Parents be careful; do not to say something you don’t mean. Some of Johnny/Jane’s actions are “no brainers;” Stand firm. If the situation is new, think before taking a stand (neither you nor a child needs a “knee-jerk” reaction.) but once settled: Stand firm. If you, Dad/Mom give in & your child wins, he may think he can do that with God. You may be helping him head toward hell.

Collect Truth
Some collect things that are free,
They fell from the sky,
They fell from a tree,
They were found by the sea.
Others invest in what they collect
Truth. Buy it. Collect it. Never it neglect.

PLEASE “PLEASE”
Going to heaven may seem hard for
The one struggling to “cross all the tees;”
But it’s easier for those who
Simply want Christ to please.

Prayer does not require certain body positions. Prayer does not need any money. Prayer does not have to be at specified hours. Prayer does not require a chapel or church. Prayer doesn’t even need words or syntax. And, you couldn’t ask for Anyone easier to talk to, when you’re sincere.

“…Let me say most emphatically, every soul that enters this experience [heart purity] will have its wilderness…”
– C W Ruth, fr. his /Bible Readings/
One Book /One alone/ should control your life! As a Baptist, you may respect Bro Charles (Spurgeon), as a Lutheran, you may respect Bro Martin, as a Wesleyan, you may respect Bro John, but none of their writings, however good you judge them, are inspired. Let every book be a d-i-s-t-a-n-t second to The Book!

Gen 1.6
“And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and
let it divide the waters from the waters.”
It’s not gossiping to tell God anything you want – if you told me some things it’d be gossip – but not God. Tell Him everything on your mind, provided no humans are listening. It doesn’t have to sound profound. It doesn’t have to make sense – He can read your intent. After you’ve talked, stop & listen. He may want to speak words to you. He did you the courtesy of listening – you owe Him more than equal courtesy. Listen – – – & say, “Yes, Sir.”
