WEDNESDAY

A person’s wisdom yields patience; it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.

Proverbs 19:11

(It is important to us to “Shake it off”, Forget it”, “Move on”, and “Focus on something else”. The Bible tells us so in Proverbs 19:11.)

HEALTH CONCERNS

Bro. Darryl Miller got a good report Monday. He’s back at work at the office and in the community. Thank God for Bro. Darryl’s good report. Keep praying for him as he is out and about in these HOT temperature days. He puts a lot of miles on his body each week.

Mrs. Velma Anthony is very sick and in the hospital at Covington. She needs our prayers. Please add her to your personal prayer list.
