E ver hear the phrase ldquoMoney makes the world go roundrdquo If you are like most people it seems as if there is never

enough of it to fully achieve your dreams This is the kind of thinking that sabotages lives from maximizing potential What most people lack is understanding and a plan As we dig in on this next Impact area in the Life Balance series I hope you will take a minute to reflect on what your beliefs are about the subject of money I have heard some who actually believe that having too much money is a sin while others believe that success in life is defined by the amount money one has These are two extreme opposites that I hope to challenge Some teachers preach that Jesus was poor because he was born in a mere stable To carry His cross we too must be poor Dear friends and saints Jesus was not poor His parents were not poor The scriptures tell us that there was no room at the inn which is why Mary and Joseph were offered the stable where the animals were kept under cover and protected from the elements It seems obvious they were prepared to pay the appropriate cost for a room or there would not have even been the conversation We also learn from scripture that magi (wise men) brought valuable gifts of frankincense gold and myrrh to Jesus when he was very young Some scholars speculate that these treasures seeded Jesusrsquos ministry And what poor person needs a treasurer We know from scripture that Judas was the disciple who managed the ministryrsquos money At the other end of the spectrum a person who stops at nothing to gain massive wealth just for the sake of being rich is not pleasing to the Lord ldquoNo one can serve two masters Either you will hate the one and love the other or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other You cannot serve both God and moneyrdquo LUKE 1613 (NIV) ldquoThose who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil Some people eager for money have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs But you man of God flee from all this and pursue righteousness godliness faith love endurance and gentlenessrdquo 1 TIMOTHY 69-11 (NIV) God does not want people to live in lack and want or in poverty He wants to bless each of us but our hearts must remain set on His will and His ways not on our own If we are fearful or greedy we cannot achieve true financial blessing He has told us through scripture how to treat money We must first take a look at all our possessions in a whole new way Everything belongs to the Lord It is not ours When

we leave this earth we will not be able to take anything with us God tells us ldquofor every animal of the forest is mine and the cattle on a thousand hills I know every bird in the mountains and the insects in the fields are mine If I were hungry I would not tell you for the world is mine and all that is in itrdquo PSALM 50 10-12 (NIV) We are not to clench onto everything with tight fists Instead we are to give generously starting with our tithe A tithe as defined in the Old Testament is 10 of our earning to the Lord It comes with a promise ldquoBring the whole tithe into the storehouse that there may be food in my house Test me in thisrdquo says the LORD Almighty ldquoand see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heav-en and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it I will prevent pests from devouring your crops and the vines in your fields will not drop their fruit before it is riperdquo says the LORD Almighty MALACHI 310-11 (NIV) I have been training families on household budgeting for many years through Paparsquos Pantry and The Masterrsquos Training Center There are many current day opinions of how tithing should be approached My advice is to take tithing seriously especially if you are having financial trouble This decision is between you and God A common response from tithers is ldquoYou cannot out-give Godrdquo They say this out of their own personal experiences I have seen this principle work in my own life Upon hearing this principle and promise many who face financial challenges decide to start with an ongoing specific amount or percentage If this is how you plan to begin I urge you to stay committed to increase your offering to God until the 10 is achieved ldquoOfferingsrdquo are your gifts above and beyond a tithe It is all His remember Money management is also in order This means tracking

