BE THANKFUL FOR WORK

     Thank God every morning
when you get up that you have some-
thing to do which must be done, whether
you like it or not. 
Being forced to work, and forced to do your
best, will breed in you temperance and self-control
diligence and strength of will, cheerfulness and content,
and a hundred virtues which the idle never know.

God's Healing Touchl


 My Son has been very sick, since last December.  Four times we saw God pull him from death's door.  Death has a sound to it.  It has a smell, and a voice like no other.  It's been a battle to keep him alive. He's been in four hospitals and about ten emergency rooms.  Mayo's didn't know what to do for him.  That was very discouraging to have a hospital, we had heard so much about to say those words.

Each hospital tried their best, but said they didn't know what to do for him.  Northwestern did the most, but couldn't find what caused it, or how to cure it.

I'm glad we have a loving Heavenly Father that knows what the problem is and how to fix it. Day after day, we had to rely on the Lord for strength.  We still have to he is not totally healed.  Many people have joined us in prayer, and for that I am so grateful.  I felt strength coming into me and I knew it was from your prayers. Thank you so much.

We pray for his healing and God to use him for His glory.  He loves Jesus and want so to do a ministry for Him.

If we suffer with Him, we will reign with Him.  All Christians enter into His suffering one way or another.
Trials loosen the grip this world has on us and causes us to yearn for Heaven.

LABOR DAY

LABOR DAY
It will be a great day when everyone
         Who has a job is working
The best kind of pride is that which compels a man to
    do his best work-even when no one is looking.
A man can live pretty well these days if he works hard,
tends to his business, saves his money-
                 and has three jobs.
THE POWER OF YOUR LIFE IS NOT MEASURED
      BY YOUR "SPECIAL GIFTS',  AS MUCH AS
         BY YOUR ORDINARY DAILY WORK.
