"Stewardship cf Life"
Mark 1:16-20; A:ts 26:12-19.
Stewardship of money, time and
talent is a reguisite to a Christian
life; but more important is steward-
snip of life. A fully consecrated life
I to the Lcrd Jesus Christ includes the i a
former. Stewardship of life, in the
wider sense, means to invest life it
self in the service of the Master.
ror example, we take Moses, that j
unparalleled leader, when he receiv
ed his call, he realized the stupen
dous work before him, but when God
told him that His presence would go
with him, he left all and gave his
life all Le had to that great work
of building a nation.
The world's needs can only be
met by life. It is through giving of
his life that the Lord Jesus has
blessed the world. We must follow in
his train if we would be channels of
blessing to humanity.
Another cf the great men from
Gcd's gallery of fame is Isaiah. Moses
received his call in the open at the
burning bush, while Isaiah received
his call in the seculsion of the tem
ple. It was an overwhelming vision
seeing the Lord sitting on a throne.
Beholding the surroundings; hearing
the heavenly host in their praise, he
realized that he W2s unfit for such
company, , and in the agony of his
ecuI, he cried cut: "Wee is me! for I
am undone; because I am a man of
unclean lips, and dwell in the midst
of a people cf unclean lips; .'for mine
eyes have seen the King, the Lord of
Lents." (Isa. C:7.)
I:ut God has a remedy ready at
rl.r.nd. "Before they cry, I will an
rv.er." A ministering spirit is ready
to app'y the remedy. After cenfess
irg his sin, he is absolved. Fire, the
fyir.hcl of purification. (Mai. 3:2;
liat. 3:11). So prepared, he receives
3. is mtssnge. Surely no cne would
care go without the divine call and
iV.n annointing of the Holy Ghost.
Iaiah fTve his life to the service of
Jehovah.
Another picture shows us the call
x f four fishermen for life service,
f lncn and Andrew are disciplc3 of
Jesus, but thi3 tali is for apostleship.
There men were called from their
v.crk; he car.not use idle or lazy men
i-i hie vineyard. James and John re
ceived their call at the same time. All
cf them did net change their occupa
tion, but enly their tools. These men
h'-.cv.- four ways cf fishing (a) hook
rr.d line (Math. 17:27); (b) hand
tct (Mark 1:16); (c) the bag net
frr deep sea fishing (Luke 5:4) and-lme,
(J) the drag net (Math. 13:47).
Fishing in this connection means
" o catch alive;" draw out from self
ar.d sin into the fellowship of God's
reoplo and eventually be fitted for
their mansions in heaven.
These four men invested their life,
for sale at the Thanksgiving day ser
vices and dinner.

and Mr. and Mrs. Lon Crosser, where
all enjoyed a very fine time.

and their reward was a martyr's
crown, except John, who died a nat
ural death.
The greatest character, that in
vested his life for God is the match-
less, tireless, most successful mission-
:ry, St.
Paul. Three accounts of
Paul's call are recorded Acts 9, 22,
2C. Trained for a politic-religious
career, with all promise of a success-
f-ji ufs. That was the kind of a man
God could use if converted. The
Lord had a hard time to get this
proud Pharisee to yield and come un
der the yoke of Jesus Christ; the
suffering of Stephen could not move
him; the pleading of men iand wom
en whom he punished and caused to
blaspheme, had no effect on him; but
Good needed just such a character
one who would persist and carry a
matter through to success. It took
one mightier than Paul to subdue him
and make him yield and consecrate
his life to the King of Kings.
Arrested on the way to Damascus
in his mad career struck with blind
ness, he finds time to think, to con
sider. Three days in solitude, taking
invoice, and by the help and grace of
God, the hard heart softens, the peni
tential tears flow, and behold "he
prayeth;" he is ready to take the
yoke.
But more is necessary before he
can be the invincible ambassador of
Christ; it is the infilling of the Holy
Ghost. This scholarly young Jewish
elder, who could persuade seventy
members ana the high priest to give
him unlimited authority to persecute,
rays later: "Though I speak with the
tongue of men and of angels, but have
r.ct love, I am a blaring trumpet or
a clanking cymbal." Weymouth.
Paul testifies that he has a stew
ardship intrusted unto him: "For ne
cessity is laid upon me." I Cor., 9:16.
And this stewardship he could not es
cape any more than yen and I can es
cape our obligations to God. A life
so fully devoted and consecrated i3
enabled to endure and be spent in
His service. (Please read Paul's rec
ord in suffering, II Cor. 11:21-33).
"Who can measure the extent cf the
life of this "chosen vessel?" He
could say of himself: "I labcreth
more abundantly than all." I Cor. 15:
1G, and again he repeats: "In labors
more abundantly." II Cor. 11:23.
Here read another record cf what
Paul gave up that his life might Le a
complete sacrifice for. Christ. Phil. 3:
3-8. "But what thirg3 were gain to
these I counted loss for Christ."
A life spent in the service for God
has a sure and rich reward. At the
eve of his martyrsdom, Paul can say,
locking, back on a life well spent: "I
have fought a good fight ... hence
forth there is laid up for rae a crown
of righteousness." (II Tim. 4:6-8)
Mr. and Mrs. George E. Nickles
and Mrs. Henry C. Long were over to
Omaha last Sunday, where they vis
ited with Mrs. Bertha Shrader, who
was injured by being run down by
an auto a month or more since. They
found her getting along quite well
and feeling hopeful of being able to
leave the hospital soon.
Mrs. E. TV. Milbern and the kiddies
were over to Plattsmouth last Sat
urday, Turkej' day, and enjoyed wit
nessing the chase for the Thanks
giving prizes, turkeys and chickens,
as they were released to go to who
ever caught them. Twenty turkeys
were released and more than double
that number of chickens. They say it
was a great deal of fun watching the
people scramble for the birds.

Eetumed from the West
Alfred Brandt and family, who
went to the western part of the state i
to work in the beet fields and during j
the latter part cf the season, picked
potatoes near Hemingford, have re
turned to Murray to pick corn. They
made fair money while gathering po
tatoes, but upon completing their
work found that the owners of the
spuds could not dispose of them and

so Mr. Brandt and family have lost
much of their pay, bin are hoping a
market will yet be found for the pro
duct of their labors, so they can get
the money due them.
