Signs of the Times

with contributions from James B. Sadler, Bishop Hazen G. Werner

Rev. James B. Sadler in a column appearing in the Doylestown Intelligencer Doylestown, Pennsylvania

You have heard, "Man's extremity is opportunity," and this is true if we are willing to try to find a true relationship with our heavenly Father.

Enter into this relationship with a sincere desire to be changed. Very often it is not the other person who needs changing any more than it is we ourselves. Very often it is not the end which we so feverishly desire that has to be realized. We need to change our outlook on life as a whole, to let new meanings sink deeply into our minds — meaning about ourselves, about others, about our world. One of the best attitudes which should enter into our praying is this genuine attitude of desire to be changed, to be helped, to be made whole.
