Life inten - e-.. to
By REV. ARTHUR SCOTT
„ FREE'METH.ODISTCHURCH
I believe life is intended to have purpose,
meaning and fulfillment.
Life offers purpose when we determine
our destination: .When definite ,direction is
established,, then life. holds purpose. A car
gives us the.ability to go where we want to
go. A car withouta steering mechanism will
increase the difficulties for us.to arrive at
specific location. Someone said, "If you do
not make decisions, someone' will make
them for you." Using our ability to c'hoose
our destination brings purpose.. .
Life extends meaning when we define our
destination. Being able to answer the ques-
tions: what are you doing; +nd,why are y;ou
doing it; this ability is a, key to the door -to
meaning. We have the ability to answer
these questions. We hold this key to the door
• to meaning, but too often we fail to use it. I
'ani convinced life extends meaning when we,
.adequately define our destination.
Life gives fulfillment when we'develbp.our
destination. The realization of a dream
coming true brings a vital awareness of ac-
complishment. 'Our dream house is ac -

benefit of a county grant, ,
"We have to treat all our hospitals
reasonably fair. I think it would be grossly
unfair to Seaforth to withdraw our services
at this time when they're right at the bot-
tom," he said. -
• McKillop Reeve Marie Bicknell also sup-
ported the grant request.
"I speak in favor of Seaforth as we
. should treat our hospitals all alike in the
county. The rest have been coming in
regularly for their piece of the pie," she
said.
However, Exeter Reeve Bill Mickle
spoke against the argument to prop up the
"low man on the totem pole" with county
tualized when we invest our resources. to
develop a blue print into a building. Life
achieves fulfillment when we invest
Ourselves to develop a determined. and
• defined destination.
Luke's gospel ' tells us, "but the people
would not receive Jesus, because, his face
was'se't toward Jerusalem:" Christ's deter-,
'mined is to glorify God; Christ's
defined destination .is "tR seek and to save'
the lust and; Christ's developed, destina-
tion is '.'to give his' life as a rasom"' to ,.
redeem mankind for God's glory. •
• I believe LIFE is THE GREAT ADVEN-
TURE which offers purpose, extends mean-
ing And gives fulfillrrient.' I also :believe
LIFE -- THE CREAT ADVENTURE is ac-
tualized at .its• ultimate when we. invest
ourselves to develop the determined and the
defined destination designed for us by• God
in Christ, " `

grants as it would perpetuate the giving of
hospital grants instead of using financial
restraint.
"'If ii s council's intention to get out of
the business l of hospital grants),'we've got
to look very seriously at what we're really
intending to,do. It's got to be based on equi-
ty throughout the system," he said.
Seaforth Reeve William Bennett said the
county. should be willing to maintain the
high standards set liy the hospitals and he
hoped corincil would vote in favor of the
Seaforth grant for the $2.8 million building
project.
"I think ,all hospitals are important, to •
the county. We do have good hospitals," 'he
said.

With a car as reliable as a

to find out how good these
emergency•services really are.
But it's nice to know
they're there.
It's also nice to know that one car company
realizes that its responsibility to you as a car
