Thursday. July 5. 1984-KINGS MOUNTAIN HERALD-Page 7B
by REV. FRED WELLS
, PASTOR, MIDVIEW
BAPTIST CHURCH
Ira Stanphill wrote a song that
I believe is the key to awakening
us to truly live. It was entitled,
“But I Know Who Holds My
Hand.”
Let us look at a part of this
song:
I don’t know about tomorrow,
I just live from day to day,
I don’t borrow. from its sun-
shine, For it’s skies may turn to
gray.
Many things about tomorrow,
I don’t seem to understand,
But I know who holds tomor-
row, and I know who holds my
hand!
Knowing that Christ holds the
first place in our lives, we need
to heed what Paul wrote to the
Eph. 5:14, “Wherefore he saith,
Awake thou that sleepest, and
arise from the dead, and Christ
shall give thee light.”
We don’t want to drive a car
when it is not firing on all
cylinders for it does not have the
power to perform properly,
neither do we perform for our
REV. FRED WELLS
Lord properly if we continue to
sleep, neglecting to study, to
pray, and put in practice that
knowledge which God has given
us.
Years ago Marcus Aurelius
said, “Do not act as if you had a
thousand years in which to live.”
Misused or unused talents do
not bring real satisfying life. It
has been estimated that the ma-
jority of people use only one
tenth of their mental potential.
Use Your Talents
We wonder if that would not
hold true of our spiritual
possibilities. Indeed, most of us
need to wake up and live a more
abundant life!
People who are asleep are in-
sensible both to the dangers and
possibilities of life. Sometimes
God must permit trials and dif-
ficulties to come upon us to
awaken us as to where we stand
in our Christian life and point us
to what we need to do.
: Too often we spend our time
in just “doing good” instead of
doing our best. We cry that we
don’t have time, yet spend
countless hours doing secondary
things. That’s why Paul was say-
ing to the Eph., “Awake thou
that sleepest” for that was a need
in that day and today.
To awake is not enough but
requires action. When Paul said
“Arise From The Dead.” This
means to do that which is
positive for is we know what to
do but have the will to fail, we
cannot be successful in anything.
How can we wake up and
live? First we must want to. The
master asked blind Bartimaeus
“What wilt thou that I should do
unto thee?” He answered, “Lord
that I might receive my sight.”
He was specific. He knew what
he wanted: so must we!
When we can say as the song
writer wrote, “And I know who
holds my hand,” then we can
know with assurance that God
can truly use us and when once
we have learned how to wake up
and live, we must “act as if it
were impossible to fail!” To keep
mentally and spiritually awake
we need to keep going. Freezing
men are tempted to rest and
sleep, but their only hope of sur-
vival is to keep moving.
We don’t know about tomor-
row, but Jesus said, “I am the
vine. Ye are the branches.” Our
power is not in ourselves but in
Jesus, so we need not worry
about tomorrow but live today
according to the light Jesus gives
us.
The challenge in Eph. 5:14 is
awake, arise, and we have the
promise of God’s Word that
Christ shall give thee light.
Let God hold your hand and
wake up and live today.

Irving Mond To Speak
At Brotherhood Meeting
Irving Mond of Charlotte,
who survived Adolph Hitler’s
Holocaust, will be guest speaker
at the Men’s Brotherhood
meeting at First Baptist Church,
Kings Mountain, Wednesday,
July 12 at 7 p.m. ‘
The public is invited to attend.
Mond was a youngster during
the Holocaust and saw his
parents and other relatives and
friends tortured and killed by the
Nazis. He spent time in German
concentration camps.
Mond is one of six Charlot-
teans who survived the
Holocaust and who are now tell-
ing their stories and warning the
4
public that there are signs of a
return to the ‘inhuman
behavior’ that led to the
Holocaust.
Don Mariaschin, assistant na-
tional director of the Jewish
Anti-Defamation League who
spoke at a memorial service to
over 50 Holocaust survivors in
Charlotte recently, said some of
those signs are the continuing
struggles of some Arab nations
against Israel; international ter-
rorism sponsored by such na-
tions as Syria, Iran, Libya, and
North Korea; human rights
violations in Argentina; and the
Soviet Union’s oppression of
Eastern Europe and Jews and
other groups inside Russia.
“If Israel’s enemies succeed in
their objective, Hitler's work
would be finished,” he said. “In-
ternational terrorism is the new
Hitlerism. And it must be stop-
ped now. Then it was Hitler. To-
day, it might be Libyan leader
Muammar Qaddafi.”
Over six million Jews and five
million Gentiles—mostly gypsies
and Poles, were baked, gassed,
suffocated, starved, stabbed and
shot to death by the Nazis dur-
ing the Holocaust.
