“The Spirit of the Lord is on Me.

He has put His hand on Me to preach

the Good News to poor people.

He has sent Me to heal those with a sad heart.

He has sent Me to tell those who are being held

that they can go free.

He has sent Me to make the blind to see and

to free those who are held because of trouble.

Lk.4:18

 

We must be free not

Because we claim freedom,

But because we practice it.

- William Faulkner

 

Order without liberty

And liberty without order

Are equally destructive.

- Theodore Roosevelt

 

Freedom makes a huge requirement

Of every human being.

With freedom comes responsibility.

For the person who is unwilling to

Grow up,

The person who does not want to

Carry his own weight,

This is a frightening prospect.

- Eleanor Roosevelt

 

Freedom prospers when

Religion is vibrant and

The rule of law under

God is acknowledged.

- Ronald Wilson Reagan

 

 

 

062923 Free at Last...

On July 2nd 2023 the Lord willing I will celebrate

A very special anniversary for it was on July 2nd 1975

I became a Christian.

 

My dad immersed me into Christ at

Western Kentucky Christian Youth Camp

Near Marion, KY.

 

My brother Tim who preaches in Caledonia, MS

Also became a Christian on the same occasion.

It is a special bond we share.

 

“Therefore if the Son makes

You free, you shall be free indeed.”

John 8:36

 

I believe this song “Free at Last”

Is appropriate as I remember that

Blessed event.

 

- Hayden Childs

 

Free at Last…

1 I never shall forget that day,
Thank God Almighty I'm free at last;
When Jesus washed my sins away,
Thank God Almighty I'm free at last.

2 I went about with a listless tread,
Thank God Almighty I'm free at last;
An aching heart and a hung down head,
Thank God Almighty I'm free at last.

3 I prayed and prayed but found no peace,
Thank God Almighty I'm free at last;
Till I trusted Jesus' righteousness,
Thank God Almighty I'm free at last.

4 My many sins are washed away,
Thank God Almighty I'm free at last;
I'm happy now the livelong day,
Thank God Almighty I'm free at last.

5 I'm not ashamed the world to tell,
Thank God Almighty I'm free at last;
How Jesus saved my soul from hell,
Thank God Almighty I'm free at last.

6 I am so happy and so free,
Thank God Almighty I'm free at last;
Sin has no power over me,
Thank God Almighty I'm free at last.

7 I'll tell the nations great and small,
Thank God Almighty I'm free at last;
The blood of Christ has done it all,
Thank God Almighty I'm free at last.

Refrain:
I'm free at last, free at last,
Thank God Almighty I'm free at last;
Free at last, free at last,
Thank God Almighty I'm free at last.

- Charles Price Jones

062623 See It Through...

See It Through…

When you’re up against a trouble,
    Meet it squarely, face to face;
Lift your chin and set your shoulders,
    Plant your feet and take a brace.
When it’s vain to try to dodge it,
    Do the best that you can do;
You may fail, but you may conquer,
    See it through!

Black may be the clouds about you
    And your future may seem grim,
But don’t let your nerve desert you;
    Keep yourself in fighting trim.
If the worst is bound to happen,
    Spite of all that you can do,
Running from it will not save you,
    See it through!

Even hope may seem but futile,
    When with troubles you’re beset,
But remember you are facing
    Just what other men have met.
You may fail, but fall still fighting;
    Don’t give up, whate’er you do;
Eyes front, head high to the finish.
    See it through!

 

- Edgar A. Guest

Enthusiasm in our

Daily work lightens effort

It’s not whether

You get knocked down,

Most people fail in life

Not because they

Aim too high and miss,

But because they

Aim too low and hit.

061523 Got Insurance?

“If my father had a life insurance policy,

We would not have to work ourselves to

The bone and sacrifice our physical and

Emotional well-being to keep up with

Expenses.”

– Emily Trader, whose father

Died without life insurance

 

Read Emily’s story at this link…

 

https://lifehappens.org/recipient/emily-trader/

 

With Father’s Day 2023 rapidly approaching

I got to thinking about how many fathers

Don’t have any personal life insurance coverage

Of any kind… they are just like Emily Trader’s

Father.

 

I am sure he was a good man.

 

A good man who failed to financially prepare

For his passing from this earth life.

 

You may be self-insured I know a few

Fathers who don’t need my services because

They have been wise with their financial

Resources they have already paid for their

Final expenses at the funeral home with

Cash.

 

If you are in need of life insurance

Coverage I offer whole life and

Term life and take pleasure

In assisting with final expense

Coverage.

 

Life Insurance is usually

Cheaper than you think.

 

If I could be a blessing to you.

061423 quotes

The extension of the positive

Characteristics of a father can

Contribute more to the healing

Of a nation than all the money-

Laden do good programs combined.

It is these caring, compassionate,

Respectful and loving attributes

That can not only encourage and

Heal a family, but can be extended

Outward to a neighborhood, a town,

A city, a territory, a region, and a

Country.

- Byron R. Pulsifer

 

If you want the best

The world has to offer,

Offer the world your best."

- Neale Donald Walsch

 

Love and kindness are never wasted.

They always make a difference.

They bless the one, who receives them,

And they bless you, the giver.

- Barbara De Angelis

 

How you experience your life

Depends on how you look at it.

If you look at it as a constant

Stream of difficulties and challenges,

Messes and problems,

It will show up that way.

If, on the other hand,

You see it as a continuing flow

Of good fortune,

One good thing after another,

That is what you will encounter.

- Neale Donald Walsch

I have repeatedly stated and

Emphatically declared that

The key to the restoration and

Preservation of a sane and

Healthy society is the salvaging

Of the male, especially as a

Responsible father.

What you do with your life

And how you do it is not only

Helped to make you who

To master one's own temper.

others may follow in the

years to come.

To think bad thoughts is really

the easiest thing in the world.

If you leave your mind to itself

it will spiral down into ever

increasing unhappiness.

To think good thoughts, however,

Requires effort.

This is one of the things that discipline…

training… is about.

- James Clavell
