What Is Your Masonic
Membership Worth
Have you ever paused to consider what your Masonic membership is worth to
you- not in dollars, but in the things that dollars cannot buy?
Was there ever a passport into more wonderful friendships than that
represented by your membership in Masonry? Has the thought occurred to you
that you extend your hand in fellowship and understanding, and it is
received not by a limited group, but by millions?
Do we give thought to the strength and inspiration that we receive from the
lessons of Masonry, and how those lessons enrich our lives, and broaden our
vision? Yes, they even make possible an education, the like of which is not
possible through any other course of instruction.
Have you ever thought how Masonry makes you tolerant of the other fellow's
faults and weaknesses because Love has brought Wisdom from the Great Light
of Freemasonry?
Have you ever thought of the privileges of service that Masonry offers- the
happiness derived from such service and sacrifice?
When we entered the portals of Masonry we had certain qualifications
necessary to become a Mason, but do we take stock of ourselves and find
that we have grown spiritually and mentally over years that we have worked
in Masonry?
Have you ever looked upon the face of a brother who is about to receive a
button for 50 years of service to Masonry? What do you suppose Masonry has
meant to that brother?
Let us take our Masonic membership to our heart. Let us thank God for the
privilege of our Masonic membership.
