Life of Action

T'HE Gospel by Mark. reliable
L tradition claims, actually comes
from Simon Peter During Peter S
missionary travels he used to speak
often about the life and work of
Jesus, and young John Mark would
take down notes Of what he said.
Then later Mark worked up into a
connected gospel many of those
story-sermons. 1t is easy to believe
the tradition, because this gospel
sounds so much ike what would
appeal to Peter, a man Of action.
At any rate, il Mark we have
very little said about Jesus
teaching, a great deal said about
what he did. Jesus does not have
a spare minute, not a day Off.
What about the rest Of US? Sup
pose some biographer were to write
up you who read these lines. Sup
pose he could use in his story only
your actions, not your words or
ideas Would there be enough ma
terial for him to write q book?

Words of Power

T7HILE Mark almost never tells
w us what Jesus taught, he does
tell US that Jesus was a teacher. IN
describing the synagogue-service in
Capernaum Mark tells us the peO-
pie were astonished, and even two
demon-ridden men were struck
down with terror.
What Jesus said that aston
ished the people and alarmed
the dem0niacs we do not know.
Possibly Peter, who was there,
may have been too busy watch
ing peoples faces to hear what
Jesus was saying. However that
may be, Jesus is here introduced
to us not only as 4 deer but as
a thinker and teacher.
Life is not all action; it is also
thought. Jesus acts were full Of
power; so and not less SO were his
ideas, words, teachings. Look at
the rest of us again We may be
full of talk, but how much power
is there in our ideas?

StraightWay

ONE word is found many times
~ in Marks stories of Jesus:
"Straightway' as the older versions
have it,-that is, Immediately. 1t
is not just Marks style. 1t is his
way of bringing out something i'm
portant about Jesus life and habits.
There were no blank spaces,
no pages unwritten, no empty
gaps, no waiting around, in
Jesus life. In his life one ac-
tiyity followed on the heels of
another. He mad no time to
waste, and he wasted none.
Let the honest reader try to make
a realistic budget of his time. At
the beginning of a week let him draw
up a kind of chart showing how he
expects to spend his 16 waking
hours each day.--so much for work,
recreation, study and so forth. Then
at the end Of the week let him ask
himself: Where did my time go?
He will often have to admit that he
did not really live the whole day.
any day,-Only parts Of it. Living as
a Christian means living ones full
time, living one Of those Is hours a
day
