A Cure For Shot Nerves

June 3, 2023

Thinking of something to encourage those who read this blog, I chose a book on hymns, “Then Sings My Soul” by Robert J. Morgan.
He wrote a forward “The Cure For Shot Nerves”. Thinking that is a catchy title, I read what he wrote about how the old hymns can calm the spirit and help bring peace to the soul.

It is rare in some churches to even hear the old hymns anymore and that is sad.
“In the Garden” He walks with me/ and He talks with me/ and tells me I am His own.
“Jesus Loves Me”, “Amazing Grace”, “I Need Thee Every Hour” and many more that encourage the heart.

Today, if you are stressed, feeling overwhelmed, or just plan discouraged, think of your favorite hymn and sing it, hum it or just let it flood your mind with how good God is, and soon you will find the comfort you need.

Jesus, Our Savior and Healer

May 31, 2023

Jesus is able and willing to save us from all our sins, just as He did with the man who suffered from palsy.

Jesus not only forgave him of his sin, Jesus healed the man and he walked out completely whole. What a wonderful Savior.

Memorial Day Weekend

May 27, 2023
John 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

As America celebrates Memorial Day, we pay tribute to those who have given their lives in our nation’s wars.

This is not just a weekend to have a picnic or party with friends and relatives, but a time to remember we are free in America because of the men and women who have fought and some died to give us that freedom.

Take time in your busy schedule to pray for our troops and if you have someone in the service call, message or text them to thank them for there service.

John 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

Brighten Someone’s Life Today!

May 26, 2023

There is a little song “Brighten the Corner Where You Are”.

“Do not wait until some deed of greatness you may do,
Do not wait to shed your light afar,
To the many duties ever near you now be true,
Brighten the corner where you are.

Brighten the corner where you are!
Brighten the corner where you are!
Someone far from harbor you may guide across the bar;
Brighten the corner where you are!”

Today why don’t you encourage someone with a phone call, text message, note or a simple smile may make someone’s day brighter. Maybe a single Mom, a lonely person, a friend who struggling with a problem or a stranger who needs a friendly greeting. You will be the one who gets a blessing along with the person you are encouraging.

Prayer

May 23, 2023

Jesus prayed often, and He gave us what we call the Lord’s prayer.

If you have difficulty finding something to pray about pray the prayer that God gave us. In that prayer is what we need every day.

We need food, we need forgiveness of our daily sins, we need to forgive others. Everything we need is in this prayer.

Most important of all we need to to honor our Heavenly Father in everything we do.

Once we start praying we will know what additional things we need to pray about.

Why?

May 22, 2023
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28

Do you ever ask that question? Yesterday, Carolyn Curtis, cofounder of SOS ministry, was all ready to go to church. Everything went wrong. The worst thing was her home in Florida was extremely hot. Then she realized that her air conditioning was not working.

What to do on a Sunday? Usually it takes a long time for repairman to come so she called the company that installed the air conditioner to get an appointment.

All ready to go to church, in the car about a mile from the house when her phone rang. It was the repairman who said, “I will be there in 20 minutes.”

Stephanie and Carolyn turned the car around and headed back to the house. Why? What reason would there be for not being able to attend church?

The young repairman got to the house, and at first could find nothing wrong. But Dylan was a conscious person and decided to look again.

Thankfully, he did find the problem and resolved it. Why did all this happen on Sunday morning?

Carolyn took just a few minutes to explain the “ 3 Things God Can Not Do“.

God is in control and the great blessing Dylan invited. Jesus into his heart to be his Savior.

Whenever you’re hindered from doing something you know is right, remember God is in control and He has something more important for you to do.

When Things Are Not Right!

May 18, 2023

What do you do when things don’t go right in your life?

Today if you look at our website, something is wrong. For some reason it is not looking like it is supposed to look. The heading is gone and it is a mess.

The problem is, we don’t know how to fix it. However, there are people who do have the knowledge to make it right. We will call them and the problem should be fixed soon.

In life we face problems, too. We don’t know how to fix them but we have a Heavenly Father who is waiting for us to call on Him. God is the only one who can fix a broken heart, take away sin, and give us peace in the time of trouble. Today, call on Him with any problem you have.