Your Money Time to Get Real


income and expenses Every dollar has a name which identifies its specific purpose for example the dollars earned might be called ldquorentrdquo or ldquomortgagerdquo dollars They cannot and should never be spent on other things This same concept goes for every expense your household faces ldquoSuppose one of you wants to build a tower Wonrsquot you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it LUKE 1428 (NIV) An important question to ask is ldquoDo you earn enough to pay for the lifestyle you are leadingrdquo In the budget training I use a simple Microsoft Excel spread-sheet with 2 worksheets The first one with a basic bookkeeping ldquoTrdquo - income on one side and expenses on the other (See the example below on the left) You can format the spreadsheet to add each column This will tell you immediately if you earn enough and give you the opportunity to experiment with endless ldquoifthenrdquo scenarios If you do not know how to use this software then get a piece of paper pencil and calculator It is also important to realize that expenses should be categorized between Needs Wants and Luxuries Of course immediate needs should always be prioritized over whimsical impulsive purchases Needs include food shelter transportation medical and church giving if you have made that decision Non-fixed categories may be budgeted for instance groceries utilities and even gasoline Meal planning and couponing will make food costs more manageable Keeping the thermostat adjusted to 68 in the winter and 78 in the summer will help control monthly bills Set a timer to limit the length of showers to save water Gasoline is one area that is difficult because prices go up and down without warning Batch errands with driving to and from work when possible to avoid overusing ldquobudgetedrdquo tank fulls Wants and Luxuries include everything else Manicures multiple family member cell phone and data plans cable lottery tickets cigarettes alcoholic beverages vacations restaurant dining fast food coffee shop visits even junk food and desserts from the grocery storehellip am I stepping on any toes

Once this first worksheet has been completed you will know if you need to make immediate changes There are only two ways to bring a budget in line 1) increase income andor 2) decrease expenses

Hopefully there is money that is being strategically put into savings on a regular scheduled basis Dave Ramsey teaches that $1000 in an emergency savings fund is the first baby step in achieving Financial Peace The second step is paying off all credit cards and loans

ldquoDishonest money dwindles away but whoever gathers money little by little makes it growrdquo PROVERBS 1311 (NIV)

Cash Flow management is the second important step in managing a household budget which is where the second spreadsheet comes in The format follows the same columns found in the old fashion check registers The beauty of using an Excel spreadsheet is that the last column can be easily programmed to add or subtract the expense or deposit Rather than using this to simply record past history it is meant to be a forward thinking planning tool At your starting point go to your online bank account and determine your ldquoDaily Ending Balancerdquo not the ldquoavailable balancerdquo The Daily Ending Balance amount will always be found later which is necessary to ldquobalancerdquo or reconcile the bank account with the spreadsheet The Available Balance may never appear again as pending transactions often clear the bank in a different order than actually spent or listed People often go to an ATM to determine what the bank says is available to determine their spending This leads to over drafts as the bank is not always tracking what is spent and cannot con-ceivably be able to know what checks if any have been written The next steps are to determine the actual dates paychecks are expected and when money will be available to spend Put the estimated amounts in the spreadsheet Then consult your bills and locate the due dates and amounts to be paid Plug those numbers in appropriately The spreadsheet below is strictly an example of how cash flow may be set up Chances are that your spreadsheet will show things in a completely different order based on your household

