THE SOWER

and Secular Thought Contributed
by REV. JAMES A. TURNER,
Pastor, M. E. Church, Patton, Pa.
And someone else has said: “A man
is one whose body has been trained to
be the servant or his mind; whose
emotions are trained to be the ser-
vants of his will; who enjoys the beau-
tiful, loves truth, hates wrong, loves
to be good, and respects others as
i himself.”
And Paul said: “Whatsoever things

It is plain that one’s duty is to keep
on climbing,— loving your neighbor,
helping him up the hill as much as
you can,—and someday the sunrise on
the other side of the hill will burst
on one's gaze and one will be greatly
glad.
Don’t be discouraged if the most of
the people seem to prefer to stay a
good while down at the bottom of the
hill, for this climbing business is most
difficult and decidedly hard work.
Every step steps up costs, costs, costs,
and that’s why so few are avid about
stepping up, for it means pain, self-
dicipline, self-denial, self-control, hard
work, humility, long suffering, kind-
ness,’ goodness, (good for something-
ness) faithfulness, meekness, willing-
ness to return good for evil, willing-
ness to prove yourself bigger than the
other fellow in not harboring spite,
ill-feeling, enmity, envy, an unforgi-
ving spirit, self-pity and hurt feelings
And always remember that simply
because a person has reached five feet
and several inches from the ground
that that is no proof at all that the
said person has grown up, either men-
tally or spiritually. One might be six
feet tall, physically, and sixteen in-
ches tall in mentality and spiritually.
Physical growth almost invariably
outstrips heart and soul growth.
If this fact is kept in mind one won't
be liable to get one’s feelings hurt
because of something someone else has
said or done to one. Only mental and
spiritual infants say unkind and un-
lovely things to other people, or in-
tentionally hurt their feelings, a nd
therefore one shouldn't take offense
—knowing that an infant is irrespon-
sible and too ignorant to know better,’
one therefore who is grown up will
not take offense, for what grown-up |
would strike back at an infant. A!
great man once said: “My equals won't
insult me, and my inferiors can’t.”
The only way to keep from remain-
ing down on the low level at the foot
of the hill is to keep one’s mind open
to all the truth, — every window of the
whole personality open to the sunlight
of all kinds of culture,—physical cul-|
ture, mental culture, social culture, es-|
thetic culture, spiritual culture, so that
one can grow in full and beautiful
proportions into a well-rounded and
full-orbed character that will be beau-
tiful to behold. '
If one doesn’t do that one becomes
a cripple,—a one-sided, unevenly di-
veloped, halt and lame, weak-kneed
and lop-sided cripple,—whose dispro-
portions and distortions are pitable to
behold, and who never come to know |
really what this thing is that is going |
on around them. !
Douglas Jerrold says: “The superior
man is he who develops in harmonious | freshments were served, the work of

physical nature. This should be the| mulated for future activities.

meant when he elsewhere said, “Have
that mind in you which was in Christ
Jesus.” That is, have Christ's attitude.
His attitude was one of love and
obedience. He tried always to do the
things that pleased the Father. Thus
was He in that attitude of mind that
is basic to true salvation, and all He
needed to do was to go on from there
to the acomplishment of every task
and duty that that attitude of mind
implied. Faith without action is dead.
Read James 2:14-26.
If you love God and want to live in
a way that pleases Him, then you will
have to do everything that love de-
mands, or you wont be saved. Just
WISHING to please or serve God won't
save you,—you will have to go on and
DO what he says. “Why call ye me
Lord, Lord, and not do what I say?”
It is DOING the will of God that saves
you. “Many there are that shall WISH
to go in, but shall not be able. Only
he that DOETH the will of God shall
enter in.” If and when you stop DOING
your salvation stops,—you stop climb-
ing the hill to perfection.
Paul said: “I am STRAINING on to
what lies before me.” In South Africa,
find a substance that is half charcoal
and half diamond. It was intended to
partly a cinder and partly a jewel
tary, aboriginal matter, which was on
its way to become gold, but by some
accident it got shunted on to the wrong
track,—it stopped short.
And there are lots of people who are
half angel and half devil,—half cin-
der and ghalf diamond,—simply be-
cause they stopped climbing, stopped
“straining on to what lies before.”
The Court Opinion says, “There are
three rules for success. The first is:
