lesson xii march 22 jesus teaches true values golden text seek ye first his kingdom and his righteousness and all these things shall be added un to you matthew 633 the lesson in its setting time all the events of this chap ter occurred in november and dec ember ad 2d place as far as can do determin ed the events of this chapter took place in peraea that area which was on the farther side of the jordan ri ver extending a considerable distance both above and along the shores ot the dead sea and he said unto ins disciples therefore i say unto you be not anx ious for your life what ye shall eat nor yet for your body what ye shall put on the verb here translated be anxious comes from a root meaning to bo drawn in different directions to divide and thus a person who is given to anxiety is one whoso strength ing safety devices for the people and their wares to be safe from each other men may in time have to build subterranean shelters every where 39 and attention are always divided the anxiety is defined as painful uneas iness of mind expecting an impend ing or anticipated event concern about some future or uncertain event for the life is more than the food and the body than the raiment this might bo called a summary of the teaching that our lord had just com pleted in his giving the parable ot the rich fool consider the ravens that they sow not neither reap which have no storechamber nor barn and god fcedoth them of how much more va lue are ye than the birds see job 3841 psalm 1179 he lid not mean to say that we are to sit down and expect god to feed us as he feeds the birds he said they sow not they reap not they have no storechamber md yet god foods themfl but we can sow and reap and have barns and we ought to sow and reap and have barns and if god cares for the birds who have no thought and rationality how much more will ho feed us to whom ho has given foresight and ra tionality and which of you by being anxious can add a cubit unto the measure of his life tlio revised version has greatly improved the reading of the last phrase of this verse not many people give anxious thought to the problem of adding to their statures but many persons do give thought to the prolongation of their allotted age and that by any amount great or small if then ye are not able to do even that which is least why are ye anx ious concerning the rest the mas ter often clinches some great argu ment with a penetrating question consider the liiies how they grow they toil not neither do they spin yet i say unto you even solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these for the glory of solomon see 1 kings 31 10129 but if god doth so eothe the grass in the field which today is and to morrow is cast into the oven how- much more shall he clothe you o ye of little faith in palestine wood be ing so exceedingly scarce grass was ften used for fuel and seek not ye what ye shall eat and what ye shall drink neither be ye of doubtful miud the phrase here translated doubtful mind is the translation of a word derived from an old verb meaning to reach up on high to be buoyed up and espec ially to bo tossed by a ship at sea to be anxious to be in doubt if you want to have as little pitch ing and tossing on your voyage as possible keep a good strong hand on the tiller that is to say have a def inite aim to which you steer and to keep a straight course for that for all these things do the nations of the world seek after but your fa ther knoweth that ye have need of these things our lord hero dis tinguishes between the believers to whom he was speaking who knew god as their father and the gentile nations about them who were wholly dependent upon themselves for the necessities of life yet seek ye his kingdom and these things shall be added

friendly discussion is a thing ef the past ap pointments come crowding in and the family group soon disperse it is a common weakness in all of us to paint the past with flattering colors we like to think of it as those good old days when life abounded in simple pleasures and the home was the seat of all activities it is tire there were fewer outside diversions on the other hand the diversions

long weeks of convalescence dining which time i waswith her constantly 1 read to her 1 talked with her played and improvised various games anil other ways of making the days seem less tedious naturally al my outside ac tivities were given up and i found to my amazement that i did not miss them greatly for i was finding a new satisfaction in exploring the mind of my child evidently she was having a similar reaction for one day she suddenly looked up at me and said say mom i never realized you were so much fun i guess i didnt know you very well before needless to say there is a real bond

would have and what a practical i way it would be to stimulate their ingenuity many other ways for keeping the family in closer touch would suggest themselves if parents would seriously i admit the