While I am not an expert on being a

Christian as a work-in-progress myself I would

like to share a few thoughts on it No one says it is

easy to be a Christian In fact it requires daily

practice and constant reminder of how we should think

act behave and follow Jesus Christ One tenant of the

faith is to ldquoturn the other cheekrdquo I think many

Christians have turned either too quickly or too far and

there is a tendency not to ldquopush backrdquo as secularists

liberals and progressives push Christian beliefs and

practices to the margins if not over a cliff

To say there is not a war on Christianity in this

country is to ignore the political creep that has taken

place over the past 50 years with calls today to remove

ldquoIn God We Trustrdquo from the national currency remove

any symbols of Christianity from public buildings or pro-

nouncements and neutralize commonly accepted names

such as Easter Break and Christmas Break On this last

point I would argue this ndash if we are going to call it

Winter Break why have it at all It is not a celebration

of winter and in educational progress for students it is

both unnecessary and counterproductive if you believe

that school should be in session all year long

My point is this ndash it is time for Christians to stand up

and push back this ldquoprogressiverdquo creep Most Christians

hesitate to do this because the other side immediately

attacks with aggression and derision and the Christian

response is to turn the other cheek This is a mistake

because the secularists now conclude that we have no

conviction in our beliefs and that they have won the

argument or the day

This marginalization of Christianity is a startling

shift in

this country from the days of our Founding Fathers

When this country was founded the Founding Fathers

were mostly men with deep personal religious beliefs

Of the 55 delegates to the Constitutional Convention 51

were Christians by its more general definition which

encompasses Methodists Catholics Lutherans Dutch

Reformed Presbyterians Episcopalians Protestants

Congregationalists and Church of England The

remaining 4 were Deists or theistic rationalists All of

these are religions based in a belief of God Almighty

Their beliefs in God are woven in and throughout the

Bill of Rights and Constitution without specifically

referencing God in every phrase

However what has been occurring slowly over that

last 50 years with those documents and biblical defense

itself and with greater enthusiasm is the presence of

compromise and the absence of principle Each

compromise on our Christian beliefs chips away at the

credibility of those beliefs here on earth in the eyes of

non-believers Why should they choose to believe when

believers give up so easily

You need look no further than moral issues brought

before the Supreme Court Roe v Wade is as clear an

example as anyone needs What Roe v Wade did was

allow individuals to rationalize a moral decision by

ldquolegallyrdquo shifting responsibility for their actions from

In a Word By Tim Grady


themselves to the state In other words if it is ldquolegalrdquo to

do a thing then morality be damned The same ration-

alization is happening with the gay marriage argument

Gay partners want equal rights and equal recognition of

their relationship status dictated by the Supreme Court

Obviously based upon Scripture it will not be endorsed

by God

Think about ldquoSupreme Courtrdquo for a moment It is a

human construct It is not ldquoSupremerdquo at all but simply

the Court of Last Resort in the United States The Unit-

ed States Supreme Court has no legal or moral standing

in other countries across the planet And the only truly

supreme authority does not maintain His court here on

earth And this is where it is tough to be a Christian

because our biblical arguments are on a different plane

than earthly debates but we are called to share our be-

liefs in the face of earthly issues that will not be ulti-

mately resolved or judged here on earth Therefore

our arguments against abortion gay marriage and oth-

er ldquomoral choicesrdquo sound ldquoholier than thourdquo and fall flat

As a result our enjoyment of our Christian practices

is being eroded by the growing numbers of non-believers

who want their choices accepted recognized or rational-

ized here on earth on an equal plane with the constructs

of God and are very aggressive about defending their

beliefs and choices I wonder where we would be as a

nation if Christians were as aggressive and passionate

about their beliefs here on earth Would it make us less

Christian if we gave real pushback to these moral

compromises Or is recognizing that our arguments are

simply on a different plane and should not be used in

human morality debates the true meaning of ldquothe meek

shall inherit the earthrdquo After all the Bible says that

some will be saved which implies that some will not

Perhaps life is merely a place for evangelism and

turning the other cheek in simply sensible I conclude

that we are like waiters and waitresses who offer others

something to drink and if they refuse we donrsquot pour it

over their heads

H ow big is your heart for Jesus Having a heart for the things God cares about is the source of

motivation for waking up fully charged willing and able to live each day to the fullest Do you want to wake up excited to face the day Make a choice to realign your priorities Do you want to move from sleepy eyed to fully motivated I heard a preacher talk on Matt 2636 NKJV Then Jesus came with them to a place called Geth-semane and said to the disciplesrdquo Sit here while I go and pray over thererdquo V 41 NKJV ldquoWatch and pray lest you enter into tempta-tion The spirit indeed is willing but the flesh is weakrdquo The disciples were in the garden and Jesus asked them to stand watch and pray for Him They fell asleep They were not charged up and focused on the request of their Savior They lacked discipline Hmmhellip Disciples that lack discipline I canrsquot count the number of times I purposed to pray and read scripture and woke up later not remem-bering how or when I fell asleep I have also made decisions to eat healthier exercise more waste less timehellip only to realize that I had made no progress in any of my good intentions The spirit is willing and just like the disciples the flesh is weak Even though I have heard it for years I am beginning to understand that we have to KNOW WHO WE ARE and WHY we want to make positive changes in our lives Hopefully the understanding of the mecha-nism of the thought processhellip or lack of will propel us into a victorious future that begins with the de-velopment of a plan If you were stopped and asked to show your ldquoIDrdquo identification we would see who you are by name address age and donor status BUT WHO ARE YOU REALLY Romans 611 NASB Even so consider your-selves to be dead to sin but alive to God in

