1Co 10.13
“There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.”
“…We have no assurance that any physical perfection can be made use of in the world above…neither have we any assurance that the perfections of the mind survive the day of death.”

MAN #3. The son raised by such a man of ability & confidence [ see above “MAN #1”] saw his dad’s devotion to mom & the entire family. The lesson was not wasted. Son wanted to be like dad. Daughters raised by such men wanted a husband who knows how to do things – different things – but who was not afraid of work, who do not fear sweat but who do hate unnecessary debt. (Oh, how our homes need MEN, our churches need MEN, our nation needs MEN!) – 1/27/23

but he cannot afford to be wrong.”

LET GOD
God is God. He was God long before you were “hatched.”
And He’ll be God when your casket is securely latched.
There’s nothing you can do to change this – not the least.
But you can let Him change YOUR future from famine to feast.

WHY WRITE? [C.] Point [A.] above can’t be over emphasized. In the mean time I purposely write a variety. As a happily-married man I want YOUR marriage joyful. As an amateur gardener I wish YOUR plots to flourish. As a teacher I’d love for YOUR child/grandchild to thrive in home school. As naturalist I hope YOU delight in the change of seasons, local flora, & fauna. As a frugal person I want YOU to waste not. And as a Literature major, I want YOU to revel in the lovely prose/poetry of the Classic KJV. – 1/30/23
“I challenge the doctrine now being taught that we must enter into a mad rivalry with the Old World in the building of battleships – the doctrine that the only way to preserve peace is to get ready for wars that ought never to come! It is a barbarous…”

Please learn (even if you’re still a sinner) to use TIME wisely. If you’ve been Born Again, never be guilty of just “killing TIME.” When waiting for your wife/husband, pray. (No, don’t just pray for patience. J) While waiting for an appointment or at a doctor’s office or to have a car serviced, pray. Pray for the next thing on your prayer-list. If you’ve prayed very much you’re aware that there’re many items you can bring to God. I know of no better thing you can do with a moment here & there, than pray. – 2/2/23
Rev 22.5
“…There shall be no night there & they need no candle, neither light of the sun;
for the Lord God giveth them light: & they shall reign for ever & ever.”
For yrs I was worked in Christian Education. Sometime in the 70s (I think) I heard this idea. “There’re three things about starting a Christian School: the first is location, the second is location, the third is location.” Friend there are three points of importance about where you go *When. You. Die. They are *Location, *Location, & *Location. Two of the schools in which I labored closed – but the HEAVENLY HOME (or your horrible pit below) will not close. Please, PLEASE don’t miss Heaven. – 2/3/23
“War is not a private affair; it disturbs the commerce of the world
obstructs the ocean’s highways & kills innocent bystanders.”
