Hello Everyone,
Each of us is important to someone. Folks should be known for something. I heard the story of a clerk, who was not known for being very efficient, in a small store was not around one morning, a customer asked the owner's young son, "Where's Joe? Is he sick?" "Nope, he ain't working' here no more," was the reply. "Do you have anyone in mind for the vacancy?" inquired the customer. "Nope! Joe didn't leave a vacancy!"
Now think about that statement which characterized Joe. It applies equally to many in the church today. In serving Christ folks are so lazy and weak that if they left the church their absence would scarcely be noticed. Could that be said about you? I hope not.
"And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ." Colossians 3:23-24
Remember Always, "God does all things well."

Lead by Example
Hello Everyone,
I heard of a church in Kansas, there can be seen in a cement sidewalk the prints of two baby feet with the toes pointing toward the Church. It was said that 20 years ago, when the sidewalk was being laid, a mother secured permission to stand her baby boy on the wet cement. It is said that the tracks are seen today plainly. The Mother had wanted her little boy to start aright. That should be the desire of every parent. Children need to pointed to go to church. Even better than that is to lead them to church by example. Amen!
"Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity." 1 Timothy 4:12

Stay Close to God
Hello Everyone,
When we read Psalms 142, one will read the loneliness of David. David is hiding in a cave from Saul who is busy trying to kill him. What makes one lonely is being chased by the devil. The Devil knows how to get you tired, lonely and separated. He does this many times by cutting you out of the herd. Perhaps, you have seen this happen numbers of time on those nature shows. Only you may not have put thoughts of it as in your world. Now with this in mind, you maybe to come up with someone you know that the devil has cut out of the herd and that person is no longer serving God or anywhere near the church.
There may be someone reading this that is having feelings of loneliness. Sure life is not fair and things won't always go your way. I want to assure you that God really cares and loves you. You have to trust God when you have these feelings of loneliness. Trusting God keeps the devil from cutting you out of the herd. Stay close to God, stay close to those in church in those lonely days. You will be glad you did.
"Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up." Ecclesiates 4:9,10
