Thought for Today
There is a vast amount of fun about it all. I suppose some would be shocked at our seeming worldliness and levity. But just underneath there is deadly earnestness. Faith has to work twenty-four hours a day in and through us, or we perish.
Most of us feel we need look no further for Utopia. We have it with us right here and now. Each day my friend 's simple talk in our kitchen multiplies itself in a widening circle of peace on earth and good will to men.
