Psalm 118:8It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man. (KJV) I Believe There is a great difference in saying something---and having something to say. I Believe Be a good steward---and trust God’s faithfulness. I Believe Today---be alert for that one who needs a smile, a kind word, or a helping hand. I Believe Consider the blameless, observe the upright; a future awaits those who seek peace. Psalm 37:37. I Believe Some things are quite elementary, such as; build your house on a firm foundation, so when (not if) the storms come---your house will stand. I Believe Im all for progress; its change I object to. Mark Twain . I Believe We can believe what we choose. We are answerable for what we choose to believe. Ben Blanton (St. Charles). Psalm 34:17 The righteous cry, and the LORD hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. (KJV Ad.)

Proverbs 17:22, ESV A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones* .An overweight colleague of mine decided it was time to shed some excess pounds. He took his new diet seriously, even changing his driving route to avoid his favorite bakery. One morning, however, he arrived at work carrying a gigantic coffeecake. We all scolded him, but his smile remained cherubic. This is a very special coffeecake, he explained. I accidentally drove by the bakery this morning and there in the window were a host of goodies. I felt this was no accident, so I prayed, Lord, if you want me to have one of those delicious coffeecakes, let me have a parking place directly in front of the bakery. And sure enough, he continued, the eighth time around the block, there it was!* Sunday School @ 10:00 AM, Worship in Song and Preaching @ 10:50 AM & 6:00 PM & Wednesday Bible Study @ 6:00 PM Local T.
