HE’LL HELP US REACH IT

Philippians 2:1-11

Imitating is the commonest act of life. Everything depends on whom and what we imitate. An example, true and winsome —this is the need. Jesus was just this. In his simplicity, his unselfishness, his purity, his earnestness, his devotion to his Father, his sympathy for men, he is the Example. Then he’s more; he gives power to follow the Example. Keep your eye on Jesus.

THE “DO” CREED

1John 3:14-24

We really believe just as much as we do; the rest is religious talk. We’re saved by faith in Jesus. And the real, simple article of faith, in good working order, controls the habits and hand and purse. Most of our brothers of all the world today are hungry, actually; and yet hungrier for the Bread of life. And we have it. And we can give it. Are we? Or, are we keeping most for ourselves?

THE PIERCED HAND

John 6:27-39

Jesus is God giving us everything we need. His creative hand gives life itself, and food, clothing, shelter, loved ones, and home for enjoying life. His pierced hand gives a clean heart, an obedient spirit, bodily health, a, strong purpose, and glad service for our fellows. No one can live without bread. And no one lives really to the full without Jesus, taken into his daily life as truly as food is taken into his body.

FROM HAND TO MOUTH

Exodus 16:14-24

Nobody likes to live from hand to mouth; it seems beggarly. These wilderness folk did. They couldn’t help themselves. There was no other way. When you sift down into the thing, so do we! Yes, we all live literally from hand to mouth. But then it’s God’s hand to oar mouths. If God cut us off for one day, where should we be! Think into it a bit. How grateful we should be for such a faithful God!

THE GET-SPIRIT

Mark 10:35-45

Most men spend most of their waking hours getting. So they provide bread and bed. But if this necessity gets into control, the spirit of a man’s life is getting. That means a dead sea. Every stream turns in. He may give; and yet the get-spirit be in control. Jesus, too. spent most of his human years getting, earning a livelihood; but the controlling spirit was to give, even to his life. We may be like him.
