V ' W< tni i all heard the state ment: ‘‘Misery loves com pany.” It is true that when one is : ick or in trouble, he does not feel quite so sorry for himself when he realizes that others are as unfortunate, and perhaps more so than he. However, some have used this phrase: “Misery loves company,” in speaking lightly of hell. Perhaps you have heard someone say: “Well, if I go to hell, at least. I'll have lots of company." This is true, but the company the lost will have when cast out of God's presence will hardly afford them comfort. The Bible story of the rich man and Lazarus brings this* fact out with great force. The rich man, you will remember, 1 ‘fared sumptu o u s 1 y every day,” while Lazarus “was laid at his gate, full of sores, de si] mg to lie fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table.” In the process of time, both died and the rich man, having felt no need of salvation sud denly was made to experience God’s wrath upon sin, so: the sacred records says: “In hell he lift up his eyes, being in National Council Launches Life Membership Drive Miss Lena Horne, noted en tertainer, and Mrs. Samuel Zales, prominent communal leader of New York City and Stamford, Conn., are shown go ing over plans for the nation wide Life Membership Cam paign of the National Council of Negro Women.

From his place of torment, the rich man saw Lazarus with Abra ham “afar off” but this sure ly afforded little comfort, while we do read that “Lazarus was comforted.” The rich man, then, still with haughty super iority, asked Abraham to send Lazarus back to earth to warn his five brothers “lest they come Into this place of tor ment.” He did not wish his brothers to join him in hell. “Misery” among those cast out of God's presence, then, does not “love company,.” The story is brought to a close as Abraham refuses the rich man's request, explaining that if his brothers did not hear the Word of God “neither will they be persuaded though one rose from the dead” (Luke 16: 31). The way to avoid the lot of rich man, then, is to believe the Word of God, particularly that part of the Word which tells how Christ died for our sins that we might be justi fied by grace through faith. Don’t be fooled by the old a dage: “Misery loves company,” Receive Christ as your Savior today, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved” (Acts 16:31). membership in the National Council of Negro Women is SIOO. Funds will be used for a spe cial council fund to advance programs in education, civil rights, housing as well as an energetic effort against juvenile delinquency. * * * Latest statistics indicate that diseases of the heart and blood vessels account for 34.2 per cent of all deaths in the United States, the North Carolina Heart Association reports. MEDITATION \ sermonette: BY COLIN DOUGLAS “Better is the end of a thing than the beginning.” —Ecc. 7;8. It seems there are many things in life about which we, as individuals, can do very lit tle. However, through prayer, we can learn to wait in pa tience for God’s love and wis dom to work their harmoniz ing and illuminating effect on these situations and problems that appear on life’s journey. It is t’ ue, waiting in patience is not always easy. We may see more effective ways of ac complishing what needs to be accomplished. We may see in efficiency and short-sighted ness. We may see injustice and selfishness. But certainly, we ourselves cannot be responsible for every reform needed. We ourselves cannot sharpen another per son’s insight or hasten his men tal and spiritual growth. We ourselves cannot rectify every injustice or uncover every sel fish act. In fact, when we al low ourselves to become upset about matters that are outside our power to do anything about, we only add to the negation and general confusion. The best thing to do, always, is to resort to prayer. And the only helpful attitude to take is to know that underneath everything God’s love, wisdom, and power are at work. We must waste no time in com plaints or emotional outbursts. If things do not right themselves at once, we must still have no fear. Having placed all these problems and affairs In God's hands, we should cease to judge by outward appearances -- we should cease to complain and to criticize and to fret and fume. We can find our solution, our comfort, our happiness, in God through our closeness to Him in prayer. “The breath of the Almighty giveth me life.” Job 33:4.
