Even now he endures a heart­ ache that would make a lesser man run or give up, yet he con­ tinues to follow his calling. How proud I am, not only of him, but of countless ministers of the Gospel the world over who, not satisfied with quitting, search and seek God’s direction with steadfastness! How pleased and touched the heart of God must be when He looks and finds men, real men, who in the midst of this weeping valley of death, discouragement and heartache are willing to con­ tinue in the ministry and make their home, church and commu­ nity a place, as the Psalmist said, “of springs” and going “from strength to strength increasing in victorious power.” How proud I am to be Dad’s daughter! I pray I’ll remember to be grateful for his faithfulness to his Lord’s call! MINISTER Here it is . . . Saturday night. Wonder what everyone’s do­ ing? Me? I ’m waiting for another wedding party to arrive. Sermon’s all done . . . (Been working on it all week) Bulletin is printed. (Secretary has worked too). I ’m trying to relax a little . . . store up my strength . . . physical and spiritual for to­ morrow. Wonder how many will come to church? A terrible responsibility . . . (trying to speak of God) Sometimes on Saturday night I want to run. But I pray . . . and sweat a little too (or is perspire nicer?) thinking about Sunday. What about you? Do you ever think about Sun­ day? —A rt M organ

So little effort on your part... So much depends on it for me!

War, poverty, prejudice, famine, disease, brutality. These are words that mean little to us. But to helpless, hapless children like San Joo they describe the daily experience of life. COMPASSION believes that Christian America cares about homeless, needy children in Korea, Indonesia, India and Haiti. COMPASSION believes that you are concerned enough about the plight of these unfortunate children to “put your name inside the heart." In COMPASSION Homes nearly 20,000 children find genuine love, and tender care. At first, love to them may mean only food, a warm bed, clothing, medical care, school, a chance to play with other children— to laugh and be happy for the first time in their lives. But soon they learn that behind this unbelievable provision of life's necessities there is the unselfishness of another human being. You. And love becomes a person. The child you sponsor knows you by name — is taught to relate your generosity to the goodness of Cod. Your child prays for you— with thanksgiving. Letters and pictures are exchanged. A warm personal relationship develops. And you can begin this thrilling sponsorship experience today. It takes just $12 a month ... less than your utility bill! So little effort on your part; so much joy for a boy or girl awaiting your response. Just a moment of your time now— a tiny bit of help each month— and my life is made whole. Isn't that what love is made of?
