PERSONAL BENEFIT OF
USE OF GOLDEN RULE
TOLD BY FLOOD AIDE
Words are wonderful only when
they have in them the essence of
truth or when the speaker ex-
presses what he is willing and
able to express in action also. To
"say, and do not" is either hypoc-
risy or idle words with no con-
viction or intention behind them.
In the magazine Your Life, Mon-
r)e Whitney calls the Golden Rule
"Words to Live By," and illus-
trates it with an example from
life today, as follows:
"Therefore all things whatso-
ever ye would that men should
do to you, do ye even so to them."
Nearly two thousand year ago
Jesus uttered these words in His
famous Sermon on the Mount. On
November 25, 1950--during the
worst storm of the year- an-
other young man tried putting
them into practice. And in so do-
ing, he not only helped several
who were standed, but found the
key to real happiness.
I met this Good Samaritan
when my automobile was stalled
in about two feet of water near
the Bronx-Whitestone bridge in
New York. My wife, who was re-
covering from a bad cold, was
terrified at the thought of leaving
the car. But there was no hope in
sight. Every one was so fearful
of being marooned himself that
he plowed through the flood at a
great rate. One woman even ac-
cased me of blocking traffic.
Just as we were on the point of
despair, a young man signaled
that he would push us. Then after
making certain that our ear would
start, he swung ,past and waved
a friendly greeting.
A little farther along we met
our friend again. He was standing
in water giving instructions to an
elderly couple: He was soaked to
the skin, so my wife uggested
that he join us at the next eating
place.
He took out only a few minutes
for a cup of coffee, but during
that time we learned he had help-
ed a score of motorists. When
we tried to express our apprecia-
tion. he said: "Doesn't the Bible
tell us we should do for others
what we'd want them to do for
us? Besides," he added with a
broad grin, "when you stop to
help others, it does something for
you inside."
As you and I travel along the
roads of life, how many oppor-
tunities we have to put Christ's
words into practice. Az we seiz-
ing them?
