One of these was in-. ducted into the unit at the September general business meeting. by National Jaycette vice- president, for Central Region, Louise Aasen. Two others have in- dlcated a desire to learn more about the group's activities by attending the Octobor. general business meeting. On~ Sept.* 22, the Whit- by Jaycettes sold coffee, donuts, sandwiches, and cold drink-s to, par- ticipants and spectators at the fifth annual C.S.B.R.A. sanctioned Soap Box Derby spon. sored by the Whitby Jaycees.

HUNT Whltby Baptist Church What would you do with three extra hours every day? Sorry, you can't have themi1 But what if you took three hours every day for sometblng special and satisfying? Think of what you could do - paint, coek, sew, write, do carpentry; watch TV or take long walks. Recently I heard a preacher talking about spen- ding three hours a day ini prayer and meditation. Ah, but you say prayer and méditation are not marketable. Irrlevant, unproductive and non- creative, you say?, If you don't belleve in God, is thkere any point in prayer? Perhaps meditation. If you are à believer, what on earth do you say to God for three whole hours aday?, Try a few minutes. And beileve, perhaps, for the flrst tinie in your, life, that God 15 rlght there, super- real, listening to every thought and word. Tbree hours may prove irrelevant, because you can have an attitude of prayer ail day long and stil go about your business. The equation will fot be 24 plus 3, nor 24-3, but 7<24x1). Mind you, your life may change, Relationshlp wlth God can make you "single-minded" and squeeze out what doesn't fit. As George Meredith said, "The man, wbo seeks but one thing in life, and only one, may hope to achieve It before lUfe is done"l. Would you go with the psalmist who declared, "One thing have I desired of the Lord and that will I seek after - to be In his presence and enquire of him forever"? The Go f history is very patient with us. Few things are dune instantly and when natural processes mature and ripen, the resuit is a wholeness we need in our frantic search for succesa. To go with our prayer and meditation we need the unique insights and guidance of seripture.. Even with its antique flavor and, at times, fantastie pic- tures and stories, the Bible speaks to us in practical terms about the ever-recurrlng issues of dally life. Fromn cave to computer, God is revealing himself to us where we are and as we are. If you know ail this and dlaim te be too busy to read scrlpture and pray, ask yourseff how much time and money you are spending on various chemicals "and gimiks to make life temporarily easier, more viable and exciting. How much timedo you waste? Seek God while he m'ay be found. Cail on Hlm wbile Hie is near.
