177 help to mother who can tru st you to go to the store and do the buying, which is also a g ift to make you a good business man when you grow up. Now each one has a gift, and God wants us to use the gifts He has given us in the rig h t way. To help us learn this lesson Jesus told the story of a rich nobleman who went fa r away from home, and before leaving called ten of his servants and gave them a pound each, and told them to make good use of the money un til his return. Now of course th e servants did not know when the nobleman would retu rn . We do not know when Jesus will re tu rn , bu t He wants us to work for Him each day and use th e ta len ts He has given us. One day th e nobleman re tu rned home and called his servants together. The first one came and handed him the one pound w ith nine other pounds, making ten pounds in all. To this servant he said: “Well, thou good servant; because thou h ast been faith ful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.” The nobleman knew he could tru st th is man to ru le over the ten cities, because he had proven faith ful. Are we proving faith fu l so Jesu s can tru st us to do a g reater work for Him? (F inish the story, emphasizing th e fact th a t according to our faithful ness is th e rew ard.) The servant who did not use the pound to gain more is like people to, whom 'God has given a talen t, and who will not use it in work ing for Jeslus. If God has given us a voice we should use it to tell people of Jesus, ju st as R ichard did-, or to sing songs of praise. Let us always do as our memory verse tells us. “Be thou faith fu l.” d o s in g P rayer. Dear Lord Jesus, we th a n k Thee for our h ealth and strength, and may we be faith fu l in telling others of Thee as Saviour.
THE K I N G ' S B U S I N E S S who,will not subm it to Christ the Cruci fied will be crushed by Christ th e King. Meekly now He stands a t the door and knocks. Then He comes as the ligh t ning comes.t—Arnot. W orking fo r Jesus. Luke 19:11-26. Memory Verse.— “Be thou faith fu l.” Rev. 2:10. Approach.— Ju st because we are little folks, we sometimes th ink th ere is not much we can do for Jesus. Now listen and I will tell you a tru e story about a little boy who lives BEGINNERS rig h t n ear my home. AND PRIMARY This little boy’s Mabel L. M errill name is R ichard and he loves Jesus, and one day he went out in the neighbor hood to invite the boys and girls and th e parents to Sunday School and church. He came to one home, and when the woman of the house opened th e door, she did no t look very happy, and told R ichard she did not w ant to go to church, and did not care anything about it. Now some of us would have failed here, bu t R ichard carried a little gospel of John in his pocket, ana’ he handed it to th e woman, and asked h er to read it if she would not come to church and h ear th e m inister read it. A fter Rich ard went away, th is woman did read th e gospel, and went to the church, and to day she loves Jesus and the church, and is a member of th e church. R ichard worked for Jesus. Lesson Story.— In our beautiful story last week we saw w hat a g reat change came into Zaccheus, when Jesus came into his heart, so th is is a good tim e to sing our song, “ Since Jesus came into My H eart.” A fter Zaccheus knew Jesus as his Saviour, he wanted to do some thing to help, and o u r story today is about working for Jesus. . As you were singing I noticed what a splendid voice some have, which is a gift of God. O thers have a well, strong body, an other wonderful g ift of God. O thers are quick to understand, and are a great
