MESSAGES FROM THE WORD RY GOQERICH MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION LENTEN MEDITATION 13y Rev, N. L..Gostonyi, Unite Church of Canada, Dvnganno From the early tithes of tit. whristian Church, the Lent Season has-been the period o preparation. The Christie churches throughout tie wort consecrate this period to titdeepening of the spiritual value and to the renewal of the loy ally of their members to thei Lord and Saviour.During this period, man people give themselves to tri pocial tasks of self-denial, pray or and meditation. Represent ing as Lent does the final tragi weeks in the life of our Saviour it has a special and significan appeal and we, His followers are constrained to make specie ma- of the means of grace fol the rowth of our soul. 16. this season more than a any- other time, we realize tha we are not our own but tha we were bought with a pricy:Th -rough the corridors of time conies the echo of His words, "God so loved the world that He gave His. only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." John, in hisletter, had written beautiful words which J. B. Philips, in his translation, makes even more touching. "0 dear child- ren of mine, have you realized it, here and now we are God's children." ,We don't know what we shall become in the future; we only know that if reality should break through we should reflect His likeness: Can you see the picture? Here is a Christian living- in -an evil -world- exposed to temptation and to a false- philosophy of life, which says that there is only one world, the- world which lies about us open to. the eyes of our physical. being. Vet a Christian knows that above— about and beneath there is' yet another -world, another reality which will and some dayy does break through tp our, life and fills us with n vision of thtr d world Re4e mor; .. , The world n. is full of mystery and the atj- e vance of science has only made en n d e s r y e c l t t EDITORS AGREE ON- NUCLEAR ARMS lk 'striking ultauiutity of opinion 011 the ilttl)Ortattt question of nuclear arms for ('ana(fa pulses from a group of ('auadian \veeki;T ne\w,paper editors who 1(1 (111Iy Vis_ ('(l NM?

But the Christian reality does not change, for it sees man not as he appears; but as he is Made in the Image of God yet fallen from his --high estate, it sees him as a sinter, yet cap- able of seeking and obtaining for'gi\ eness, a prodigal who can return, home. This is the bles- sage of Christ and this is the meaning of the Cross. We Bite" God's children and He sent His son to die for us to bring us back home. If this istrue, then there must be certain truths that inevitably follow. One is that we can and shall successfully strive against sirs, for the tug of God's goodness continually breaks through to men's hearts. ' . Another truth is that we shalt successfully strive against death, for the unseen reality df what we are is still divine and eternal as God, Himself. This is our hope.... But this is also our responsibility. For if We believe that God is our Father and hope in his love .... we hav'e the responsibility to our fellowmen. wherever they may be. Someone has described re ligion as having two hands.... one hand reaching out to God. the other 'reaching out in ser- vice of all.... Let us search our hearts this Season of Lent. Let us ,remember the great sacrifice of -our Lord and • let us look' at our. service to others in. the light of that Cross.
