What Say Ye?

Written by Joyce C. Lock


Continued from page 1

For I mean not that other men be eased, and ye burdened: But by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may be a supply for their want, that their abundance also may be a supply for your want: that there may be equality.

As it is written, He that had gathered much (should have) nothing over; and he that had gathered little (should have) no lack. Providing for honest things, not only inrepparttar sight ofrepparttar 126851 Lord, but also inrepparttar 126852 sight of men. Wherefore shew ye to them, and beforerepparttar 126853 churches,repparttar 126854 proof of your love.

When we care to know what God believes, all we have to do is ask Him.

Life! In Grandfather's Kitchen

Written by Kathryn E. Ryan


Continued from page 1
Onrepparttar antique oak table, a Louis L'amour novel sits propped up againstrepparttar 126850 centerpiece with a clothespin onrepparttar 126851 page where he left off. Not far from there sitsrepparttar 126852 New Testament with another clothespin biting a page of II Corinthians, chapter 13. His silverware and china sit like polished soldiers awaiting inspection, and an extra place setting sleeps late for still-dozing Grandmother. The trill of a teaspoon dancing inside a coffee cup always fills my heart with warmth and security because, to me, it wasrepparttar 126853 morning song of Grandfather's spiritual presence. As sure as his faith in God, he sat inrepparttar 126854 bright yellow kitchen every morning with a hearty breakfast,repparttar 126855 best coffee in town, his Bible, and his long time companion, Louis L'amour. That'srepparttar 126856 way I choose to remember him, sitting inrepparttar 126857 light ifrepparttar 126858 sun (Son).
