to exercise on
the athletic field if victory is to be achieved. Paul urges Timothy to set
his goal on:
1. PROPER BEHAVIOUR. A becoming behaviour becomes every one;
this is especially true in regard to a Christian What we are, and what
we do, speak louder than any words of profession that we may make.
The great urge is that "Thou mayest know how thou oughtest to be
have thyself." 1 Tim 3: 15.
2. STUDIOUS MEDITATION: "Neglect not the gift that is in thee
Meditate upon these things (the word); give thyself wholly to them,
that thy profiting may appear to all." Tim. 4:14-15. Out of the day of
twenty-four hours, or the week of one hundred and sixty-eight hours,
how much time do we give to study of God's word, and spiritual medi
tation? .
3. HEED THE DOCTRINE. Don't be afraid of the word, "Doctrine."
The world is flooded with 'all sorts of doctrines. Some of which are as
false as Satan. The fundamental doctrines of the Christian religion are
as definite, permanent, and as unshakable as God. 'Take heed unto thy
self, and unto the doctrine; continue in them; for in doing this thou
shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee." 1 Tim. 4:16.
4. AVOID PERVERSE DISPUTERS. Little is to be gained, and much
time can be wasted, by arguing with little puffed-up men, strutting a-
round blabbing their Infidelity, and spending their lives sneering at the
church of - God. "Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and des
titue of the truth, from such withdraw thyself." 1 Tim. 6:5.
L S. SEEK GOD'S APPROVAL. Many rules, standards, and creeds, have
been set up by men; many of these -are good. But nothing that man has
devised can be substituted for God's standard. "Study to shew thyself
approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly
dividing the word of truth." 2 Tim. 2:15.

on the ice, fallen and Injured her spine. Partially
paraiyzen ana unaoie to move from Her bed, the
despondent woman asked for a Bible.
Writing of the occasion years later, Mary
Bacr Eddy said it was divine guidance that
caused her to open the Bible at Matthew BE, 2, 7:
"And lo, they brought to Him a paralytic lying
Car waiting horpttrlngs of the mind
There sweeps a strain,
Low, sad, and sweat, whose measures bind
The power of pain.
And wake a white-winged angel throng
Of thoughts, illumed
By faith, and breathed In raptured jorj,
With love perfumed.
Then His unveiled, sweet mercies show
Life's burdens light.
I kiss the cross, ond wake to know
A world more bright. I
And o'er earth's troubled, angry sea
I see Christ walk.
The circumstances under which Mrs. Eddy
wrote the following hymn are not definitely
known. It Is probable that she wrote it while sis
ting on the great red rocks that overlook the '
ocean near Lynn, Mats, where she oAen went to '
meditate. 1
And come to me, ond tenderly, '
Divinely talk.
Thus Truth engrounds me on the roc?!.
Upon Life's shore.
Gainst which fho winds and waves Cun shock,
Oh, nevermore!
From tired joy ond grief afar.
And nearer Thee
Father, where Thine own children ore,
I love to be.
My prayer, some daily good to do
To Thine, for Thee;
An offering pure of Love, whereto
God leodeth me.
