There is, today, a move away from the deep endearing knowledge of God and what He wants us to know. We are shallow in knowledge, relationship and living. We can no longer call our selves Christians because we do not pass the test of "Christ like." We want what we want and tend to move through the buffet line of the Bible, picking and choosing our desires. By this we allow our selves to indulge in worldly thought and actions.
We are called to be a separate people, distinct from the world and its practices. Those that call themselves Christians today practice worldly things and are no longer identifiable as Christians.

What a miserable existence we have when our lives do not reflect these values.
Dr. Robert McCurry – 1986
**{1} Once all villagers decided to pray for rain; on the day of prayer all the people gathered, but only one boy came with an umbrella.**
That’s FAITH**
** {2} When you throw a baby in the air, she laughs because she knows you will catch her.**
That’s TRUST**
** {3} Every night we go to bed, without any assurance of being alive the next morning, but still we set the alarms to wake up.**
That’s HOPE**
** {4} We plan big things for tomorrow in spite of zero knowledge of the future.**
That’s CONFIDENCE**
** {5} We see the world suffering, but still we get married and have children.**
That’s LOVE**
** {6} On an old man’s shirt was written a sentence ‘I am not 90 years old: I am sweet 16 with 74 years experience!’**
That’s ATTITUDE**
May you always have love to share, health to spare & friends who care.
