Jesus Taught
True Worth
Of Giving
WHEN Saint Paul was leaving
" Miletus after having called
the elders of the Christian
Church at Ephesus to hear his
words of farewell before his last
visit to Jerusalem, he bade these
Christians to remember the
words of the Lord Jesus: “It is
more blessed to give than to re-
ceive.”
No words could express more
accurately the spirit of all that
Jesus had said and exemplified
in His life and death. Nor could
any words express more point-
edly the challenge of Jesus and
His teaching to the ideas and
actions of what He called “the
world.”
Getting and receiving is such
। a normal process of life and is so
| natural to happiness and welfare
that we might well ask whether
Jesus was right in declaring that
it is more blessed to give than to
receive.
We may ask, but there is only
one answer. And the answer is
found not only in some spiritual
blessedness that compensates for
the giving or renunciation of
some material possession or
treasured thing.
: Jesus offered men rest. “Come
unto me ... and I will give you
rest.”
| Yet rest is the one thing that
men, rich, poor, old, young, sick
or well, cannot do without. That
offer of rest by the Master was
supreme in its insight into hu-
man need.
So, in this matter of the bless-
ledness of giving in any large and
I spiritual reality, the assertion
that it is more blessed to give
than to receive is an extension
of much that is true in normal
living. The giving of parents to
their children, the giving by lov-
ers to loved ones, the innumer-
able acts of graciousness and
self-sacrifice in which men and
women find supreme satisfaction,
bear witness to the testimony of
Jesus.

— Wilson says that if military
officials are working on space
ships, he doesn’t know about it.
Trouble the Brass is having with
earthly problems seems to be out
