Read I John 3:1-8 If we aay we have committed no sin, we make him out to be a liar, and then his word has no place In us. (I John 1:10 Ntb) Several yeara ago, I suffered some severe lacerations In a motorcycle accident. I went to a doctor to seek relief from my pain, but In treating my wounds he made my pain more intense. He first scrubbed my wounds with soap and water. Not until he had scrubbed out all the grease and road dirt did the doc tor bind up my broken skin. It was painful treatment, but if the doctor had spared me that pain, my wounds could have caused Infection and more pain. The healing of the Great Phy sician Is something like that. It hurts to know ourselves as sinners. But we must have con fidence In him that He can do for us what needs to be done. Unless God's word of Judgment first washes awayour self-deception, we can never know the healing, the Joy, the life that His mercy and forgiveness can bring, PRAYER: Dear Father, grant us the courage to accept Thy Judgment of us as sinners. May Thy word of grace find a place In us to heal and save us; through Jesus Christ, Thy Son and our Savior. Amen. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: If we are to have God's mercy, we must be willing to listen to His Judgment, Daniel L.

Neill L. McFadyen. tfc Taylor Column Continued from page 2 Most large dally newspapers with Sunday editions accept for publication a certain amount of poetry. Here, merit is an important measure of the poem's chances of making it into print. They rarely deal with "In memoriam" material. There ought to be some way to encourage young poets, fur certainly they will be discour aged If none of their deatlile-s verse is printed. Actually, there are a number of poetry magazines and other publica tions that offer a market (al though sometimes there i? no pay), but submissions from bona fide poets quickly claim most of their space. If you are a household poet, bless you. Keep writing (and crying, if poetry moves you to tears). Just don't write on rhe walls of "Hls'n and "Her'n." rhat i sacred space.
