Smile

Good day to each of you reading this short column as I have been asked to provide some positive thoughts in our discouraging world.

Biblically, we think we have it bad, but our Savior paid the ultimate price for the payment of our sins through his crucifixion.

Would you make this sacrifice or to lay down your life for a family member let alone the world from the beginning to the end?

A spear in his side, fists to his face, soldiers spitting on him, struck him on his head repeatedly with a staff, took off his clothes and divided them into four shares.

The ultimate sacrifice with no regrets and no thoughts of turning back for you and me.

So, when things are not going your way, problems occur daily, decisions are harder to make and the walls are closing in—Kneel and Pray to God—Get in touch with God, smile and praise him.

Simple to say, take a moment to read about Job in the Old Testament—this book will put a smile on your face.

God will never forsake you nor put more on your plate than you take.

Jeff

  • Teachers

    How will teachers be affected and what will be the role of the parents in teaching the child and helping with homework? Teachers, in the past, did not entertain your child while you were at work, they taught your child the basics or fundamentals to prepare them for the future.