Christ Jesus My Identity is IN CHRIST I am motivated by a love for people and advancing the Kingdom of God I use my time to take care of myself so that I can serve others I must make decisions that support that goal I strive to take every thought captive and act upon them based on my ID A predetermined pur-pose allows for strength in times of temptation If you know who you are and what your purpose is you will not be derailed by thoughts that direct you away from your goals to serve God Our lives are an accumulation of consequences resulting from ac-

tions originated by decisions based on thoughts We have thoughts popping into our mind and we usually recognize our own voice in them Usually we are pon-dering a decision making an observation or singing lyrics to some pop song that torturously got stuck in our head Mine is usually Taylor Swiftrsquos ldquoWe are never ever everhellip getting back togetherrdquo YIKES In addi-tion to the day to day processing necessary to do life we are also faced with ldquotemptation thoughtsrdquo in which we must choose yes or no We make our choice we sow an action we then reap a consequence 1 Cor 1013 NASB No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man and God is Faithful who will not allow you to be tempted be-yond what you are able but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also so that you will be able to endure it If you know who you are and you have a plan based on your identity you will have decided ahead of time what your response will be Know who you are and what you stand for so you can align your immediate choice with your identity If your ID is IN CHRIST your choices are easy and the Spirit of the Living God guides you in the direction that is consistent with your purpose Lis-ten for that still small voice If you have decided to make some changes you probably are aware that there is a period of time to acclimate to a new routine When we institute a NEW healthier re-gime on a NEW DAY and take control of our life with discipline and excitement we will be faced with a battle against OLD habits Letrsquos talk about this familiar battle The battle will be in thought form An argument may ensue with the consideration of acting on a temptation followed with a justification to try to compromise the process of change in order to satisfy some craving of the flesh The temptation might be a dessert a drink fried hot wings a malicious thought the urge to gossip an attitude of forgiveness or the urge to blow off a hike and watch a movie instead Time for a WARNING Laziness is just leisure taken to an extreme We love our ME time We can be addicted

to leisure That one can sneak up on us Leisure is rooted in selfishness and does rob us of Kingdom related produc-tivity and opportunities to serve others When we put ourselves first we may very well be robbing someone of a blessing God may have intended to use us to participate in serving another that day Everyone misses the bless-ing and we lose focus of our goals The beauty of a walk with God is that He directs those blessings on a day by day basis A miracle can happen in an instant when you trust Him and walk with Him on this journey How many sitcoms or movies would you give up to see one soul saved to an eternity in heaven When I consider the sacrifice Jesus made for me my own selfish demands fade quickly His Sacrifice = Godrsquos greatest moments in life My sacri-fice Sharing those great God moments with others The potential for miracles is there everyday I donrsquot want to miss a miracle They are rooted in Godrsquos LOVE for us When we choose to act on a temptation we usually find a way to justify the behavior and try to find a way to make up for it If I drink this milkshake I have to run 5 miles to burn off the calories I just consumed If I eat this de-sert I will pay with 30 more minutes on the elliptical ma-chine This ldquocatch back uprdquo mentality weakens our re-solve and tests our character It also reduces our availa-bility to be productive in other ways because our schedule is filled with ldquomake upsrdquo and we become BUSY trying to lose what we really didnrsquot intend to consume Our convic-tion suffers our schedule suffers and we become burnt out from the process If we donrsquot undo the lsquopotentialrsquo conse-quences the accumulative effect is unhealthy weight gain and discouragement If we indulge in gossip or critical thoughts we reap unnecessary drama and relational strife Then we spend time mending relationships that might have been fine if we had kept our criticisms in check aka mind our own business Temptations throw disorder and chaos into the plan and derail our vision 2 Cor 1311 NASB Finally Brethren rejoice be made complete be comforted be likeminded live in peace and the God of love and peace will be with you This is a plan that may help put structure into your thought process Your plan shouldnrsquot become a list of laws God loves you exactly where you are now and He wonrsquot love you more or less if you change or donrsquot change a thing The purpose is to find Joy and Happiness from having a productive life of service and witness miracles as God works through you YOU are His hands and feet and voice of Love Being healthy is imperative to being available to serve Winning the mental battles is where it all starts Start your day with prayer donrsquot fall back asleep Start-ing the day in conversation with your Creator makes you fully equipped to know His will for your life one day at a time This knowledge lends to congruency in all areas of life Most importantly having balance in all areas

