Clinton News-Record, 1946-07-11, Page 3THURSDAY, JULY 11, 1946 CLINTON NEWS -RECORD , • PAGE THREE' GARDENING EY "PEG" Some weeks ago we were sowing aeed and now we are beginning te reap what we have sown. Where we planted lettuce seed we are gath- ering 'fresh lettuce for our table and so it is with all vegetarles. We would think there was something radically wrong if v e sowed lettuce and carrots began to shoot their feathery tops. We would realize that in some way we had made a mistala, in the seed. No farmer would ever sow a field of oats and go out expecting to gather a crop of wheat. What we sow that we will reap. During the siunmar season and on into the fall we will be enjoying the crop of the seed we have sown. This applies to all forms of vegetation whether it be field, garden or Power plot. As we stand beside a field and look at the crop and ,realize that the standing grain is the 'product of . a comparatively small amount of seed sown we have wandered far fronv God a we fail to realize the almight- illness of His marvellous power. Christ does not wish anything .,.to We often ask why it is that God is so growwhich is contrary. to His divine lightly regarded in the world to -day. plan. We look back through the ages There is little use hr saying that the and as we visualize what must have world is better. We try to make been the beauty of the garden of ourselves believe that but in our Eden we cannot help but compare hearts we know that until Christ is that beauty with the chaos of the given first place in our lives the wor- are by praying to God to help them to preach His word, to bring to their congregations the fact that He died for us, Ministers and Christian people who do not follow God in this way, should get down on their knees and pray that God will give them the true seed of Christanity and then should go out and preach Christ crucifie in spite of what anyone should say. It may be we deserve it if •people say M. us that we preach Christ but we show•to the world that we do not foil. ow Him ourselves, Beware lest we are doing that It is the little things of life which grow into the big events. A rnessage spoken for Christ may be the means of bringing many, to Him. A word of kindness spoken- to some one who is down and out may help to taring that one to the Saviour who will change the whole course of his life. As a bulb has to cast off the part which is of no value to it so when we come to Christ it is necessary for us to cast off the things of the world world, to -day. God intended that we ld cannot improve. Should have beauty all around us but Joins Dominion Life BAS• IL B.
