Golden Text: Luke 10: 2. It is significant that early in his ministry Jesus sent out 70 disicples to prepare the way for lim in places where he should go. This was a provision for an organized campaign to reach in- ;o yet other regions of need. Like some armies, but in a right way, these messengers were to live on the country,” depending entirely upon the generosity of the people among whom they were sent. “The laborer is worthy of bis hire.” Their work was urgent and they were not to waste time in needless things. Their efforts were successful. “They returned with joy saying, Lord, even the demons are subject unto us in thy name.” . We read that Jesus rejoiced and thanked God that the great things of Ufe, which wise men had fail ed to gain, had been revealed unto babes. It is a blessed thing that God’s revelation, is not limited by the imperfections of men. All can receive the good tidings of God’s love and be blessed. Jesus further rejoiced that all things had been delivered unto him of his Father and that the triumph of righteousness could be foreseen. Then, turning to the disciples, he declared that they were blessed in the things they were permitted to see and hear. Let us realize how greatly we are blessed today and consecrate ourselves anew to the work of pre paring the way for Jesus in this tragic generation, that we may share in the blessings of the dis ciples. “The harvest truly is plen teous, but the laborers are few;” let us pray the Lord of the har- /est to send forth laborers—in cluding ourselves. —Buy Defense Bonds— ORDER NUMBERS, SERIAL NUMBERS.
