CONFIDENT LIVING" How to Get Flow of Power By NORMAN VINCENT PEAIJ5 A man came up to me on the street and greeted me quite happily and said, "Well, I've got the faucet." I stared at him. "I don't get you. What'do you mean, you still have the faucet?" "Oh," he asked, "don't you remember the faucet?" All I could think of was the plumbing business and and I've never been in It. And, when I asked the man to explain, he told me I'd given him the faucet Idea In a sermon preached 20 years ago.

I used the faucet as an illustration; the man didn't remember exactly how I'd come up with it, but It had meant something to him and he'd never forgotten It. And. as I talked with him, I remembered what it was. I had been reading T. E.

Lawrence's great book, "The Seven Pillars of Wisdom." Lawrence of Arabia, as he was known, was a brilliant Englishman who led the Arabs In the Allied cause in World War I. After the war was over he took a delegation of his Arabian friends to Paris. -A- LAWRENCE SHOWED them the famous Champs Elysces; he showed them the Eiffel Tower; he showed them the tomb of Napolean; he showed the Louvre, but none of these things interested them. They found only one subject of Interest in Paris. And it was right In their hotel room.

It was the bathtub. He found them gathered around it turning the faucet on an off, watching the water flow. "Isn't this exclaimed. "All you have to do Is turn this thing and you get all the water you want!" They spent all their spare time playing with the faucet. They were utterly fascinated.

When they were ready to leave the city, Lawrence found them working with wrenches in the bathroom, trying to get 'the faucets off. "We want to take them back to the desert with us," they explained. "You know how it is out there and how little water we It'll be wonderful to have the faucets and be able to turn them on get all the water we want." Lawrence had to explain to them that the faucet was only the delivery end of a long system pipes connecting to great conduits eventually leading back to vast reservoirs. And behind these reservoirs were high mountains where the snow melted and the rain fell to fill the reservoirs. He emphasized that Uiey could not get water from a faucet unless it was attached to a source of water.

Well, this faucet idea was all that this man remembered of my sermon. But he had made use of the illustration. His life had been dry and fruitless, he said, until he attached his "faucet" to the great reservoirs of God's powers. He told me the way he did that was to surrender himself to God's guidance and to make God the directing force in his life. And, when he did this, suddenly, by his prayers, by his faith, by his devotion, he had been able to turn on a tremendous flow of spiritual power and it had been flowing ever since.

That was what he meant when he told me he still had the faucet. "It is almost unbelievable how wonderful life is when you are declared. If your life isn't what you want It to be; if you have never reached the level of attainment you desire; if the urge in your soul remains unsatisfied--get attached. You can attach yourself by sincerely wanting to be attached; you can attach yourself by believing; you can attach yourself by stopping those things in your life which you know to be wrong; you can attach yourself by giving yourself until you find yourself. If you do this, you will get a flow of power so full that It will flow out from you and splash over the whole world around you.

In first person ally ten account of his June visit to Moscow, the July 20 Issue of Christianity Today, Graham declared it is "only partly true" to say that there Is little religious freedom in the Soviet Union. "Certainly there Is not free dom such as we know it," he wrote. "The church definitely operates within restricted and limited areas. Yet within those areas there seems to be great freedom in the preaching and teaching of the Bible." "Here," the evangelist added, "is the most exciting thing I discovered In Russia: Bible which the party thought to be outdated, unscientific, and relegated to the eighteenth century was handed to the pastors and some of the peo pie.

It was thought that no in telligent person, especially the youth, would believe or accept it. They did riot realize that this Word has its own built-in power.
