We would like to invite Gary's friends and associates to come and discuss their transportation requi ments with him. fiable to say of such a person: “You asked for it.” But it is much more difficult to accept the fact that many good people suf- fer. Good people are crippled or killed through accidents. Cancer strikes good people; heartache and even heart- break come to many a good person. When this happens, there are those who immediately come to the conclusion that the “good person” must not have been so good after all. (Read the book of Job in the Old Testament). Even in Jesus's day, the common belief was that all suffering was the direct re- sult of sin, either in the life of the individual or in the life of the parents. Christ's disciples, seeing a man blind from birth, asked him, “Master, why was this man born blind? Was it the result of his own sins or those of his parents?” “Neither,” Jesus answer- ed. “But to demonstrate the power of God.” In this case, Jesus healed the blind man. (John 9:1-41) Down through the centur- ies to the very present, there have been mai livered and seemingly impossible sit- uations, in answer to the prayers of faith. The Bible encourages us to pray for needs great and small. (James 5:13-16). But God does not always answer our prayers in the way we think is best. The Apostle Paul prayed earn- estly, not only once but at 1 least three times, for relief (healing?) from a certain af. fliction he had. (2 Corinthians 12:7-10) Paul's conclusion about his own suffering is summed up in verse 10 of the above passage: “Since I know it is for Christ's good, I am quite happy about the ‘thorn’ and about the insults and hard- ships, persecutions and dif ficulties; for when I am weak, then am I strong .. . the less I have, the more I depend on him.” (L.B.) Dale Oldham, in his book How to Grow Spiritually makes this observation: “What a difference there is in the way people face trouble! Some curse, rant and rave about being treated unjustly; or protest that God doesn't love them, that He refused to hear their prayer. God ownes me nothing .. . yet I will be unable to face t) as I should unless His lov¢ abides in my heart, and tl isa firm faith in my soul.’\ Bring your suffering to God and seek His help, either in removing it or in sus- taining you through it; but do not lose faith in God and in people. Here is one final ob- servation from Dale Oldham. “God bribes no man to serve him by promising im- munity from trouble... We are not hirelings, bartering with God, promising so much service for so much grace or so much protection. We are sons and heirs of God, princes of the royal blood; but al- though this divine nobility is in our veins, the time will come when we too, shall suf- fer as others have suffered. “Yet, in Christ there is strength for each day, power to endure, courage to be true, and even dying grace.” May we develop that kind of trust KAD ASTRA ers Daily Flight Service to * Cranbrook * Penticton * Kelowne 365-7701 MR.
