Stay Out Of It!
READ:
1 Timothy 5:17-25Do not . . . share in other peoples sins. 1 Timothy 5:22
A Christian man in our community received a promotion that greatly increased his income. His fellow salesmen urged him to upgrade his life through large credit card purchases. Whatever the others did, he didfamily skiing vacations, cruises, new furniture, expensive shopping trips.
Then sales dipped, and he fell behind in his payments. The pressure put his marriage under tremendous strain. His buddies suggested that he do what they did: pad his expense accounts and turn in inflated sales reports. He did, but he became consumed with anxiety and guilt.
A wise Christian friend observed the strain he was under and prayed for him. He then counseled him to face the reality of his situation. The anguished believer finally cried out to God in shame and repentance. He confessed his sin, made things right with his company, and talked about it with his wife. Peace eventually returned to his life.
Pauls instructions to elders in todays passage apply to all believers in Jesus Christ. When so many cultures in the world are driven by pride and greed, the apostles command not to share in other peoples sins (v.22) is timely.
When enticed to join others in wrongdoing, stay out of it!
Sins pleasures have such great appeal,
They truly look like bargains rare;
But seldom do we clearly see
The hidden cost that we must bear. D. De Haan
No one who follows Christ will ever stray from God

Thanks for the memories Kathy. My favorite comic would have to be Red Skelton. I still can remember him from a movie,I think it was called the Yellow Cab Driver. That was so long ago though that I may have totally forgor the name.
He Was One funny man.

As Usual America forgets Joe E Brown. One of only 2 civilians to be awarded the Bronze star in World War 2. He did not serve in the military. However, he traveled over 200,000 miles at his own expense to entertain the troops. He was loved by servicemen and the parents of servicemen. Traveling to Alaska, China, Burma, Brazil, Iran, Iraq, Southeast Asia, Australia, North Africa and other places with just one thing in mind, raising the spirits of American and Alied servicemen. He gave show after show in any conditions and stayed around to sign autographs for everyone. It's dificult to express the accomplislments of one man in just a few paragraphs. 60 years have passed and he is unknown to most Americans but not forgotton by those that knew him.
To: All
A PRAYER OF PROTECTION
The light of God surround you The love of God enfold you The power of God protect you The presence of God watch over you Wherever you are, God is, And all is well. Amen.
BLESS THIS HOUSE Bless this house O Lord we pray; Make it safe by night and day;
Bless these walls so firm and stout, Keeping want and trouble out:
Bless the roof and chimneys tall, Let thy peace lie over all;
Bless this door, that it may prove ever open to joy and love.
Bless these windows shining bright, Letting in God's heav'nly light;
Bless the hearth a'blazing there, with smoke ascending like a prayer;
Bless the folk who dwell within, keep them pure and free from sin;
Bless us all that we may be Fit O Lord to dwell with thee;
Bless us all that one day we May dwell O Lord with thee.
