A Sermon for Today BY REV. JOHN R. GUNN. Missing Good Things “Your sins hs withholden good things from you."—Jeremiah. v.25 When sin they do 3o under the delusion that they will thereby | gain “good things" But how sadly they are disappointed. If they get the “good” they go after they get some- thing else along with it that tskes “all*the gilt off the gingerbread.’ The drunkard may, get the pleasurable ob- livion he seeks, but he also gets a red nose, & watery eve. a corrugated liver. There is an old Greek legend about a certain messenger that came to earth with a box, in which were all manner of pleazant gifts, and down at_the bottom was a speckled pest that. when the box was emptied. erawled | out into the sunshine and infested the land. That Pandora’s box is like “the good things” that sin brings to men. You gain, perhaps. your advantage. b\fifi you get something that spoils it al The word “sin" means, m the orig- inal, “that which micses its mark.” Sin always misses it< mark Every wrong thing we do misses its aim. We alwavs fall short of “the good things" we aim at. even though they are of | the most paltry and shabby zort. when | we venture upon any evil eourse Another thing. Sin not onlyr disap- points us in the good it seems to moml!e. but it spoils our taste for the etter and really good things of life and shuts us off from participation in them. “Your sins have withholden good from you" The light which is gladsome to a healthy eve is agony to a diseased one. The good that the godly enjoy is s a poison to the godless man. Put a bad man in company with good men and he would be miserable. Sin unfits a man for fellowship with the pure and noble. It renders ons incapable of appreciat- ing and enjoying the things that make life_beautiful, happy and worth while. In any way you view it sin means missing merk.
