Clinton News-Record, 1947-02-06, Page 3THURSDAY, FEj6RUl Ifni, 6; 1947'; CLINTON NEWS-REEffilD FA.GE THRPet "THE SECOND MILE"' By <"REG" There are many in the world to- daei who haveno second mile theory h their lives, but there are those who do not stops even at the second mile, whose life is spent in travelling the second and even the third mile. Just what do we mean by the second anile. In Matthew 5:39, we read: "But I say unto you, that ye -resist not evil; but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also." In other words, we do what we do not have to,'do. So often in the ,daily routine of life sone surprising kindness has been done for us and we have not been able •to refrain from saying: "Well he or she did not need to have done that. They havealready done enough for me without doing ' that extra." • Those who have been laid aside for years tell as that they have; so often had that experience. So many of us have gone the second, third and even fourth mile to help those who were in difficult eireun- stances. Take for instance, there may have been some difference between two friends. Each has declared that they will have nothing more to do with the other. Time goes on and the trouble is not, cleared up. Some people cannot go on in life like that. They 'would do anything in reason to have things straightened out, others would go en to the end of their days and never give fn. Then the first one who has probably not been in the• wrong feels' she can stand it no longer and goes to the second one and apologizes for her part in the trouible. It is usually the one who is least to blame who does that. She has gone the second mile although it was not easy. A break in their friendship has been repaired and life goes• on smoothly again. There are times in a person's life when they just have to take what is said to them at the same time praying that God will keep them from answering and we know Re will do so, TI e fact that one apologizes shows that there is a Christianity in them which may not be found in the one who would be perfectly content to go on with a broken friendship. Should, there .be such a condition in your life do not let it go on any longer. We never know at what moment God, will call us and hoax -would we feel to be separated and have that thought with us for the rest of our lives. Perhaps,' never in the history of the + world has there been such a number of sudden deaths. Only God knows but we will be the next. Are we prepared? rArt times it is not easy to be un- selfish, but haw newel more happy we feel when we have gone the sec- ond mile, have put self to one side and have thought of others. We do not need to go far to find someone whom we can help. For instance, if we live near a hospital we could enquire if there is someone who- has few friends and who would like to see a visitor. Then go and spend a little while with them. Do not stay long enough to weary the patient and do not talk at great length about yourself or your fancily af- fairs. Pray before you go that God will give you the message to give the patient. At times just a few words spoken for, the Master will help the patient more than the read- ing of many 'chapters from the Bible and long prayers. It is better to understay than to overstay. Leave the patient in such a frame of mind that he or she will want you to come back. Perhaps we know parents who are trying to raise a family and cannot afford to have a "sitter" come in while they 'attend a concert. It may be 'we would like to 'attend the con- cept- but the little sacrifice we make, in staying with the children will make up for all we lose.

STEW ART A Lanark county dairy. farmer, R. A. Stewart, Almontc, bas been elected president of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture for 1917.

If we had a son or daugh- ter away from home would we not appreciate the fact that some fancily invited them into their home and entertained them for dinner and ask- ed them to accompany them to church. Many youths have been saved from destruction by just such acts of kindness. To be a Christian we must be humble. When any one Inerts oar feelings we should make a special point of going the second mile and exhibit the spirit of Christ. Accord- ing to Skis advice in the Beautitudes it is not only to do our duty, but to go the second mile and do what is not our duty. It is in doing that that we find our greatest pleasure in life. We receive jay in the first mile but when we realize that we do what is absolutely not required of us, the plasu•e is much more abundant. Many of us are still straggling with the first mile, Only as we walk along with Christ can we have the full realization of the joy of the second mile. Very early in life Jesus Christ began the journey of the see- ond mile and He followed it out all during His life time. :Although we have no authentic record of His child- hood days except when He spoke to the doctors in the temple, yet we know that all His life was spent in doing good. When we are following His example we are journeying in the second mile. Many of us have reason to be thankful to friends who have gone the second mile. May we repay he kind by trying to be thoughtful of someone else. The Christmas season which has just gone by. has brought to many, of us instances of -those who have; gone the second mile. It is not alone I the gift one receives but the kindly thought behind it. Ther are those of us who shortly prior to the Chrietmas season or dur- ing the opening days of the New Year have been saddened by the pas-) sing of a loved one. Row we have apprecialecl tine kindness of those;, who have gone not only the first mile but have journeyed through the sec- ond mile to prove to us that the love of God is in their hearts and they are not content to stop at the first mile post, but want to go on even' beyond the second mile in order to bring some comfort to our hearts which were broken by sorrow. Let us make it a rule of our lives M always go the first mile and if possible start and complete the sec- ond mile, and thus receive the great 1 benefit 'much can come to ns only in this way. "Have you had a kindness shown, Pass it on, 'Twas not meant for you alone.. Pass it on. Let it travel down the years,' Let it wipe another's tears, Till in Heaven the deed appears, Pass it on."
