Don't Stay away from Church ... #3

... because you have company. They will admire you if you bring them, or ask that they wait until your return.

.. because you need an occasional weekend vacation. You should not allow your soul a vacation from God.

... because your clothes are not good.Th church isn't supposed to be a fashion show.

... because the church standard is too high. Take  look at the Bible standard if you think ours is high.

Don't Stay away from Church ... #2

Don't Stay away from Church ... #2

... because no one invited you. You go to the movies without an invitation.
... because you have little children. Suppose you didn't have them? We havea nursery.
... because you don't like the preacher. He's human like you.
... because your job makes your tired. You could lose it.
... because there are hypocrites. You're with them daily.

Don't Stay away from Church ... #1

...because you are poor. There is no admission fee.
... because you are rich. We can help you cure that.
... because it rains. You go to work in the rain.
... because it is hot. So is the golf course.
... because it is cold. It's warm and friendly inside.

Lincoln - The face of God

I never behold (the heavens filled with stars) that I do not feel I am looking in the face of God. I can see how it might be possible for a man to look down on the earth and be an atheist, but I cannot conceive how he could look up into the heavens and say there is no God.  - Abraham Lincoln

What would change if ...

your church had no building in which to meet?
your church had no hymnals?
your church had no musical instruments?
your church had no baptistry?
your church had no ushers?
your church had no choir?
your church had no creeds?
your church had no New Testament?

How to be Happy

Keep your heart free from hate, your mind from worry. Live simply, expect little, give much, sing often, pray often. Keep the Lord first in your heart.

Fill your life with love, scatter sunshine, forget self, think of others. Do as you would by done by.

These are the tried links in contentment's golden chain.

(Kiwanis Support of Churches Committee)

Doubt vs Faith

Doubt sees the obstacles, faith sees the way;

Doubt sees the darkest night, faith sees the day;

Doubt dreads to take a step, faith soars on high;

Doubt questions, "Who believes?"

Faith answers "I""
