Help Is on the Way

AS both engines of the small plane started smoking, the pilot grabbed a parachute and headed toward the door. His departing words were, “Don’t worry about a thing, folks—I’m going for help.”

Are you "Ready for either"?

An old Roman coin was found on which was a picture of an ox, one of the servants of man. The ox was facing two things, an alter and a plough.The inscription read, "Ready for either". Are we ready for both service and sacrifice for our Lord? ... Run with perseverance the race that is set before you. It is worth it all! And so I run!
-"Evidence Not Seen" by Dalene Deibler Rose

If you want to be be challenged in your walk of faith read Evidence Not Seen, it is my favorite biography!! Let me know what you thought and how it challened you.

Spring Garden


Your Garden

First, plant five rows of peas: Preparedness, Promptness, Perseverance, Politeness, and Prayer. Next to them plant three rows of squash: Squash Gossip, Squash Criticism, and Squash Indifference. Then five rows of lettuce: let us be Faithful, Let us be Unselfish, Let us be Loyal, Let us be Truthful, Let us love one Another. And no garden is complete with out turnips: Turn up for church, Turn up with a Smile, Turn up with Determination.

The Soldier

I am reading E.M. Bounds book on prayer, the chapter I'm in right now is titled "The Christian and Spiritual Warfare." I wanted to share a couple of exerpts from it.

" There is no primrose path, no rose-scented flirting. From start to finish, it is war. The Christian warrior is compelled from the hour he first draws his sword to 'Endure hardness as a good soldier' (2 Tim. 2:3)....What a misconception many people have of the Christian life... He scarecely seems to realize that the world , the flesh, and the devil will oppose his onward march. He hardly realizes that they will defeat him utterly , unless he gives himself to constant vigliance and unceaseing prayer!...The Christian soldier must be as intense in his praying as in his fighting, for his victories will depend much more on his praying than on his fighting."

Even a little child understands


When I got back from my trip, Eric came running up to me saying that he had something to tell me. But than he got all shy about it. I finally got him to whisper it in my ear. The news he told me was sooo exciting. He said " Emmy,I accepted Jesus into my heart" !! I was thrilled to know that my little 5 yr. old brother understood the concept that ALL are sinners in need of a Savior, and that Christ died for him to pay the penalty. And now he as assurance that he is going to heaven when he dies.
It amazes me that God made something this important,simple enough for a child and yet so deep we can never know everything it contains.

Laughter is the best med.


I went out to find a friend,
But could not find one there,
I went out to be a friend
And friends were everywhere!

It takes 64 muscles to make a frown, but only 13 to make a smile.
Why work overtime?

Be Still...

Life has its hurts,
life has its pain,
Life has its continuing problems
that arise over and over again.
Silently I listen and there comes a voisce
misdst the struggles of the day.
A quiest reassuring word
goving me strenght along the way.
BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD.
