'the words must come fast!
What is one to do? You are
reaching out for a deadline and
something must be said. It is
that time of year again. People
are making their plans for --the'
and Winter - what will I
involve myself in? Gond
ti question, What will be my plan?
Well whatever 1 am to do.it •
must be useful.. It must make
some contribution somehow.
There is so much time wasted!
Have I really time to re -think my
life? Have I the 'tulle. at hand to
remake my image my
vocation - my work? Death is
just around -the .corner -
someone has said - and -time is
fleeing. There is a deadline to
make and am I ready?
• Men speak of the nitty-gritty.
What is the nitty-gritty? I
suppose 'y they mean , the
fundamentals of life. You are
getting down to the basis - the
essenee - the foundation. Has
my life a meaning •for today -
tomorrow? Did it really,4 mean
r► something yesterday? 'Or, has all
been fruitless, a loss, a waste of
talent, time and topic? There is a
deadline' to make - and can I do
it?

iI MEMORIALS -MARKERS & CEMETERY ,LETTERING
Yes if I will go aside for a
little time and think there is a
distinct possibility I' " will
succeed. Why am 1 here? What
am I to • do? Live! Love! Do!
God has a plan for every life. •
Our contribution 'to the scheme
'of things, may appear very small
to us - but = it must snake its
mark. I have a deadline to meet!
It is in terms of my relationship
to God and to man. I cannot say
I believe all the guidelines of
God and then go out and do
exactly as I please. I am free -
yes - but once I commit myself
to a set of principles then I must
govern myself by those
principles. If I say I • love God
then I must turn around and in
sincerity love man also. This is
His commandment. You cannot
live half a life.
Just last night I saw a
beautiful moving picture
concerning the rife of Buddha.
One of the things that came
home to me is this, "Revenge
..begets revenge: evil begets evil."
So much depends on my
relationships. Christ (and His
greatest, ambassador, ',Paul) told
us that good must be our
deadline. If we are treated
harshly we must not return evil
for evil. 'Good must be • our
response. Forgiveness must be
our forte. It was portrayed best
on the Ci`'oss. ,
What about that Cros4 Jesus,
said, "Father; forgive' them 'for
they know not what they do."
This was His exemplification of
the best. He was in the process
of crucifixion and yet He could
forgive. He was dying for' the
sins of others -. yet, He could
forgive. How small become -our
trials. How often we' return. evil
for evil! It is not making for a
batter world. Can .we go the
second mile? •
- •'Time would be well spent in
returning forgiveness for evil
done.. We could • meet our
deadline if we tried. We are in
the world to do our level best. It
may sound soft when we say it,
but we are here to show. a
kindness, to be patient, to
resolve difficulties, to • show
affection where there appears to
be none. We are in our station to
be Christ's man or woman - in
all situations. That is the
deadline we must meet.
People are'people - and must
be treated as people. They are
living entities. They deserve our
best. Christ died to elevate them.
Christ died to give them
nobility. As we start out a new
Fall can we meet our personal
deadline? Can we draw closer to
the Master? Can we let our faith
live? 'Can we stand again in the
glory of the resurrection and
know He accomplished all for
us? Will we adhere to His
promise and gain strength from
it? "And, lo, 1 am with you
always, even unto the end of the`
world. Here is the. source. Here
is the .meaning of it all. He is
standing today beside you and
all His 'power is available to you.
Draw on it! Believe- in it!
Depend on it! You will 'surely
meet your deadline.
