The story behind…
“Get Right with God”
Growing up in Smallville, U.S.A.
In Dixon, KY just north of town
On Hwy 41-A was a sign nailed
To a tree on the side of the road
Every time we went north
I saw this sign…
Someone had apparently taken
A stop sign and painted the
Following words in big bold letters…
“GET RIGHT WITH GOD”
It made an impression on me.
Personally, I got right with God
49 years ago, when I became a
Christian.
I have used this reminder in the
Bulletin At Barn Creek.
I will still use it although I am
not currently working with a
congregation in the ministry role.
I will continue the Lord willing
to minister via my emails and blogs.

Joy to be Sought Through Christ
“Until now you have not asked
for anything in My name.
Ask and you will receive.
Then your joy will be full.”
John.16:24
Dark and cheerless is the morn,
Unaccompanied by thee;
Joyless is the day's return,
Till thy mercy's beams we see:
Day-spring from on high, be near;
Day-star, in our hearts appear.

Tell Jesus…
You think that the burden's
Too heavy to bear,
That oft you are having
Much more than your share…
Tell Jesus.
And if you are tempted
To fret and complain,
Remember He's working
Your blessing and gain…
Tell Jesus.
Do friends prove unfaithful?
Do loved ones forsake?
Does sorrow on sorrow
Your heart fairly break?
Tell Jesus.
No matter what trial
May fall to your lot,
Don't fail to remember
His love faileth not…
Tell Jesus.

Oh, what a fountain of mercy is flowing,
Down from the crucified Savior of men.
Precious the blood that He shed to redeem us,
Grace and forgiveness for all of our sin.
