Signal -Star Photo Messages From The. Word THE GODERICH MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION LIFE AND H8W T O .101 uE-I. T (Rev. H. de Vries, First Baptist Church.) There is only one life to •live, and Jesus, Luke 12:,13-34 and Luke 16:19-31, tells us low not to live it.. These sfories are Sometimes called the "Parables of the rith fool." I really -do--net--think that rich people have a monopoly on this commodity. We tend to put, too much emphasis upon the fact that rich men are in- volved in these stories. We all_ know • that a poor job of living may be a fact of the poor and the rich, ,alike. You see, the principle underlying their fail- ure may • be the same. The main character in Jesus' stories was a very successful farmer -businessman. He `''was well thought of in the com- npnity. He was morally up- right. He spared no effort in -the enlarging, and the working serfs farm, which was -the envy of his neighbors, but as you read on, you discover that he did not make room for God in his life. This t'ecomes apparent' as you 'notice his complete self -depend- ence. He does net give God, or those who 'toil on his land, any 'credit for 'his success. His ego becomes inflated as lie ponders his achievements. He engages himself in conversation and this is what he says: "This I will do, I will pull down my barns and build larger ones, and I will store all my harvests • in them, and I will say to my soul, "Soul. you have much .goads laid up for many years, take: your ease, eat, drink, and be merry." _He_. has_ allowed his su.ceessI moves on into eternity, passixlg to make of him a selfish in dityi,aual. He is blind _to the needs of those around'4him and his social conscience is stilled. Escapism A lite spent eating, drinking and making •merry is a life" :13'f' escapism. It is the mechanism used -to -escape - facing tip_ to_ issues of life and ,the problems in th ' world around • us. For this : man, life became simply a matter of things. First it was to accumulate things, then it moved on to the care of the things he had accumulat- ed_ Finally, he died, and some- one else .rec'eived the thins he' had amassed. He found him- self in an eternity •separated from God. What 'a tragic end! Everyone of us, old, young, poor or rich, must: come to grips with the lessons dealt with in these stories. % We 'must all decide whether or not' we are going -'to allow God to re- main on tlx: circumference of our lives. or become central. We mus` decide whether or hot we are going to place our time, talents and possions, yes our very lives, in the ser- vice of God and our fellow -men. To ignore God and our fellows indicates that we have become self - centred. Self - centredness must always be viewed with" the final judgment before us, (see ?datthcw 25:13-46). People, who. live , life with God at the centre, have a power at their disposal which enables them to meet flfe's experiepces. The kind of life I am writing of i the kind that has the love of God • at its•centre, and- -it Reconditioned WASHERS DRYERS RANGES REFRIGERATORS WRINGER..
