       CHRISTIANITY BY REFLEX (Contiinuation)

Acts 20:24

However, I consider my life worth nothing to me, if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me –the task of testifying to the gospel of God’s grace.


It is not enough to admire Jesus, however extravagantly; or worship him, however devoutly; but to follow him, which is after all is all he asks us to do.  If it can be said that his standards are too high and cannot be attained, there still remains the undimmed glory of the quest.

Would you give yourself to a quest that has the strength of eternity in it?  Then remember that “Man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.”  (Matthew 4:4)

It is a basic truth.  If you give yourself to the cheap, the tawdry and the worthless; you cannot help but become cheap, tawdry and worthless yourself.

I firmly believe that there is something high and holy in every man or woman until in a short, or sometimes more lengthy period of time, each kills it in themselves.

Shout too many curses and too few prayers and slowly but surely your soul will shrivel and began to die.

I was ordained in 1954 and in all the years since that privileged moment I have seen a lot of bad but I have also seen a lot of good.

I have seen folk redeemed, whom it seemed were beyond redemption.

Changed, though most around them would have said it could never happen.

For often, though not often enough, someone catches the spark of the Nazarene.

And catches on fire.

And a heart dedicated to hate trades in this miserable sickness for love.

And a member of the male gender becomes…

A father redeemed by the love of God and loves his children with like-

minded patience and love.

And becomes a loving husband

And lives each day more and more as a child of God.

And a member of the female gender becomes…

A mother worthy of the name, and blessed is the child who is the recipient thereof.

And becomes a loving wife

And lives each day more and more as a child of God.


IF THIS BE MADNESS, this thinking of other people before yourself and of God often and well.  Then follow such madness for there is the hope of heaven in it.

It is certainly better than spending your life

trying to get all you can, keep all you can and let the other fellow get by as best he can.
