Paul draws us a picture here of a man who has been fighting with the 11 cestus and who, full of honors and - glory, with the laurels of victory on i, his brow, lays down his Instruments t of hostility. He pictures a runner e who has gone the course, who has run the race and Iras won, and who has received the palm of victory. He 8 depicts a man who In the affairs of - the spiritual life has been true to i, his Maker and his Qod and Is upon t the threshold of entering Into the vlc. tory of the life eternal. This assertion of Paul that he has fought a good fight, has finished the ? course, has kept the faith, is the as1 surance of a man who was successful s in all that to which he laid his hands, f Paul was a man who had attained. s who had reached his reward, who had gained success. He had put into effect certain plans that he had for the ordering of his own life and the - *i? ?-? - ujvuv ui nit' uieu ana women 1 with whom he had come In contact. - He had executed arrangements for the preaching of the blessed news of Jesus Christ, and he had his eyes fixed not so much on what he had accomplished as upon the victory which he had achieved, upon the t. crown which was awaiting him when I he should go Into the presence of the * Lord his God. ! St. Paul was a man who accom.. pllshed. He not only put .tasks in 0 motion; he fulfilled them. He was a man who achieved much. In a world where so many of us do things II in a small way, he did things mightily and lnsplringly. He was a man whose achievements were like unto the mighty victories won by Christ. ' 1 This success of Paul is the ideal of i every man and every woman. This i victory and success which crowned his efforts is the desire of every hu- j ! man heart that Is normal. There is , , not one of us but has dreamed of f mighty things, but has longed for ability and power to accomplish great things for God and man; none of us but who. in our youth, and perhaps * In later days, has reached unto greater things than any we have yet acu complished, for this power of Paul . to execute and effect. TK1- a- - <? * - lum auniLjr iu aaeci tne wnole e history of the lives of the men with d whom he comes in contact is the dei sire and the ideal of every human soul. But our great queatlon Is, how shall we achieve? how shall we accomDllsh that to which we lay our hands? how shall we execute the task - which under God is given us to do? How snail we attain, how shall we | achieve, each in our peculiar sphere, according to our peculiar ability, that we may do something either small or * great for the weal of men and for the glorious peopling of the kingdom - of Jesus Christ? "I It seems to me that there are four 'J elements that enter into success, four = things that are necessary that we shall be able to do a work for God t* that shall count, a work that shall amount to something for the weal of > men, for .the betterment of lives about us, for the satisfaction of our - own Ideals. g A man cannot do very much unless m first of all he has some self-appreciate tlon. That is not to say he should L have egotism; that Is not to say that u he disdains others, not that he ? weighs himself in the scales to the 5 disparagement of other men; but it Is to say that he has nlaerd htmspif 5 objectively ever against his own per0 Bonality and has sized himself up so that he has a first-class and first hand idea of his own ability. It is a good thing to have an appreciation of our own abilities, a better to have _ a comprehension of our own limitations; but, while it is a good thing to know our own limitations, I am a profound believer that we know .too 1 many times the extent of our limitaj tions and not of our abilities. We ! seem to think that what other men j have done we cannot do; that what t men of equal brains and ability have Y done we cannot do; wo are afraid t to lay our hands to the work of God j because we fear perchance we cannot y do that to which we have laid our 1 hand. To many a man the appreciaj tion of his own divine power is in e the terms of limitation rather .than r in the terms of real ability. How t many men we meet will tell us what ? they cannot do, who would do thus or so if they were able; who are so ' taken up with the consideration of ? those things which God hath not L given them the ability to do that they forget the potentialities divine and eternal which God hath placed within n their own grasps and personalities. St. Paul was a man who had measured his abilities and knew what he b could do, who had no mean apprecia? tion of what he could do. When he ^ met Jesus face to face there was no hesitation as to whether he was a 1] man who was divinely called, as to whether he was the man who was called to do the work. The knowl edge that God had called him was " sufficient knowledge that he had the ability, that he was of some worth 1 for the bringing of the good news of the Gospel to those who were in sin. t Paul was a man who had some appreciation of himself, he knew what he should do and the way he should do it. k We do not have direction. We ? beat against the wind, we waste our h time with futile beatings against the air, we spread ourselves out too thin. ? How many men there are who have y not achieved because tbey have tried i- too many tblngs, who have not had enough self-appreciation to know wherein their abilities He strongest. As ml ?u a man who gave the right emphasis to his life; so, con trarlwlse, there are men in the world who with mediocre abilities have not had the sense to see the leadings of 1 their own powers, the guidance of Providence la their own lives, who s have laid the emphasis in the wrong r place and given their whole time and . r?iM th*r wm never lit ted. ' see that all over tha world; mm tha pulpit who outfit to ho at plow, man plowing the fields i ought to bo proclaiming the Qm of Christ, men who aro out of pi In the great mechanism of God's e nal plan, men who hare never come fitted for and hare never got into their proper places, who h never reached the point at wl their energies should be applied have never seen the guidance of < In their lives. I believe the secret the success of every man who Influenced the world Is to be fount the emphasis which he laid u that which he was able to do. Cal for serious things, he did not attei to be the buffoon. Summoned bring men to the knowledge of glorious Gospel of Christ, he did attempt to be a jester for a frle Bidden enliven life for those aroi him by the appreciation of the thl which are bumorouB. he would st to that one thing, and that aloue i In that would achieve success. 1 and I might never have heard Martin Luther unless he had pla the emphasis aright. We mi never have heard of Jesus Chris' He had taken the taunts of the < cers and those in high places and 1 given all that was best in Him c to their whim and will, if He 1 subverted H1b holy power beca they laughed Him to scorn, beca they informed Him that He was sc dalouslv wrong when He claimed be the Son of God. We might ne have heard of Him unless He 1 placed the emphasis of His wli life correctly. It is a rule in the law of mechai that a man to achieve success m direct his power to the right pli There is only one place where he achieve most by the application power, and that is where the po needs most to be applied. And if we are to run our course and herit a crown, we must first of find put what our abilities are i then lay our efforts where God le us. While there are many men have appreciation of .their own abi and have measurable success in ] lng their abilities in the line of 1< resistance, there have been men t have not accomplished anything cause they had no tenacity, who w so anxious for attainment all at o that they would constantly s -V *? uiciuaeivfB ana lose meir direct! In the daslre to accomplish m things they have never accomplis anything at all. A man may appreciate his < powers and size himself up well; may direct his powers in the rl way and be tenacious, but unless has a clean heart and a conscie undeflled before God and man cannot accomplish much in i world. One of the worst things v which we have to deal is an accus conscience, a soul which is constai calling unto us that we are ham] ing it. We cannot accomplish m if we are hampering our s( against the achievement which mj be ours. A clean heart fits a man life's labors; it is a mighty po\ No man can do the work which ( hath given unto him to do save his own life is pure in God's sight the sight of his neighbor and in own eyes. Many a man who ml have done something has done n< ing because, first of all, he has stv fled and strangled his soul, beca he has forgotten that the secret ol success unto good work is a ha heart. A happy heart cannot c< save as a man is right before God These are the elements which derlle the life of Jesus Christ and Paul. As they underlie these lives, they spell success for you me.
