The .Human Face
"For God Who commanded the
light to shine .out of darltness,
hath shined in, dur hearts, to give
the •light of , the glorious
IP knowledge of the glory of, God
in the .face of Jesus Christ" (2.
Corinthians 4:6)
The human face mirrors so
much of the human soul.We
look not 'at' but `into and.
behind' a face and glimpse the
inner life. When the spirit has
flown, the face is but a vacant,
empty mask. °
One ,of the` touching stories
from the pew of that famous
Edinburgh, Dr. ' John Brown
concerns a friend of his father,
who, after, two short years lost
by death- his beautiful and
beloved wife. Shortly after the
funeral, he purchases from, an
Edinburgh art store eight
prepared ivories and the
necessary pigments, and with no
previous training to guide him,
4 retired to the privacy of his
study. For- fourteen days, he
shut himself away from
everyone, but at the end of the
time emerged haggard and weary
but triumphant, holding in his
hand the one remaining ivory on
which was a •mdst life -like
likeness—.of.....his •' -deeply-beloved
wife.
• What about the face of Jesus?
It, too,. was a human face,
reflecting many moods° . and
mirroring, varied emotions. His
ti face' was ever changing. With
righteous indignation it could
look on the Pharisees and
Temple ° desecrators. Little
children were caressed by its
tenderness. Anchorless
-multitudes-_ found peace" -under...:
the shadow of its compassion.-
At the grave of Lazarus it was
wet with tears. At Gethsemane
°and Golgotha it was drawn with
bitter anguish. On Hermon and
on Olivet it was .transfigured
with an unearthly glory.
It is the Divine ordering that
q4 as we look onthe face of Jesus a•
veil hides' much from our eyes.
.Also the portraits of our Lord
extant are not precisely so. We
are to walk by faith and not by
sight. We are to have heart
fellowship with the Unseen.
Furthermore in the wisdom of
God the reflection of Christ's
blessed face is to be seen in the
faces of those who truly love
and live with Him. '
There is the Light of "Truth"
from the face of Jesus. The
human face may be only a farce
— a veneer or a deception. But in
the face of Jesus who said "I am
the 'Truth" there is the precise
light concerning that which was,
is now, and which shall. be.
Thomas• Nast,, the American
cartoonist, attended a party. 'It
was suggested he draw a
caricature of all present. He did'
this with a few swift strokes of
his pencil. The .sketches were
given to the guests • for
identification. . All recognized
everyone else but hardly anyone
+k recognized. himself. All of us
have a blind spot when we turn.
our eyes inward. He who, knows
us altogether, opens - our eyes , to
see and our hearts to know God,
Others and ourselves.
- There is that light of
"Transformation" from His face.6
In one sehse the words of the
hymn :writer 'are perfectly true:
"Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face;
And the things of earth will
grow strangely dim ,
In the light of His glory and
grace.'
Andre Gide, the French
novelist, in his lovely short story
"The Pastoral Symphony" tells
of a young girl, Crtrude, who
had been .blind from 'birth. The
picture which she had .of folk
around her neither her friends
nor family tried to upset. An
operation oh. her eyes enabled.
her . to see. She made two
crushing discoveries: one was
that Nature was more beautiful
than she had imagined; the other
was that the faces of people
were sadder than she imagined —
lined with care, inner anodety
and, restlessness. She almost
v ished' her eyes had never been
opened.
The finest inscription in the
Harvard Chapel is the one to the
memory of Dr. Peabody:, "For
36 years he walked among the
professors and students of
Harvard Unilrersity and Ovist not
that is face did shine." The
