Of my father Rex Childs, Sr.
Who is currently battling
Covid at his home in
Mississippi.
Get well soon Dad!

A dad is someone who holds
You when you cry,
Scolds you when you break
The rules,
Shines with pride when
You succeed,
And has faith in you even
When you fail.

It is the way a father holds his child’s
Hand that makes his child feel safe.
It is the way a father looks at his child
Makes his child feel cared for.
But most of all, it is the very presence
Of a father to a child that makes the child
Feel blessed

My father used to play
With my brother and me
In the yard.
Mother would come out
And say,

"We're not raising grass,"
Dad would reply.
"We're raising
boys."

Only when we live, walk, behave,
And have our being altogether in
Our spirit,
Not in our natural man,
Are we in the kingdom of God and,
In reality, are the kingdom of God.

You find yourself refreshed in
The presence of cheerful people.
Why not make an honest effort
To confer that pleasure on others?

Forgiveness is not a matter of
Exonerating people who have hurt you.
They may not deserve exoneration.
Forgiveness means cleansing your soul
Of the bitterness of ‘what might have been,’
‘What should have been,’
And ‘what didn’t have to happen.’
Someone has defined forgiveness as ‘giving
Up all hope of having had a better past.’
What’s past is past and there is little to be
Gained by dwelling on it.
There are perhaps no sadder people then the
Men and women who have a grievance against
The world because of something that happened
Years ago and have let that memory sour their
View of life ever since.
- Harold S. Kushner
The only opinion about your dream
That really counts are yours.
The negative comments of others
Merely reflect their limitations…
Not yours.

4 Advantages of Term Life Insurance
Here's why term life insurance can be a good fit, particularly for young families
on a budget.
Navigating the ins and outs of all the different types of life insurance can seem
intimidating, especially if you’re buying your first policy. That’s why many shoppers
choose term life insurance. It’s a good fit for most people, particularly young
families on a budget looking for temporary coverage.
Here are four advantages to term life insurance...
On average, life insurance rates are more affordable for term than whole life
insurance because term policies offer coverage for a predetermined time. If you
outlive the term and the policy expires, your beneficiaries don’t receive the
death benefit, so it’s less of a risk to the insurer. Whole life insurance premiums,
by comparison, are higher because the policies pay out no matter when you die.
All of the best life insurance companies sell term life.
You have many options when choosing how long your term life insurance should last.
Typically, you can buy coverage for 10, 15, 20, 25 or 30 years. If you’re the
breadwinner and want a policy to cover your mortgage, a 30-year term might be a
better match. These needs disappear over time, and so might your need for a policy.
Because term life covers only a specific period and is generally less expensive than
permanent life insurance (whole life), it’s a great choice for young families looking for
temporary coverage. For example, you can buy a policy to cover the years your family
relies on you financially, and lower your coverage when your children become
self-sufficient.
Term life insurance is easy to understand which makes it simple to shop for and
compare life insurance quotes. As long as you pay the premium, you’re covered
for the duration of the policy. You need to make only three main decisions...
how much life insurance coverage you need, how long you want the coverage to
last and which insurer you want to do business with.
For many people, term life insurance is a simple, affordable way to safeguard the
financial health of loved ones if something happens to them.

So is a bath,

And I still believe,

We can always give it meaning
And transform it into something
Of value.

Beginning today,
Treat everyone you meet as if
They were going to be dead by
Midnight.
Extend to them all the care,
Kindness and understanding

And do with no thought of any
Reward.

Again.

The Guy in the Glass…
When you get what you want in your struggle for pelf,
And the world makes you King for a day,
Then go to the mirror and look at yourself,
And see what that guy has to say.
For it isn't your Father, or Mother, or Wife,
Who judgment upon you must pass.
The feller whose verdict counts most in your life
Is the guy staring back from the glass.
He's the feller to please, never mind all the rest,
For he's with you clear up to the end,
And you've passed your most dangerous, difficult test
If the guy in the glass is your friend.
You may be like Jack Horner and "chisel" a plum,
And think you're a wonderful guy,
But the man in the glass says you're only a bum
If you can't look him straight in the eye.
You can fool the whole world down the pathway of years,
And get pats on the back as you pass,
But your final reward will be heartaches and tears
If you've cheated the guy in the glass.
- Dale Wimbrow (c) 1934

If a child, a spouse, or a parent
Depends on you and your income,
You need life insurance.

because you are going to die,
but because those you love
are going to live.

Learn to enjoy every minute of your life.
Be happy now.
Don’t wait for something outside of
Yourself to make you happy in the future.
Think how really precious is the time you
Have to spend, whether it’s at work or with
Your family.
Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.
- Earl Nightingale
All of the great achievers of the past have
Been visionary figures;
They were men and women who projected
Into the future.
They thought of what could be, rather than
What already was,
And then they moved themselves into action,
To bring these things into fruition.

“There is need of a great revival of spiritual life,
Of true fervent devotion to our Lord Jesus,
Of entire consecration to His service.
It is only in a Church in which this spirit of revival
Has at least begun, that there is any hope of any very
Radical change in the relation of the majority of our
Christian
people to mission work.”

Going places and are starved for

We (Atlanta Braves) hit every bump
We could possibly hit this year (2021)
And somehow the car still made it to
The other side,
We’ve been the best team since the
Trade Deadline and we played like it
All the way into the postseason.
We just got hot, and we just carried it over.
Said Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman,
Who homered and drove in two runs in Game 6.
It’s just an incredible group.
He Saw The Play…
Those who read baseball history would remember
The name of Christy Mathewson.
He was a pitcher for the New York Giants.
He won the first game that he pitched for them.
Then he pitched many times and was quite a champion.
In 1908 the New York Giants were playing the
Chicago Cubs for the championship of the year.
It was the last half of the ninth inning and the score
Was tied with two men out. A man was on first base
(Fred Merkle) Awaiting the hit. The hit came and they
Were away. The runner from first base crossed the home
Plate for the winning run.
Immediately, however, the run was challenged by Chicago.
They claimed that the man (Fred Merkle) running from first
Base had not touched second base. The teams were in a hot
Dispute. President Harry Pulliam of the National League was
Called In and he said, “Where's Christy Mathewson?”
Christy was called and was asked to state what he saw.
Knowing that the meaning of the decision, the losing of the
Championship for the members of his team, and the extra
Money that goes along with the championship to the winners,
Christy replied, “Merkel cut second base.”
Christy and his team lost the championship,
But baseball won something far more important than a
Pennant.
Honesty is a lost quality in the world today.
(The 1908 Cubs were involved in the famous "Merkle's Boner"
Incident, in which Fred Merkle, the Giants' base-runner on
1st base, failed to touch 2nd after the Giants' hitter had singled
home the winning run from 3rd. Johnny Evers retrieved the
ball from the crowd (which had flooded the field) and got an ump
to call Merkle out at 2nd. Merkle's mental lapse ended up costing
The Giants the pennant.)
