And it majority, ; I Come Ihrough Christ will be accompanied by a . worldwide acknowledgment and worship of God, as today's les- son points out. The first three chapters of the book of Micah consist primar- ily. of his denunciation of Ju- dah for her social sins of weal-- thy nobles. worldly priests and greedy aristocrats. But, Micah prophesies, in the latter days all nations and peoples will vo'- untarily come to the house of God to learn the way and will of God. and a powerful, univer- sal proclamation of the Word or the Lord will bring about a true. ‘, abiding peace. As a result. the world will have a security it has never known before. The third verse of this pass- age (Micah 421-5) is a favorite with many enthusiasts for hu- man schemes for world peace. Olver e hea sermons preached from this pas- sage, encouraging us to enter vigorously into various human- ly conceived schemes. Natural- ly each of us should do what we can for peace; but the universal peace promised here will come only when its conditions are met. Jesus, Himself, repeats this in the passage taken from Mat thew's account of Jesus’ betray al in the Garden of Gethsemane Christ emphasizes that His ar- rest and coming condemnation are part of God's plan, and Fe- ter should not try to alter it through the use of his sword. In its own right the sword may be used to defend nations against oppression, or to pre- they can achieve it.—Romano Patti writes to Timothy stressing pray- ers ilor kings and bring God's blessings on the nation as a whole—Timth 2:1, 2. rulers in order to vent confusion, plunder and ra- pine upon the earth. But it can- not be used in the propagation and maintenance of the Gospel. Christianity is not to be enforc- ed by bloodshed, and Christian lief cannot be extorted by force. In the chapter from his lat ter to the Roman Christians as- signed to today’s lesson. Paul defines the rules of conduct which they -— and we —— must observe as Christian members of human socie We should ask God‘s bless- ings on those who persecute us for when we bless our persecu- tors, we are, unable to curse them. To rejoice with the joyful and have sympathy for the sorrow- ful is a universal and uncondi tional command; not a matter of taste or sentiment, but of conscience. We should live In harmony with our fellow Christians, for this spirit can co-exist despite . What. a shot! Photographers love to find a scene like this. Flowing water . . . a background of trees . . . a church spire in the distance . . . these always make an outstanding picture. Wherever we travel we see Christian churches in harmonious settings, and there’s a tendency to think of them as "part of the scenery." But what an important part they are! Every one is a House of God, dedicated to His service. Every one you comfort“ as. is a. community focal point, helping in a thousand ways to broaden and beautify the lives of its members. And every one is a vital link in the shining chain of Christian belief that stretches around the world. Not far from where you live, there’s a church that could give your life a new dimension.

As far as possible we should iive peaceably with all men inn eluding unbelievers as a society. We should not attempt ven gence upon those who have in jured us. for God will exact jus- tice from wrong-doers. We should try to win our one mies with kindness. for th u s vengence becomes a victory or love. We are to resist evil and seek to overcome it with good, both a warning and an admonition. Paul’s final rule for Christian conduct, in I Timothy 2:1,2. brings us back to the subject of world peace. Here we are to to pray for all men and espec ially for kings and those in high places, that our lives might be tranquil, quiet, godly and re Yverential. Prayer for the rulers of a na- tion begets a desire to do only those things which will bring God’s blessings upon the nation as a whole. Claim Amish V Fathers Break School Laws CAMDEN.

Needed By By CARDINAL McGUIGAN In answer to a questionnabe on the subject of spiritual direc- tion. a woman recently wrote; “Lay people have to become holy and should strive for per- fection as much as a religious. “In fact, the problems of a lay person’s life are so com- plex, he has a special need for a spiritual director. Otherwise religion can continue to be a separate and unlntegrated part of this life and a mediocre one at the ." A man write that one needs a spiritual director “to help him stand back and look at the crowded scene of everyday life through God's eyes." In the question of the choice of a director there must be great latitude. The need for clergymen schooled in the spit- itual life is great who at the same time have an understand- ing of the practical realities of marriage and family. One husband puts it: "Mar- ried people particularly nee ('1 their own brand of spiritual di- rection directors familiar with marital problems and the spirituality adapted to the mar- ried life." [RITUAL Certainly spiritual direction is the “art of arts” and a good :11- rector is not easily found. However, more and more of the clergy are being trained in the arts and science of spiritual direction and more and more are qualified to give direction to lay people who seek in their di- rector a guide and a counsellor. Requisites of a good director are personal holiness, a sound knowledge of the spiritual lif e and a good understanding of psy chology and the circumstances of lay life. COMMUNIST CRITICIZES SYDNEY, Australia (Reuters) Tim Buck, chairman of the Speaking to reporters, [8 The Guardian Charlottetown, Salt, June 18, 1004. Spiritual Direction Lay People There clergymen. it seems, well trained in spiritual theology who fall as director- for lay people because they don't have an adequate undet- standlng of lay life. Conversely there are those who are sympathetic to the pro- blems and aspirations of lay people who don’t know in u c It about the nature and goal of the supernatural life to give good direction. What is badly needed these days are clergy who combine knowledge of both theory and practice. One question which arises Is what you discuss with a direc- tor. The answer would be many phases of life including the life of prayer. large decisions, spir- itual problems and the practil- ing of virtue. As a matter of fact ev thing concerning one’s spiritual and moral behavior or well as important decisions that might have to made could be in- cluded. The frequency of direction as well as the matters to be 1'- cussed, will vary from person to per 0 The director, in g e n e r a 1, works with what the person gives him. BEHAVIOR Beginners in the spiritual life, those involved in choosing a vocation, or in s 0 me external crisis or great interior trial, may need more lengthy and more frequent direction those whose life at present has a greater degree of stability. 0n the whole, spiritual direc- tion is a completely unexciting experience. People can't expect miracles from it; neither should they be discouraged if they don’t see any immediate re- sults. Like everything else in the Christian life they must plug along in it. It seems evident that “the de- sire for sanctity" is the neces sary qualifications to have a. spiritual director; that such di- rection is one of the normal means to grow in union with God is a relative necessity. direction and, needle“ to say, the Holy Spirit does not cease his workings on that account.
