“Set your mind on things above,

not on things on the earth.”

~Colossians 3:2, NKJV~

Holly K. had a motoscooter (her form of transportation) accident in western Africa.  God provided a mud puddle for a soft landing.  Thank God for watching over her.

Mr. Billy Brabham is feeling much better.  Thanks for your prayers on his behalf.

Swimming pools were God’s answer

Swimming pools were God’s answer
The mayor of a city in Turkey decided to build swimming pools all over the city.  It was a great idea.  There are many canals in the city and children used to try swimming in the canals.  It was dirty and dangerous.  That’s why the mayor built the pools.

And God is using the pools that the mayor built!  There is a new pool in a neighborhood where a Christian family lives.  They have prayerwalked their streets of their neighborhood once a month for over a year.  They asked God and asked God for a way to make friends and get to tell them about Jesus.

You got it—they meet new friends at the pool.  The pools are an answer to prayer.  This Christian family asks us to pray: “Dear God, we pray that You will help these neighbors in Turkey learn more about You.  We pray that they will  tell others about Jesus too. God, please help the Christians be good witnesses of Your love.”

“At the name of Jesus every knee should bow…” Philippians 2:10
Mike Benson, Editor
THE STORY IS told of a father who took his two boys one afternoon to play miniature golf…
The father walked up to the man at the ticket counter and said, “How much is it to get in?”
The young man replied, “Three dollars for you and three dollars for any kid who is older than six.  We let them in for free if they are six or younger.  How old are your two?”
The father replied, “This one is three and the other one is seven, so I owe you $6.00.”

The young man at the ticket counter said, “Hey mister, did you just win the lottery or something?  You could have saved yourself three bucks if you would have told me that the older one was six; I wouldn’t have known the difference.”

The father replied, “Yes, that may be true, but the kids would have known the difference…”  (Steve Higginbotham)

“The integrity of the upright will guide them…”
