WEEKLY SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
JESUS TEACHES TRUE VALUES
By HIGHT c. MOORE

| raven? "a Trust him for the
proper luxuries of life. Since we
are so concerned about the style
and texture of our clothing be-
yond what is actually necessary,
we should learn carefully lesson
from the lily, Haunting its white
or purple petals in the fields. 1t
does not toll like man in produc-
ing raw material, nor does il spin
like woman in manufacturing fine
linen; yet il has a glory surpass-
ing even the splendor of Solo
mons court. And remember that
the lily which God paints with
. such beauty is a tiny, frail, and
transient thing, blooming in glory
today but tomorrow withered,
dead, dried, and cast as fuel into
the oven for speedy preparation
Of the evening meal. Why should
we be anxious when We have such
Father? ~ Trust him to supply
every need. He knows the need
and will supply it out of his boun-
ty in the way that is best forus.
Contrast the seeking, struggling
bond slaves of the world who sell
dom get what they work for and
are never content with their
wages.
SPIRITUAL VALUES:
luke ~: 29-31.)
SEEK THE KINGDOM. In
brief: % Live the seeking life.
Edleness is worse than worry, The
Gentiles are wrong not in seeking
but in seeking the wrong things.
Therefore seek with every strand
of strength. Seek personally, for
this duty cnnnot be shifted to
others. Seek first what belongs
first. Place highest what ought to
be highest. That means the reign
of God in the heart and all over
the world. That means that the
righteousness of God is to be fix
ed in our hearts and fruitful in
our lives. (2) Live the symmetri-
cal life. There is a place for ma
; terial things, bat it is secondary,
All these things necessary not on
ly for our personal upkeep, but
also for our efficiency, will be
added to us as we can appropriate
and utilize them. Such life is
not lopsided. All things, whether
of mind and heart or OF money
and position, are in their proper
place. t3) Live the serene life.
Without narrowing trouble from
yesterday or toldorrow, invest all
resources in the work of today.
Then one can be not only content
for today but content for ;omOr-
row. (4) Live the sufficient life.
We ought to be ready with full
strength for each day with its
temptation to be resisted or trial
| to be endured Or task to be per
| formed. Thus, we can let our light
shine to the glory of our Father
who is in heaven.
SERVICE VALUES:
.Luke II 32-34.l
DO GOOD. The life that is de-
voted to doing good is o. un-
troubled. The flock, though little,
need not fear, for the Heavenly
Father will even now give food
and raiment and also in due time
| his eternal kingdom. ~ The
good life will be unselfish. Let
the Apostls and all who engage
exclusively in religious work give
themselves and what they have
with no thought of greed or graft.
Nor let any Christian be covetous.
90 The good life will be unfail-
ing. Good deeds for Gods glory
are somehow carried in purses
that never age and deposited in
celestial vaults that never fail.
ca The good life will be undivid-
ed. If on earth we make our in
vestments in heaven, then the
heart and the treasure are blend
ed and blest both in this life and
in that which is to come.
TRUE VALUES
ca The Value Of Life. Can
anything be as precious as life?
Keep that, and all else may be
added. Lose that, and all else is
