"Bursting
l the world"
it
One day in May of 1945, the late Edward R. Murrow,
,often. called "the perfect newsman", was summoned to
AJlieo Headquarters somewhere in Britain. Ushered
into an old converted hangar, he found himself with
other reporters in the presence of top allied brass.
"Gentlemen", began a general named Eisenhower, "the
doors have been locked behind you. We'll try to make
your detention comfortable; you'll be here a week while
we brief you on D-Day! Eventually, you will know what
we know. D-Day starts in 19 hours so, relax. You can
have anything you want except an open phone to file
your stories!"
Murrdw wrote later: "'There I sat with the news story
of the decade, perhaps even the century, sure of facts,
bursting to tell the world and they say: "relax!"
Shouldn't we Christians feel like that about our Good
News? Our Lord has briefed us extensively with
examples and experiences of His love for us and others.
He's spelled out fully His plans to forgive old sins, to
make us free, to create new creatures. And He has docu-
mented loneliness, despair, emptiness and futility of
life without Him.
So here we are in Advent, with the Good News for all
time. For God's sake —and man's too —let's get the
Word around!
