Isn’t It Funny…

Funny how simple it is for people to trash God, and then wonder why the world’s going to hell. Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible says. Funny how everyone wants to go to heaven, provided they do not have to believe, think, say, or do anything the Bible says. Funny how someone can say “I believe in God,” but still follow Satan who, by the way, also “believes” in God. Funny how we are quick to judge, but not to be judged. Funny how you can send a thousand ‘jokes’ through e-mail and...

God’s Plan

Some things we may not understand, But this one thing is clear; We reap the things which we have sown, In joy or bitter tears. God made us good, just like Himself, And planned that we should sow; His righteousness day after day, That nobly we should grow. We failed the Lord in His good plan, Forbidden fruit we ate; And thus the penalty of death, Became our final fate.

The Sneeze

They walked in tandem, each of the ninety-two students filing into the already crowded auditorium. With their rich maroon gowns flowing … and the traditional caps, they looked almost as grown up as they felt. Dads swallowed hard behind broad smiles, and Moms freely brushed away tears.

They gave inspirational and challenging speeches, but no one mentioned divine guidance and no one asked...

Forever With the Lord

Forever with the Lord! Amen; so let it be, Life from the dead is in that word, ‘Tis immortality. Here in the body pent, Absent from him I roam, Yet nightly pitch my moving tent A day’s march nearer home. My Father’s house on high, Home of my soul, so near, At times, to faith’s far-seeing eye Thy golden gates appear! Yet clouds will intervene, And all my prospect flies, Like Noah’s dove, I flit between Rough seas and stormy skies. And the clouds depart, The winds and waters cease, While sweetly o’er my gladdend heart Expands the bow of...

The Barber

A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut and his beard trimmed. As the barber began to work, they began to have a good conversation. They talked about so many things and various subjects. When they eventually touched on the subject of God, the barber said: “I don’t believe that God exists.” “Why do you say that?” asked the customer. “Well, you just have to go out in the street to realize that God doesn’t exist. Tell me, if God exists, would there be so many sick people? Would there be abandoned children? If God existed, there...
