PAGE TWO THE CANADIM< STATESMAN. BOWMANVTLLE. ONTAIUO THU7RSDAY, NOV. 12th, 1958r Re igion for Today Have You Stopped Growing? A Weekly Talk By Rev. IL R. Nicholson One of tý most searohingt questions any man can ask hlm- self is this. "Have I stopped growing? Arn I keeping alive my capacity for further devel- -opment? Arn I standing stili or arn 1 pressing fcrward with i.ncreasing zest?" Many persons today are in grave peril, but t'hey do floti realize it. They manifest some, s:gns of life, but they are stand- ing stili and niaking no prog- ress. They have lost ail inter- est in the living world around them. Dr. Wilfred T. Grenfeli in his book, "ýWhat Life Means To me," says that "Men can be dead while they live," and that "éexistence is not life." Over. two hun.dred years ago, Vol- taire, the great French poet and reformer, declared: "Marty-men die without having lived," and, alas, this sayin.g is also true in th is twentieth century. The simple-minded brother who in prayer-meeting said, "Lord, we thank thee that we are yet, we humbly trust, alive", was not so far wrong. An American writer, George Trask, described a man who, far along in life, looked like on Egyptian murnmy, had no moral sensibility, and for half a cen- tury showed no sense of God or religion. He had no more public spirit than a mud-turtle,J no care for good roads or schools, good laws or order, who seemed to have no love even ELECTRIC LTD. ** CONTRACTING REPAIRS * E a REFRIGERATION -ELECTRIC MOTOR - SALES - SERVICE T.V- RADIO - APPLIANCES j e 'e for bis own kmn-m a word, he hati ne apparent interest in 1anybody or anything anti the verdict which Mr. Trask pro- nounceti was that the iran bati been deati for fiftY yeais, only ithey hati neglectedti t bury him. 1 We hear frequently of "the L deati line" in the varieus pro- fessions. It is the tinwi in a man's life, when be f ails te keep abieast o! bis age, when be ceases te grow. Then it is 1that he lags behin in the race c f life, anti bis services are ne longer requireti. Growth is the vital andtIin- dispensable thlng in all life. Growth is life itself. The mom- ent growth stops deatb begins. Wateh the rose in your garden un! cia its beautiful petals. Tihere is incieasin.g life just as long as the grewth anti develop- ment cf the flower gees on. When its growth is cempletc, when the rose, full-blown, has openeti its red beart te the sun, prouti in its perfect loveliness, alîeadv death is beginning, anti soon the petals fail. We are taught in the Scrip- tures that grcwth is a tiuty, which must net be neglecteti. One o! the wisest ceunsels of the New Testament is this word o! St. Peter: "GrTow in grace ant ini the knowledge o! oui Lord anti Saviour Jesus Christ." What dees it mean te grcw in grace? It may mean many tbings. Dr. R. E. Speer says it may mean grewingmin fondness for those things which, please Gcd, in the likeness cf the character o! Goti, in frienti- ship for Christ, in kintiliness, anti consideiateness of spirit, in fiientiliness anti tentierness o! feeling, in ripeness anti gentle- ness andi gracicusness o! char- acter. One way to help alcng this growth is te remember St. Paul's counsel: «'Let yeur speech be always with grace." It is sati that there are se many Christian men anti we- men, who make very little pie- gress in Christian life, but an earnest, true Christian man neyer stands still. He is con- stantly grcwing anti progress- ing. As th years pass he in- creases in kncwlcdge andi wis- dem, anti grews rich in exper- lence anti in the grace o! Goti. Alexander the Great crieti b- cause there were no more woîlds te conquer. Thank Goti none of us today are in suchj a bopeless position.I There are innumerable worltis for every brave young man anti woman te conquer - the vast1 worlds of religion, science, lit- erature, philesophy anti social service. Man is made I the Image of God and bas within hlm untolti possibilities of development. The glortous thing about a mn'!s life ia that it neyer reach- es its completion. It neeti neyer stand stiil. The unfolding beau-; ty, the increasin.g richness may! go on forever. Old age is not a! stopping place; it is a perioti when the richest life is possible,! wtien the sweetest fragrance mey be given out te the worlti. Old age is a tisse for the gatb-I ering Up o! the filness of al the years that are past, andi ex- tracting from them the ripe blessings whioh youtli can neyer give te mankinti. Olti age is not a time te stand stiil. It is the time when the eoger seul cf man presses on te the more abundant lif e, here andi ncw, andi then on te the consummation cf life anti te the triumphs and glories cf the Kingdem cf God in the world beyonti. Here is Karle W. Baker's lit- tle poem with its plaintive plea: "Let me grow lovely grewing old, Se many fine thin.gs do- Laces anti ivory anti golti. Anti silks need flot be new. There la healing in olti trees; Old streets a glamor held, Why may net I as weil as these Grow lovely, gîowin.g old?'
