While you’re giving the rest of
the home a ■ new face this year
check the frames around those
pictures. Good pictures properly
framed add much to the boauty
of a home. Therefore, jt’s import-
ant that the frame be selected to
go with a particular picture rath-
er than trying to suit a picture to
a frame.
The frame should harmonise
with both the picture and the
wall. One guide is to select a
frame that isn’t quite as dark as
the darkest color in the picture
It is also correct to select a light
er value than that of the picture
Uuaaily the frame should be
darker than the mat. Repeating a
picture color in the frame places
emphasis on the picture and ties
the two together. The lines of the
frame should emphasize those of
the picture whether they’re sim
pie, complex, straight or curved.
Frames that look worm-eaten or
weathered are suitable for natural
subjects used in an informal
room Traditional portraits have
elaborate, carved frames and are
hung in .formal rooms.
The frame should be the same
period as the picture. For exam
pie, if the painting is by a Dutch
artist of the 17th or 18th Century,
the frame should be simple with
no carving.
Frames for all paper pictures,
such as water colors and pencil
sketches, are usually made from
fairly narrow, simple molding.
They are smooth textured and
shallow, with little grain or carv-
ing, and no deep carving.

"THE LIMITED BLESSINGS"
Text: II Kings 4:1-7
.Necessary to the well-being of
the Jewish home woo olive oil.
This valuable commodity was used
in religious ceremonies, for light-
ing the home, and at an ointment
for the treating of illness and
wounds.
But Is wm even mof* important
as food. R dressed the lefty salads
of which moat people wefle fond,
and it furnished oil for oooklng.
U was about the only fats the
Jewish people had with which to
prepare their food. It was un-
thinkable for a Jew to use the fat
of a hog as western people do,
and in Bible times the manufact-
ure of oils from various seeds
was unknown. There Was plenty
of olive oil, rich and nutricious.
Sad indeed was the home which
ran out of olive oil and had not
the means to replace it.
Our text is built around* this
wide use of olive oil in the Jewish
home.
Tha Blasting Naadad
There is nothing unusual in the
text.- What one of. us does not
need the blessing that God alone
can grant?
This poor Jewish woman was in
dire need Her husband had died,
leaving her with two sons. The
little famdy had exhausted its
means and the creditors are ham-
mering on the door. It was lawful
in those days to put a man in
jail if he could hot pay a debt, or,
even worse, under certain circum-
stances, the creditor was allowed
to take a member of the family
as a guarantee that he debt would
be paid.
The man she owed was about to
take away her sons. She stood to
lose much. She could not go out
and work for a living, as women
did not do such . . . She was des-
perately poor. Her food_ supply
was all gone except for one small
pot of oil. What could she do?
Her need was great. It was time
for a blessing from Heaven. God
knows our needs and hears our
prayers.
Tha Biassing Askar Far
In an agony of spirit this poor
woman cried out to God’s prophet
for a blessing - *- and in her case,
it would have to be a miraculous
blessing. She was beyond the help
of ordinary men. It was time for
a miracle.
She knew that Elisha, God’s
prophet, was familiar with mir-
acles. He was the man to see
Elisha could petition God and
work a miracle for her and the
two boys. So she asked for the
blessing. Not only did she ask,
but she cried out for H. There
is a difference. So often our pray-
ers are . mumbled sentences, gar-
bled ideas ail jammed together,
half heart idly offered, and with
out the spark of faith to give them
life.
So many of God’s people have
no real sense of need as far as
our spiritual lives are concerned
Our powerless pulpits, our dry-
eyed pews, our vital statistics, and
our poor, poor relationship with
God • • these things seem to oon-
oem us little.
How we need a sense of need
This woman recognized her need
She was not kidding herself. She
was about to lose her children.
She cried unto God, and things
began to happen.
Thar* is the Bleasing Given
God’s man, Elisha, responded to
this heart cry of a needy woman,
this woman who wanted a bless-
ing. He gave the command. Bor-
row vessels from the neighbors
Borrow not a few. She poured
until all the borrowed vessels
were full. Her faith was again
demonstrated.
Tha Blessing .Limited
Only one condition limited the
flow of the oil. That was a lack of
vessels. When the prophet had in-
structed the woman to borrow
jars, he had taken the lid off as
far as God was concerned. Borrow
not a few. That simply meant
that God was willing to go into
the oil business. There would be
no limit as far as God was con
corned: As long as there were
pots, there would be oil. She could
ltave poured oil the rest of her
.life, had she had the pots.
T Wh^BHGod started pouring out
blessings, and when they stop,
it is not because God has run out
of material or has lost interest,
it -is only because our capacity to
receive is limited by lack of earn-
estness and lack of faith.
It honors God for his children
to receive bjaaringr It gives Him
an opportunity to roveal to a scoff-
ing world His . love for those who
trust Him. Yet we deprive the
Lord of this opportunity. He
stands, arms full . of blessings^
ready to bless us. We stand there
with a teaspoon ,-tp receive the
bounties of Heaven when 1 wo
