— — International Undorm Power for Need - Lmms far November 1. IMS ■; * I 'MERE ore various kinds of * power, and thia lesson to not about moat of them. For example there is mechanical power. j and atomic power, and electrical power. There to j . • armed torce em JU erted by a na- JJ i tion, and there are all the forces S of nature. We are not concerned di- ■ jMj rectly with any of these. We will ■ think not of one Sg|||i|Kfl particular kind et ■MnKfaH power, but of any fa faafaiM kind which is per* ' Bonally controlled and used, the power that every one has. PracJ tieally all human beings exert some kind of power. It may be the power of influence; it may be based on money; it may be political or social; it may be power to command, such as ir held by seacaptains and labor bosses and office managers. The reader is invited to reflect on his own situation and concentrate his mind on whatever power, be it ever so small, whieb he himself exercises or can exercise when he pleases. Very few persons are complete Zeros. | • • • • Purposes as Prayer Is it wrong, that is to say, unChristian, to wish to bo strong? Os course neL There is surely no virtue hi weakness. To wish to be weak, or to be content with weakness. is no sign of a Christian. It depends on the motive behind the desire. Now power can be had. or wished for, for various reasons, bad and good. Some people like to be strong just to show oft A boy goes around bending his arm and showing the other boys what big muscles he has. just bragging. That shay be all right for a boy (though the boaster to pretty sure to be thrown sooner or later). But when a grown man does the same thing he is just being childish. However, this Is, harmless compared with another com mod misuse of power; that is. using it to build up more power. We can see it in politicians whe hold on tc‘ important positions even though i they could be more useful in private life and though a dozen other men could do their job quite well as they can. We can see its even in the church, t where some men like to get on and stay on important, committees because then they can ‘‘crack the 1 whip” over their brethren. Worst and meanest of all mia-uses of power is using It to hurt and crush others. We can see examples of this on the national scale, all through history. It scales all the way do.zn to the blackmailer, who uses some bit of scandal that he knows about to ruin the lives of perhaps much better men. 1 • • • Jesus and His Power Now Christians have always before them an example of tremendous power, gently and generously used. Readers of this column will be divided into two classes. Some will take the stories of Jesus* miracles quite litterally. Others will suppose that some of these stories may have been exaggerations of loyal memory. Let those who are j skeptical about the miracle-stories give a thought to this: Even granting, for the sake of the argument, that every one of these miraclestories is a “mada-up” one; they surely' would never have been invented about a L weak man; and < they never would have been told about a selfish one. The historians who are mast fr'll of doubts about Jesus agree and admit that he was a man of extraordinary power. And evep if you thought (as this writer does not) that most of the ' tales of Jesus were wonder-tales and no more, the fact remains that these tales, every one of them, shows a Jesus who never uses power to show off, never uses it “just because,” and seven times never uses it to hurt any one. Power for Need Jesus gives us the right Christian line. “As he is, so are we in this world,” said one of his friends. Power is given ua, as all the gifts of life are. tor use in the name of God and! the help of man. Whatever power we have, we possess as stewards. It makes no difference bow obscure we may be, - 4 every one of us has some degree el power, of some kind. It may be a I mother with her children, a teacher with hia pupils, ;-n older child with younger children, a business man with many employees, a judge on the bench, or an officer in a 4-H club—if our decisions affect the life of even one other person, then God will ask us: Did your power hurt others, or help?
