Hello Everyone,
Today we are going to great length to make sure our airways are safe. And there is plenty of reason for why this is needed to be done. It reminds me of a story once told that went something like this:
A traveler came to a road block and had to pass through custom. The officers said to him, "Have you any contraband goods?" He replied, "I do not think I have." "That may be all true," said the officers; "but we cannot permit you to pass without examination. Permit us to search." "If you please," said the traveler. After the examination was over, the traveler addressed the officers, saying, Gentlemen, will you allow me to tell you what thoughts this examination has come to my mind? We are all travelers to an eternal kingdom, into which we cannot take any contraband goods. These things can be deceitfulness, anger, pride, lying, covetousness, and similar offenses; which is sin in the sight of God.
Everyone who passes the boundary of the grave is searched far more strictly than you have been searched at an airport. God is the Great Searcher of hearts: from him nothing is hid; and in that kingdom, as in this, everyone shall give an account." Let us be careful as we end this week and start a new week to not carry any contraband with us.
"Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you." Ephesians 4:31-32
Remember Always, "God does all things well."
Until Jesus Comes

What Burdens?
Hello Everyone,
An old legend says that at creation the birds felt cheated and hurt because they received wings. Wings appeared to be burdens which none of the other animals were asked to carry. All was changed, however, when the birds learned that wings were not burdens but blessings that borne them to the sky. Because they were given wings they could rise above the earth and see sights which no other animal could see.
We have al complained. We are in need of being careful of what may seem like a burden could very well be a really big blessing. Trust God in all things.
"And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good." Genesis 1:21

Christian Rug
Hello Everyone,
My wife has placed a small rug beside my side of the bed. I think she thinks I have dirty feet. Anyway, no matter where you place that little rug, when you walk on it, it creeps. That's right it creeps away from where you wanted it to stay. No matter what I do, it just will not stay in the place I want it too.
Now here is what I have found out. As long as I don't step or walk on the little rug, it will stay where it is suppose to. It is only when I walk on it that it gets mad at me and moves away. Dirty rotten little rug. I started calling it my little rebellious Christian rug. So often Christians are faithful to their post until someone or something walks on their spot. Then they want to move. Let us be found faithful and of good courage when our spots get walked on.
"O love the LORD, all ye his saints: for the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer. Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD." Psalms 31;23,24
