EVERYDAY
COUNSELOR |
By Dr. Herbert Spa orb
,
If you aren’t something of ai
philosopher you are in for a harcU
time in life. I’ve just been thumb- ,
ing through a 25year-o!d book, J
*‘R You Listenin,?” by Tony
Wons, who, for a long time was
one of radio’s popular philoso
phers. Although written a num
ber of years ago, its philosojihy
is just as goqd today, and how
modem it sounds.
“How we lose our sense of val
ues! If we want an automobile
we don’t think anything of spend
ing a thousand dollars for it (now
it is two or three thousand) and
mortgaging our future, besides
. . But if a very dear friend
asks us for a lo&n of a few dol
lars we are likely to get a sickly
feeling in our stomach and we
begin to wonder if it isn’t best
to break off relations with our
friend. So we value a heap of
iron iOr a stone above the heart
of a friend.’’
He quotes these lines by
Charles A. Branham: “Life is like
a journey taken on a train, with
a pair of tracvelers at each win
dow pane. I may sit beside you
all the journey through. Or I
may sit elsewhere, never knowing
you. But if fate should mark me
to sit by your side, lets’ be pleas
ant travelers—it’s too short a
ride!” He comments that life is so
much like a journey taken on a
train and “it’s such a short ride!”
We don’t any of us know just
what kind of ride it is going to
be, but each of us can do a lot
to make life pleasant or disagree
able—both for ourselves and for
our fellow travelers.
He goes on to remind us that
success or failure in life is not de
termined entirely by cincum
stances outside of ourselves. “The
truth of the matter is -that your
circumstances, your surroundings,
your chances, are largely depend
ent upon what you are, yourself,
inside.”
So it is. The good Lord plan
ned for us to have wonderful
things. In His book we read. “Eye
hath not seen, nor ear heard,
neither have entered into the
heart of man, the things which
God hath prepared for them that
love Him.” We don’t have to wait
for these wonderful things until
we reach the life beyond. They
are being distributed down here
to those who kndw how to love
their Lord and fellowman. But
the distribution of these blesings
is laregly put in the hands of
men. As we have at our disposal
means of making others happy, so
we also have means of making
them unhappy. We can make our
fellowman comfortable and hap
py, or very uncomfortable and
unhappy. It all depends upon
what we give them.
For some of us the end of that!
journey is nearer than we real
ize. But if you can read ..this,
there is still time for you to dis
tribute some happiness, some of
God’s blessings to another fellow
man. You could go to the tele
phone and do something about it
right now. You could write a!
letter right now. You could put
this paper down to say something
kind, loving, and helpful to the
one who is sitting by you.
Well, what are you going to do?
/ MIK!
