Having out-of-town visitors? If We Knew Our Need, no. 22 -68 Would We Make It Profitable to Us? Do you not wish with me that men were more perfect? I cannot imagine anyone, anywhere, who does not see the need for more perfection in men, and wish that it could be brought about. Though we see the need, we do not get down to earth and do what we can about it. The need is talked about, but little is accomplished in deeds that supply what is needed. Much of the limited attention which the subject gets con cerns the motes that are in our brother's eye, rather than the beams in our own eyes. Luke 6:41 -42. The motes and beams that are in the eyes of men hinder their sight, and prevent them from reaching the perfection they so des perately need All of us stand in need of greater diligence and care to walk in the light as he (Christ) is in the light, for in so doing we become heirs of the peace and the blessings that are promised to those who do the truth. Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stand eth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful, but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and in his law doth he meditate day and night. Isa 1:1-2. All of us meditate on, plan and prepare for our vacations and anticipated pleasures, knowing they flee away as a shadow and are gone, but those things that men medi tate upon concerning the laws that are eter nal do not dissolve and vanish away, but bring peace and quietness to the souls of men. This is the profound reason for us to be concerned with the imagination of men. Most men consider their imagination their own affair, and will tell us they are respon sible for that, but this does not free other men from a responsibility in the matter. It is all the more reason for us to be concerned about it. The whole order of a man's life and the per fection he reaches is the fruit of his imagi nation. Keep thy heart with all diligence for out of it are the issues of life. Prov. 4:23. As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he. Prov. 23:7. Features of men's imagination that we need to be concerned about are pointed out in Gen. 6:5-6. God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually, and it repented the Lord that he had made man upon the earth, and it grieved him at his 511 PEGG ROAD Woman's Club Meets The May meeting of the Jonesboro Woman’s Club met at the Bank of Jones boro Community Room.

When our fellow men act in such a manner that they grieve us, we withdraw from them, but when men grieved God, he sent his Son into the world to reconcile the world unto himself A light that men might not walk in darkness, but have the light of life. Jesus said, my words are Spirit, and they are life. They give men a new heart and a new mind. The words that are Spirit and life af fect the imagination and change the char acter of it, elevating the imagination from carnal to spiritual realities. The gospel is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. Rom. 1:16. Man must rise above the carnal imagina tion, for it is not subject to the laws of God, neither indeed can be. Rom. 8:7. Spirit in spired imagination creates new men of us when it rules in the place where the carnal has formed the pattern of our lives. Never man so speak, said the soldiers of Jesus. In deed, never has the imagination of men had such a lift as the Spirit inspired gospel gives it. Peter spoke the truth when he said, Thou hast the words of life. Jesus is the conveyor of all marvelous light which he sheds forth in the world that men might walk in it. Paul, on account of his comprehension of the light that lighteth every man that cometh into the world said, I count not my life as dear unto myself, it is my joy to testify the gos pel of the grace of God. Acts 20:24. The imaginations of men put them to labor ing mightily for carnal things, but they need to restrain the carnal imagination, and give free reign to spiritual imagination which is acquired through the gospel, and the exam ple of the life that is seen in Christ Jesus. Oh, how love I thy law, it is my meditation all the day, Psa. 1 19:97. I will meditate in thy precepts and have respect unto thy ways. Psa. 119:15. This then is the message which we have heard of him and declare unto you, that God is light and in him there is no darkness at all. 1 John 1:5. Light is the foundation and groundwork for imagination and faith which transforms men into children of light. While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. John 12:36. K^ep thy heart (imagination) with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life. Prov. 4:23. ATLANTA, GA. 30315 Notes on Chiropractic By DR. HENRY L. FOLEY Little do we realize just how much our thoughts and actions are involved in our everyday happiness. We know that not all of life flows along like a song. It has its hurdles, its han d i c a p s. and dis ap pointm e n ts. It’s how we act when con fronted with 1i f e’s prob lems that de- termines character and builds our personality. Everything has its good and bad and we have to make the best of everything. You may have wished for peaches and cream and drew a lemon; yet you can still have lemonade. You may have visioned a palace for a home and find yourself in something less, but you can put so much love into the place in which you live that It will be brighter and hap pier than a mansion. Not everything in life turns out as you hoped it would. It might have been worse had it done so. If we don’t have the best in life, we can at least make the best of what we have. Keep your vision clear. Develop your personality for the thing you desire and perhaps your dream will come true. We see in things and peo ple, even God Himself, what we look for, nothing more. We can be filled with peace and happiness or bitterness and resentment, all depend ing largely upon our attitude toward life. You may say that the state of your health in a great measure determines your at titude toward life and your fellow beings, but here again, health comes from within not from without. When your thoughts are pure and your nerve channels are clear, the way to better health is made much easier.
