*IIHE EEV. EDWARD 0. JOKES, A. K.
SELF-RENUNCIATION.
• The deity bf man ia self. The divinity
he bows instinctively is not God. With
the Persian he may not, indeed, worship the
son, for his sensibilities are hardly refined
enough, in many cases, to soar to so noble a
created object, and fix npon it his regards, but
himself is the centre aronnd which gravitate
hopes and wishes and plans and endeavors.
How will I be benefited by such a project?
How will such an enterprise avail me? How
much can I Spare myself in prosecuting such a
purpose, and still with all my sparing effect it ?
How much can I realize, and at how small a
cost of mental, moral, or physical labor ? How
much can X add to a my wealth or position or
character by some slight of hand which in
volves simple canning and policy without lay
ing under requisition any manly exertion of the
heart and nerve, limbs and brain. Such, such
ore questions which engross our thoughts and
enshrine our souls. The great, I myself, the
overshadowing unit which ignores all other
existence—this, this it is which makes man the
Contracted thing he is by nature. The pro r
clivity to exalt and magnify himself while
he depreciates others; this •it is which
divests'him; of tha dignity which attaches to
self-renunciation. But the question may bs
asked, if self is so closely enshrined in the
temple of our devotion, can we renounce our
claims? .Can we lose sight of o ur idol in thw
clouds of oblivion ? Can we rub out the mighty
unit, and substitute the thousands of our fellow
men ? Can- we so entwine our sympathies
around others as to make their interests equate
with onrs ? Can we stop off the little circum
scribed patch of egotism and circumnavigate
the world in fellowship ? These are solemn
questions, and should be - carefully answered,
and in answering them we are free to acknow
ledge that in one sense we cannot entirely for
get self. The best of men must study his tem
poral interests and endeavor to advance the
welfare of his family. This is enjoined upon him
by the Almighty, and he who neglects by law
ful means thus to advance his interests and
those of his- family, is a deliquent, nay, he is
highly culpable. If such remissness in duty
be self-renunciation, then the worthless, indo
lent and unthrifty man, who exercises neither
brain nor hand, may plead his forgetfulness of
self as a very noble trait of character. Self
renunciation is strictly compatible with the
study of our own personal welfare. To
illustrate this : We may advance our
welfare by honest means, and yet not
retrench our interest in that of others. With
an eye on our wants, we can still remember the
wants of others. Forward to consummate our
own enterprises, we can still co-operate frankly
and freely with onr neighbor in the furtherance
and maintenance of his plans. We can hush
the clamorous organ note of self, so far as to
hear the flute-like pleadings of onr brethren
who look to us for sympathy and aid. We can
walk round the interests of humanity and survey
the field of our obligation tq the race. “ We can
give np a little ease for some philanthropic ex
ertion. Tha staff of the traveler and the bag
of bread for distribution, may take the place of
the rocking-chair and slippers and warm coal
fire. _We can sustain with one shoulder our
own interests, while we withdraw not the other
from assuming the weight of our brother’s care.
It is only tins abnegation of self which takes
man from his moral hermitage and gives him a
throb or pulsation in unison with the beatings
of the great heart of the race. It is only this
which connects him in the chain of earthly fel
lowship as an integral link, supporting others,
and himself reciprocally supported by others.
A man who has thus sacrificed the illegal de
mands of self, at the pure shrine of a higher
divinity, .Bill never look upon his fellows as
mere puppets in the show, while he as the
master-spirit manages them as he may please,
and as best may suit his whims or his conveni
ence. He will- not use his fellows as mere
■stepping-stones to his own personal aggrandize- I
ment, while he hypocritically avows a profound
interest in their welfare. He will be part and
parcel with the race. He will love man as min. i
He will attach his heart to those who can add
nothing to his stores by their patronage, or to
nis tame by their recommendation. Man as
such will be invested with dignity in his eves,
hough the rags of the mendicant be his only
overmg. Kay, he will promote the welfare of
be poor with more alacrity because they can
make no return, except in their gratitude. And
he com of gratitude with him will never be
pa J‘ ? e wiU acknowledge its relative
alue as far above that of silver or of gold. To
tm there will be a bank of bullion in the tear
rop of devotion, and the uttered prayers of
P u thway he has smoothed through
“^ the brotherhood of man will crown
, a badge of honor, though in his
Un°«f St i 9 f bis own services, he would
f 9ft to claim precedence or distinction
bttle he has done in time. Honor will
r£V° “ m by the operation of a fixed law in
ArA <^n^ C< v tt -° my ’ and wb en his lips and hands
win memory will be a blossom which
will flourish in perenniai fragrance, for the odor
of goodness is undying and immortal.
