I mitted to Christ is busy work
ing to promote God’s Kingdom.
The person who wants to grow
I more mature in the Christian
' life will not wait until someone
' asks him to do something, he
I will find something that needs
to be done.
Let me point out the danger
|of simply working in the
! church. Some folks work in the
I church for the wrong reasons.
They enjoy the credit and
praise they receive from others.
They do not work for the glory
of God. but for the satisfaction
they derive from their efforts.
We must keep in mind that
we are not necessarily Christ
ians because we work in the
church. The truth is, we work
in the church because we are
Christians.
Jesus had something to say
about this. He warned against
praying like the hypocrities da.
They love to stand in the syna
gogues and on the street cor
ners in order that others might
notice them. Jesus said, ..
they have reward.” That is to
say, the praise men give them
is their reward. God does not
honor such prayers.
Jesus said, “Wherefore by
their fruits ye shall know
them.” (Matthew 7:20) There
fore, one mark of the growing
Christian is service. Jesus also
said, “Let your light so shine
before men, that they may see
your good works, and glorify
your Father which is in hea
ven.” (Matthew 5:16) We
serve, if we are genuinely de
voted to Christ, not for our
own sake, but to glorify God.
Everybody can do something
We may not be able to teach a
Sunday School class, or sing in
the choir or participate in
group discussions. This does not
mean that we are of no value
to God through the church. You
can pray. You can be present.
You can invite your neighbors
to church. You can, with God’s
help, be the person He wants
you to be.
One of my favorite stories is
recorded in The Acts. There is
only a passing reference made
to a woman named Dorcas. Her
life did not make the headlines.
She was not, by some stand
ards, an outstanding church
man. She probably never stood
in public to pray or speak be
fore an audience.
One day Dorcas became ill
| and died. Her friends sent for
Peter to come and help them
When Peter arrived, most of
the people of Joppa were
crowded into the humble house
in which Dorcas lived. They
were all weeping and many of
them brought coats and gar
ments that Dorcas had made
for them. What a noble tribute.
There were many things that
Dorcas could not do, but she
did what she could. We some-
I times forget that all service
1 ranks the same in the eyes of
i God.
Genuine service is tended
only for the sake of fulfilling a
. need. The person who serves
from honest motives doesn’t
i care who gets the credit as long
as the need is met.

PEOPLE BUY NEWSPAPERS
BECAUSE THEY WANT
ALL THE NEWS . . .
They are as much interested in the advertising columns
as the news columns because advertising is the news of what
is available in goods and services at the stores they know.
There are no gadgets to turn off the advertising in news
papers. Nobody wants it turned off. Every survey ever made
shows that people prefer to have the newspaper they buy
contain advertising because the
Advertising Is News!
The newspaper is there all day and far into the night.
It is there for the whole family to read.
And They Do!
It is there to be read at the time and under the circum
stances when the reader asks to be informed. It is there for
the housewife to tear out the ads and take them with her
when she shops.
And She Does!
There are no dials to turn on. There is no problem of
turning the dial et just the right time. There is never a
question about whether the advertiser's message gets to the
reader.