I had never been much of a sports fan in the past but in recent years I

have grown to enjoy watching both college and professional football One thing Irsquove noticed about winning teams is that they always have a well

strategized Game Plan As everyone knows winning is not random itrsquos intentional As I think about retirement winning there are many football-winning similarities Simply put one must have a well-strategized and complete Game Plan to enjoy a successful and worry-free retirement In addition to the many factors involved in creating a successful retirement there are 3 key areas that need to be the focus of the Game Plan They include 1) Investments 2) Long Term CareLife Insurance and 3) LegalEstate Planning Letrsquos look at them together 1 Investments The area of investing needs to start with a sound philosophy I

use the long-established Rule of 100 This simply states that as a person ages he or she should assume less risk in their invest-ments This is helpful because as we age there is often not enough time to recover from losses before the next downturn if our investments happen to be exposed to the markets To address this I developed The Complete Portfolio Investment Strategyreg At Hill amp Hill Financial this strategy includes a wide variety of tools that optimize returns when investment conditions are good protect against losses when conditions are not so good and insure sufficient liquidity is available to meet emergency needs 2 Life InsuranceLong Term Care These two areas are critical in the discussion of retirement but most people avoid talking about them Many of us will need some sort of help in our later years The expense for care contin-

ues to rise and because this is a costly need I encourage people to have a plan in place before the need arises A plan may include a number of different strategies For many life insurance can be an effective tool Whether it replaces income as someone passes away or is used as a tool for tax free wealth transfer it can be an effective part of a retirement Game Plan 3 LegalEstate Planning For future or current retirees I refer to a football analogy When a team is at the goal line and ready to score it is not the time to fumble Families want to pass assets successfully to loved ones to leave a fondly remembered legacy To address this we have developed the Balanced Estate Planning Modelreg Our staff and team of licensed attorneys insure that assets pass successfully regardless of whether it may be by probate law or contract This ensures that clientsrsquo wishes are fulfilled with no complications Over the years we have been honored to help quarterback these and many other issues for families throughout Georgia and East-ern Tennessee Itrsquos important to address these mature-life issues to prepare for the right Game Plan before people arrive at the goal post If you find yourself thinking about your personal retirement Game Plan I hope you will give us a call for a complimentary review Also for those seeking a new Game Plan in re-establishing stability after a financial set-back we recommend the many different training opportunities available at Paparsquos Pantry and the Masterrsquos Training Center It is never too late to make fresh decisions that will lead to a better Game Plan and ultimately a brighter future Morgan Hill has been a Towne Lake resident for over20 years and is the Owner and President of Hill amp Hill Financial LLC a wealth preservation and distribution firm He serves on the board of a number of local and international ministries His wife Holly serves on Paparsquos Pantryrsquos Advisory Board Morgan may be reached at 770-672-0402 or morganhillandhillfinancialcom

Your Retirement Game Plan


You will notice weekly reoccurring expenses in the 2nd worksheet example Most families need weekly groceries gasoline child care and church offerings The spreadsheet you create will in-clude only those things that are appropriate to you

Once the first month is completely detailed then ldquocopyrdquo the entire month and ldquopasterdquo it twice to achieve a 3-month forecast Insert quarterly bills as necessary such as garbage pick up or car insur-ance This will help to see with clarity what your basic budget will allow Whenever possible as stated before put money into savings

