He should say his prayers and as to whether we are as helpless in the spiritual realm read his Bible and attend church and make his com as we seem to be in the economic world. Many years munions as a matter of obligation.

My suggestion is that a layman should fit him most young men in Judaea, had his own way of mak self to do some particular line of service freely given ing a living and took on his evangelistic work with to the Master.

It need not be any great thing but it ministry, and laymen wait for the Church to furnish should be something to which he gives himself with all such spiritual employment as they are willing to do. his soul. This system of dependence has destroyed the individual initiative which is the source of unusual endeavor. I H E R E are three things in which we can lose our am not so Utopian as to argue for a self-supporting T selves and grow in the process. They are work, ministry, although if such a thing were possible I be love and worship.

Don’t pooh-pooh this if you never tried it. than he could have earned in any other line with the Our family and circle of friends ought to give us same amount of effort. What the Lord is looking for, plenty of exercise of the affections and if a man and I imagine, is a different kind of response to His call, wife are happily mated, and live for their children in and that is spontaneous work for which the worker ex stead of for their own pleasures, they will learn the pects no other reward than the Master’s approval.
