BOB JONES BOB JGft!ES GREENVILLE. SOUTH Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver (II Corinthians 9:7). I should like to share with you two letters. The first is from a student. He said, I am enclosing an offering. I made a contribution last week, but it was with the idea that the Lord would pay me back. When He did not immediately repay me, I became upset and did not feel any joy over my giving. The enclosed gift is from my heart, with no thought of return from the Lord. The second letter is from a man seeking advice. He said, An evangelist promises that if I will send him five dollars a month, he will pray every day that the Lord will prosper us, and we will get more money in return. What do you think about it? I answered, I think that it is wrong to try to bribe God for oneself or to University CAROLINA 29614 tempt other people to try to bribe Him. God pours out His blessings in full measure, pressed down, and running over. We can never outgive Him. But I do not believe that the appeal for money to be used in His work should be on the basis of getting something in return. That would not be a gift; it would be an invest- ment. Our gifts should emanate from obedience to Gods Word and from love for His Cause. I am glad that the student who wrote me learned that important lesson, and I hope that my advice to the man was helpful. It is true that if we sow sparingly, we shall reap sparingly, and that if we sow bountifully, we shall reap bountifully (II Corinthians 9:G). But the proper basis upon which to base every aspect of the Christian life including is love in the our giving heart.

In making the announcement. Board President Kci:h L. Knight extended his congratulations to Maxine Thomas, executive director, and her staff, saying, We have always felt the program was outstanding, but it is very nice to have this national affirmation of the excellent quality of service offered here in the Salt Lake area. Accreditation, while important inhelping to recruit outstanding staff to work at Community Nursing Service, is most important and of most benefit to the residents of Salt Lake County, according to Mr. Knight. He explained, The NLNAPHA accreditation helps us to continually .improve our nursing services, helps the consumer to identify those community nursing services which have met nationally accepted standards, and fosters the best use of available manpower resources. by the National League for Nursing and the American Public Health Association, the accreditation program is a voluntary one. It is the only program of its kind in the health field, and is designed to help agencies evaluate and improve their practice. During the evaluation leading to accreditation, the agency underwent the process of completed an extensive report and was then visited and further examined by a team of investigators from the National League for Nursing, which included the nurse director cf a comparable, accredited agency located in a different state. Criteria for evaluation included the organization and administration of the home nursing agency, the nursing program itself, the staff, and future plans.

Reed, it because of United Way funding home table fare. Harvest figures are preliminary, however, and success is expected to be about 10 percent. With a more limited hunting area than in past years, nimrods were restricted to the LaSal and Blue Mountain-El- k Ridge areas in San Juan County, according to Division of Wildlife Resources game biologist Norm Bowden. One hunter reported seeing 20 turkeys on the Blue Mountain-El- k Ridge area, while separate sightings of 22, 11, 30 and 14 of the big birds were reported in the LaSals. One permit holder shot at five different birds, but missed them all. Bowden did report that a hard winter last year and the severe drought this summer combined to cut productivity among the birds on the North Boulder Mountain, East Zion, Pine Valley and Beaver Mountain areas. These factors lead to a decision by Division field personnel not to have a hunt in those areas this year. on, |
