To win a copy of RUTH AND BILLY GRAHAM, tell us why Jesus is good news for the world.

The answer is in the BIBLE:

“But the angel said to them, ‘Do not not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord.'” – Luke 2:10,11

Let me ask you a question:

Do you belong to those people who love nothing more than to hear their names and to be given compliments?

I am learning that that is the case with most people.

But I don’t think I belong to those people.

There is nothing I love more than to hear the name of JESUS!

When I looked up the First Lines, Refrains & Titles in the book REDEMPTION HYMNS I found the hymns with the following titles:

1. “Jesus has loved me, wonderful Saviour”

Names

2. “Jesus is all the world to me”

3. “Jesus is our shepherd”

4. “Jesus loved Even Me”

5. “Jesus saves”

6. “Jesus the sinner’s Friend”

7. “Jesus your blood and righteousness”

8. “Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,

Sweetest name I know,

Fills my every longing,

Keeps me singing as I go.”

I am rather surprised when people call me by my name. It surprises me that they remember who I am. Some people must have a very good memory!

WORLD ELDER ABUSE AWARENESS DAY

 15 June

“Always Respected Never Abused”

“Respect not threats”

THE BIBLE:

“Rise in the presence of the aged, show respect for the elderly, and revere your God. I am the LORD.”

AT THE BEACH

In my QUIET TIME I am reading the BIBLE from cover to cover and this morning I read the exciting chapter fifteen in the book called Second Kings.

I find the stories of the kings so exciting because I am looking always forward to find out if the next king does right or evil in the eyes of the LORD.

1.  AZARIAH was king of Judah and “he did what was right”. Second Kings 15:3

Read on and find out what is said about the next king!

2.  ZECHARIAH was king of Israel and “he did evil”. Second Kings 15:9

How sad.

3.  MENAHEM was king of Israel and “he did evil”. Second Kings 15:8

How sad.

4.  PEKAHIAH was king of Israel and “he did evil”. Second Kings 15:24

How sad.

5.  PEKAH was king of Israel and “he did evil”. Second Kings 15:28

How sad.

6.  JOTHAM was king of Judah and “he did what was right”. Second Kings 15:34

I am glad.

What will be written or said about us after we are dead?

“He [she] did right in the eyes of the LORD” or “He [she] did evil in the eyes of the LORD?”

And yes, I am interested in the Football World Cup and was pleased when I received

A FOOTBALL WORLD CUP SCHEDULE 13TH JUNE – 14TH JULY 2014

when I bought a newspaper today. 

On the schedule I am reading:

“Only 8 teams have ever won the Football World Cup: Brazil, Italy, GERMANY, Uruguay, Argentina, England, France and reigning champions Spain.”
