If one of us could, by some magic word, turn stones into bread, he would at once step into a class by himself. He would become a different order of being independent of his fellow-men. But according to God's way of getting bread, we all stand in the same breadline, all draw from the same bounty, all depend upon faithful toil, someone's toil, for our daily portion. Wherever unselfish service and kindly advance have been tried, the returns have been most bountiful. Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
Someone likens humanity to two hens fighting for a worm.
If they had put in their time scratching, the returns would have been far greater. Jesus believed in men to the limit. He believed that one man was worth more than a whole world full of things. Jesus did not so much launch a theory as to the importance of people, as He launched Himself into the center of human problems and relations. Jesus talked much of the kingdom of God on earth, the kingdom that He proposed to establish.
