You feel your time was wasted in taking precious moments to go to Worship, however the one thing that we must all remember is that we may be one who leads someone else to Christ. While driving through the country, you may have seen the great power lines which carry electric , energy from the giant dynamos to neighboring cities and villages. The steel towers which hold up the wires often appear as human “Stickmen” holding the power lines in their extended arms. Although there may be hundreds of these towers or posts, each one is important. If only one of them should drop the line, all power would be cut off. So each of us is a tower carrying a line to others. If we fail to hold up the line, the great power and the love of God will not be transmitted to others.

Proper focus results when a person lives in harmonious relationship, with himself and with the world about him.

For the past five years the Enrights have worked with the Lunda and Tshokwe tribes. Mrs. Enright has had charge of a station school with 600 students attending. She has been in charge of the girls boarding as well as the womerfs school each afternoon. Besides these tasks, she has found time to teach her children the first two grades at home.

If the onions are sliced, boiling water poured over them, and allowed to remain for two minutes, then plunged into ice water, they can be eaten without after effects.

SATURDAY, MARCH 4,

A genuine religious experience is very helpful when facing problems. It will not necessarily banish the results of these problems but it does give the inner qualities of life that enable us to adjust to these problems and not be crushed by them. This adjustment begins with a willingness to accept life’s inevitable experiences. Those who accept what cannot be avoided and learn to work with it, really get the farthest. This is a spiritual application of the proverb, “There’s no value in hitting one’s head against a stone wall.” We must learn to cooperate with the inevitable and we gain the ability to do this in the strengthening power of religion. The truths ot Christ are expounded in the church to strengthen us. WHY NOT ACCEPT THE INVITATION AND COME TO CHURCH NEXT SUNDAY?
