Living For An Idea
Tho closing of tho sorvico
of ono of our local ministers
BUgostH a thought upon"tho
foolishiroSH of preaching"
as SI. Paul characterizes it.
iloro is a man moved by
considerations that most of
us do not feel mid lo whom
most of our daily anxieties
and struggles do not appeal.
A high place in tho com-
munity oHlce power except
to Bervo his cause and
mouoy these things woigh
as little with him as may
bo. With his natural energy
ho might of been wealthy had
he not willfully excluded
everything that would tako
his time from tho advance-
ment of tho Great Idea. And
now with his lifo half dono
and his best years passing
lio is so littlo concorned to
follow tho advico of the Sugo
of Avon"L'ut money in thoy
purse" as amounts almost
to a sin in tho oyes of thoso
who are moro practical.
Manj a reader of this para-
graph will in hisorhor heart
perhaps unconsciously con-
dom such a wasto of a lifo
"for tho preaching of tho
cross is to them that perish
foolishness."
But history so far as wo
know it is simply a record
of tho work of thoso who
lived lor ideas and who
wrought out these ideas
other people not being worth
while. For putting in a
lifotimo at monoy-gotting
monoy-sponding wearing
clothes playing politics
scientific research or "tho
foolishness or preaching" is
after all living for an idea
sordid or ennobling as it
may be. And we also have
the aimless who aro always
the ? tuft less and tho hope-
less these the dirolicts in
in this shoroless sea of Time.
Tho man who lives for an
idea gets somewhither in
proportion as ho devotes
himself to it. And ho has
always that highest satisfac-
tion of doing his best in
what appears to him most
worth while find tho com-
forting hope of growing up
to his Uoward.
I 'f these truly may it bo
said in tho words of Lamp-
son "Not to. be overcome by those head-
lonjj days
Cut to stand f ree to keep tho mind at
brood
Cn Life's doep moaning Nature's al-
titude Of loveliness and Time's mysterious
ways;
At cvory thought and deed to clear tho
haae
Out uf tho eyou considering only this I
What life what man what love what
duty is
This it is to live and win the final
praise.
Whon strife misfortune and harsh
human needs
Strike down the soul at moments weak
and dumb
With agony yet patience there- shall
come
Mary great moments from life's outer
8ca
Hours of strange triumph a id v. hen no
man heeds
Murm irs and glimpses of eternity.
