BY A L T H E A S . M I L L E R A p r o p o s o f n o t h i n g , Mark looked at his mother and remarked, “When people see you and me togeth er they probably think, ‘That moth er is pretty old to have such a young son.’ But of course they don’t know we have so many older children and if Bob were alive, he’d be 26.” For some time the family “ caboose” has been quite concerned about Moth er’s age. He hopes she will live until he is ready for college because Moth er and son have plans to attend school together, please God. Mother wants to go on with further formal educa tion. Children view time without per spective. For them, time is largely just a “ now” — an immediate situation. It is not a commodity. When Althea Jr. saw “ D. V.” on a letter Mother had written, she thought the letters meant “ during vacation.” Her logic was good. The activities to which Mother attached “ D. V.” took place during the summer when children are on vacation from school. The fam ily was no little amused at her in terpretation. The young miss had a lesson in our desire for God’s will when she learned that D. V. is an abbreviation for the Latin “Deo vo- lente” meaning “God willing.” Time is a God-given gift which should be used wisely by those who love Him. Time, age, work, worth — what do these words really mean to us? As we stand on the threshhold of another year, we do well to ponder their import. Of what value is time in terms of age if the individual Chris tian’s work has no eternal worth? This world totters on the brink of dis aster. “ Brinkmanship” diplomacy is the order of the era. How much of the time and age allotted to us has been expended in work of worth? Someone has aptly said, “ All you can hold in your cold, dead hand is what you have given away.” It’s 1963. The world’s outlook is dark. But the Christian’s uplook is as bright as the promises of God. May God help us to resolve with the pur pose of Jesus Christ Himself, “My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work” (John 4:34).

BRAZIL'S 200,000 JEWS — A TREMENDOUS CHALLENGE
20,000 Hebrew-Portuguese bi-lingual New Testaments just off the press for use by our newly appointed mis sionary couple in Brazil, where Jewish hearts are open to hear the gospel. There are a million Jews in South America. Our 22 missionaries are reaching Jews in many lands. In Marseilles, France, we are working among the thou sands of Jews forced out of Algeria. Today's opportunity to evangelize the Jews is "some thing new under the sun." Write us for details of chal lenging projects for adoption by churches, Sunday Schools, Bible classes. This is the golden hour to win Jews to Christ. Dr. Jacob Cartenhaus, President
