AT THE BEACH

Two questions are on my mind at the present time.

Who likes to answer questions? I do, sometimes. Are questions not asked to be answered?

THE FIRST QUESTION:

“Have a problem on your hands and need someone in your corner?”

I am looking at the question just now. An advert in one of our local papers, NORTHERN NEWS, February 10, 2016, that is today, asks the question.

I think we all have problems  on our hands and we need someone in our corner.

In the March 24, 2012 number – that is some time back – of the magazine called THE PEOPLE’S FRIEND, the editor listed a catalogue of grievances: A pipe burst at the back of the house, a tile fell off the roof and the car battery died.

Other problems are accidents and illnesses.

What is your list at the present time? Things are happening to us. They are also described as the tyranny of circumstances.

THE SECOND QUESTION:

I found the second question in the WAR CRY, issue 6635, the magazine of The Salvation Army.

Mark Batterson asks: “What if you approached every person, every situation, every challenge as if Christ were in your corner?”

I know my answer to the second question, but what is your answer?
