What is home without a Bible?
‘Tis a place where day is night,
For o’er life’s beclouded pathway
Heaven can shed no kindly light.
What is home without a Bible?
‘Tis a place where daily bread
For the body is provided,
But the soul is never fed.
What is home without a Bible?
‘Tis a vessel on the sea,
Compass lost and rudder broken,
Drifting, drifting, [...]
While reading the April 08 update letter from Christian law association I saw this quote:

Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
Thou [...]

A Fly Lady Podcast I listened to recently featured an interview with former Navy Seal Marcus Luttrell. Here is a link to the show.
Marcus Luttrell was talking about the attitude needed to make it through the Seal training. He summed it up with this saying, “There’s nothing anybody can do to make [...]
Every Christian wants to evade the Devil’s snares and traps, right? An evangelist that was at my church recently told us how to do just that.

Prov 1:17 Surely in vain the net is spread in the [...]
We found a good church to go to on our recent trip to Arizona. It was probably the best “vacation church” that we’ve been to.
The Sunday evening message was titled Propped Up or Planted, and it’s really stuck in my mind.
The Pastor mentioned Demas, Paul’s helper…
Philemon 1:24 Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellowlabourers.

Once a month I play the piano in the Alzheimer’s unit of a local nursing home. This past Monday the lady that sat on my right sang almost every song I played. If she didn’t know the words she would hum along. I always enjoy hearing them sing or hum along.
While [...]
I read the following sentence in a magazine a couple months ago:
Churchgoers are among the people most likely to forgive.
Um, yeah. That’s a no-brainer.
Some of the facts about forgiveness that I did find interesting were:
It lowers your blood pressure and helps your heart.
You will be more self confident.
You’ll have less aches and pains; [...]
