th geo heralcl wed may i oth 1944 sunday is mothers day sunday is mothers day and one often falls to understand just why this beautiful old piece of poetry was not left in present day school readers somebodys mother the woman was old and ragged and gray and bent with the chill of the winter ttie street was wet with the recent snow and the woman s feet were aged and she stood at the crossing and waited ions alone uncared for amid the throng of human beings that passed her by not heeding the glance of her anxjous effe down the street with laugh and shout glad in the freedom ol school let out came the boys like a flock of sheep the snow piled white and deep past the old woman so old and gray hastened the children on fcher way nor ottering a helping hand to her bo meek so timid afraid to stir lest the carriage wheels or the horses feet he guided the trembling feet along proud that his own were arm and strong then back again to his friends he went his young heart happy and well content she s somebody s mother boys you know for all shes aged and poor and alow and i hope some fellow will lend a hand to help my mother you understand tf shes poor and old and gray when her own dear boy is tar away and somebody s mother bowled her head in her home that night and the prayer she said was god be kind to that noble boy who was somebodys son and pride and joy should crowd her down in the slippery street at last came out of the merry troop lie gayest laddie of all the group he paused beside her and whispered low til help you across if you wish to this fellow is the son that e prayed for lord he is our youngest remember him born in those years after the first world war different from the others always been like a fledgling we the awed earth i bound whrwatcfaed with dazzled eyes his upward flight infinity stamped on his face soon found we had to set him free to hold him tight along your burnished lanes of sunut blue our skyborn swoops and monu on mighty wings protect him god he s only twenty two dont be deceived by all his thunder- ingb ftor underneath that braggadocio her aged hand on his strong young is just a little homesick boj named arm joe gbe placed and without hurt or tt katie may long in the woman what did you do what have you done today my triends as you pause at the twilight hour did you face the tasks along the way ere the cooling night clouds lower there s a ruined world dials colling and so hard will be the way as we seek to do our part of the job what have you done today my comrades went aloft this mom and some will ne cr return tls part of the price that must be paid ere battle flags well burn but what of you in peaceful homeb bar off from the battles fray my comrades paid with all they had now what have you done today those empty bunks before me tell a story grim and true of men whose taskq were nobly done on land or in the heavenly blue as hesitation lasts men die and thousands more they say on help us with the victory soon did you buy a bond today is it too much to ask my friends that you think again each day j of the giant tasks that lie ahead and the trials along the way then add your weight to the mighty job till right at

of the preaching of a true and powerful message by a faithful and sacrificial messenger other factors enter in but these are the fundamentals pauls ministry at thessalomca which is described in acts 17 and explained in i thessalonians 2 re veals what should be preached and what kind of a preacher is needed perhaps some dead or unsuccessfu church may learn the secret toda and come to new we for christ 1 the message christ the sa iour acts 17 14 paul had already met the varying lot of both persecution and accept ance and had now come to thes- salonica a large and important city in macedonia where he had a lengthy ministry and estirblished a strong church what was the message which so signally succeeded in this great strategic center well it was not as some modern preachers in large cities would seem to think a series of social political or literary dis courses paul preached christ he reasoned with them and presented the saviour v 3 as one who was 1 dead for our sin theaf people were like us in that they needed a solution for their sin problem there were doubtless other questions which paul might have discussed but he wisely went to the root of their dif ficulty and showed them that christ must netds have suffered without the death of christ there is no salvation for any man only through the shedding of blood can there be remission of sin heb 9 22 paul had no part in the folly of i bloodless gospel as though il ere were any such gospel 2 raised for our justification it was not enough that jesus died marvelous as that is in our sight for many a man has died for his convictions but none has risen from the dead christ could not be hidden of the grave he arose the icton ous redeemer 3 declared to bt the christ he is more than a man more than j ii eat leader and an earnest teacher he is god t anointed one himself divine and our lord thus paul presented to the jews their messiah the man of sorrc isa 53 whose resurrection lared him to be the son of god with power rom 1 4 the deemer and lord blessed results followed such preaching v 4 ii the messenger approved of god i thess 2 1 12 sometimes a man with a true message largely nullifies its value by the manner in w he presents it or by his manner of fite in the community 1 he was faithful vv 16 one of the great temptations facing the me who is a preacher or teacher of god s word is to let his fear of men juse him to adjust his message to use a bit of flattery to please men paul was bold tn our god v i not trying to deceive or mis lead anyone v 3 seeking only god s approval v 4 not trying to make money for himself or gam standing with men b smooth words v 5 and not claimine a high po sition or aulhoriu over men v 6 2 he was affectii nate vv 7 9 how often those who are faithful and bold in preaching the truth ruin the effect of the ir work by be ing harsh and unkind here l a lesson many of us need to leirn to be gentle v 7 a man rnusi be strong the rardiml quality o a strong christian should be that hi is a jjentleman or she a gentle woman if not there is not reil strength in the life paul gave not only a message h gave himself his very soul v 8 the people to whom he minis tered were dear to him the pastor who looks down at his con gregatlpn with hirdness and per haps hatred for some individual needs to read this passage anti find paul s secret of success he labored with his hands to sup port hin elf v 9 lest anyone think he was a burden to them let no one think that this means tint a preacher is not worthy of sup pi rl christ himself declares that the 1 iborcr is worthy of his hire iukt 10 7 but it does show i i il s fine spirit nf devotion and unfite i he was unblimable vv 1012 ihlv in his life before god pan ats rctdy to live righteously b on men and thus o stand unblan a le before them and before hi i ord thfs indeed is a life wortl in the sight of god v 12 in other words the preacher v ible to say to his listeners m life shows you what i mean b my preaching the true preachei
