A dear friend recently celebrated his 75th birthday. We do have those moments when in gratitude to God and to neighbor a special feeling of generosity sweeps over us. Others of us sometimes want direction for our charitable urges. Another friend, the chief chemical engineer for General Electric, came to talk with me about our numerous church offerings. He was a very religious man in all his living.
