An Epistle from Paul:

We Walk by Faith! – We sang a song yesterday that had the phrase: we walk by faith and not by sight. All of which reminded me about an article I read years ago. It is from this article I got the idea to write the following.

There are two types of people in the world today: those who walk by faith and those who walk by sight. Which are you? Take the following “test” to determine if you don’t know:1. Do I look for reasons why something can’t be done instead of

searching for ways in which it can be done?2. Do I make decisions out of fear?3. Do I tend to resist new ideas and prefer to do things the way I

have always done them?4. Do I move ahead only when I have every single fact?5. Do I have a tendency to demand a guarantee of success before I

begin a large project?6. Do I imagine the opposition I will encounter without imagining

the support I might expect?7. Do I ever close my mind to a suggestion before hearing the full

explanation?8. Do I focus on the drawbacks to a new idea before considering

the advantages?9. Do I believe human nature can’t be altered; that a man’s life

cannot be changed for the good?2 Corinthians 5:6-7 says, “Therefore, being always of good

courage, and knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord – for we walk by faith, not by sight.”

In His Marvelous Love, Paul

Saturday, August 13th, 6 to 8 PM!In an effort to kick off our Fall Youth Groups, we will be renting the brand new Eaton pool and be hosting a pool party. Everyone is invited to come and enjoy the pool, food and fellowship. We hope to have papers put together to pass out giving updated information concerning this Fall’s Youth Groups. Having just finished VBS, we thought this would be a great time and venue to carry the enthusiasm from the Friday night carnival of VBS right on to the youth groups meeting this coming Fall. Again, you can be a BIG

Van Update! The picture at the right will give you and idea of the van we are presently hoping to be able to purchase in the near future. It will be a fifteen passenger (no CDL needed) with easy entrance and exit. It will be cheaper to insure because of the dual wheels in the back and will be more economical to run as it will be a disel engine. As soon as we know the final detail concerning this matter. Keep this in your prayers!!!
