Rejoice Evermore

"Rejoice evermore."

I Thessalonians 5:16

 When I was thinking about what I should post this week, this verse popped into my head. It is so short and simple, and I thought I had already touched on similar ideas recently, but as I continued thinking and praying, this is the verse that stayed in my head.  

    We are to rejoice always. This verse says that in two words. One of the shortest verses in the Bible gives us one of the commands that we have the most trouble with! We seem to forget that God is in control of everything that happens and that He isn't surprised by things like we are. When 'accidents' happen (nothing is an accident to God- everything is part of His plan) don't get all bent out of shape about it. 

    Don't be a grumpy person! No one will want to be around you! And a happy Christian is a good witness! If the world sees a bunch of Christians going around like the world is coming to an end, why would they want to be a Christian? 

    This is very short and feels a little repetitive, but this is what I think God wanted me to say this week. I hope it has been an encouragement to someone!

It's here!! After many months of much hard work by many people, it's finally done! Thank you to everyone who acted, played, sang, filmed, edited, worked behind the scenes and so many more things! Thank you especially for those of you who had to redo scenes due to me forgetting to turn on the mic on the camera...thankfully it didn't turn out to be a silent film.  We all hope you enjoy the movie (sorry, short film, ha-ha)!

Right or Left?

                                                         by Joshua R. Walter of Versailles, Kentucky            Left or Right? You choose. I just wanted to warn you.  “And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.  And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold. And he went on his journeys from the south even to Beth-el, into the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Beth-el and Hai; into the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the name of the LORD. And Lot also, which went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents. And the land was not able to bear them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, so that they could not dwell tog...