At some point it is important to begin savinginvesting money for retirement Since I was in my 20rsquos I can remember predications that Social Security would not be around when I would get to the age of retirement The conversations we hear on the news sounds similar some 30 years later We should not get complacent in this area The country was not facing borrowed debt then as it is now Common sense (and the simple budget worksheet example below) would indicate that you cannot spend more than you make

Now more than ever people need to take personal responsibility to save for their retirement If your company offers a 401K pro-gram it is a great idea to invest in it Be sure to maximize your savings investment if the company matches any of your contribu-tions on your behalf

Investing is not a modern day concept Jesus uses the following parable in Matthew

ldquoAgain it will be like a man going on a journey who called his serv-ants and entrusted his wealth to them To one he gave five bags of gold to another two bags and to another one bag each according to his ability Then he went on his journey The man who had received five bags of gold went at once and put his money to work and gained five bags more So also the one with two bags of gold gained two more But the man who had received one bag went off dug a hole in the ground and hid his masterrsquos money After a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them The man who had received five bags of gold brought the other five Master he said lsquoyou entrusted me with five bags of gold See I have gained five morersquo His master replied lsquoWell done good and faithful servant You have been faithful with a few things I will put you in charge of many things Come and share your masterrsquos happinessrsquo ldquoThe man with two bags of gold also came lsquoMasterrsquo he said lsquoyou entrusted me with two bags of gold see I have gained two morersquo His master replied lsquoWell done good and faithful servant You have been faithful with a few things I will put you in charge of many things Come and share your masterrsquos happinessrsquo ldquoThen the man who had received one bag of gold came lsquoMasterrsquo he said lsquoI knew that you are a hard man harvesting where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed So I was afraid and went out and hid your gold in the ground See here is what belongs to yoursquo ldquoHis master replied lsquoYou wicked lazy servant So you knew that I harvest where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed Well then you should have put my money on deposit with the bankers so that when I returned I would have received it back with interest So take the bag of gold from him and give it to the one who has ten bags For whosoever had will be given more and have an abundancerdquo This parable really shows us how the Lord wants us to trust in his ways fully and to not be full of fear especially with money I close with this last thought ldquoTrust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding in all your ways submit to him and he will make your paths straightrdquo PROVERBS 3 5-6 ltgtlt ltgtlt ltgtlt ltgtlt ltgtlt ltgtlt ltgtlt ltgtlt ltgtlt ltgtlt ltgtlt ltgtlt

Organic Gardening

Made Easy

By Carol Thomas

G ardeners of long ago planted

vegetables herbs and flowers

together It was usually a relatively

small garden located close to the

kitchen This type of garden is

sometimes known as a kitchen gar-

den Kitchen gardens have become

very popular again

Companion gardening involves

pairing plants that work well together plants that help each

other out This type gardening uses the ldquopower-of-naturerdquo to

create an organic garden that naturally repels pests looks

beautiful and has increased yields

Native Americans knew the benefits of companion planting

For example Corn provides support for pole beans the pole

beans provides nitrogen for the soil and squash leaves hug the

soil to decrease weeds and evaporation They may have not

known the science behind it but they knew it worked

Use tall sun loving plants to shade cool season crops for

example plant spinach and lettuce between your pepper

plants The peppers will provide shade as the weather gets

warmer and this will extend your harvest of the spinach and

lettuce

Grow plants with deep and shallow roots together Each

vegetable group draws moisture and nutrients at different

levels Shallow rooted plants such as lettuce and onions wonrsquot

compete for soil nutrients when planted among deep-rooted

carrots

Tuck a few extra flowers and herbs among your vegetables to

help with insect control Marigolds repel many species of

insects Plant them around tomatoes to deter green

hornworms Zinnias and salvias attract beneficial bees to help

pollinate your garden Nasturtiums and rosemary deter beetles

that attack beans Thyme repels cabbage worms Chives and

garlic deter aphids Oregano is a good all purpose plant that

deters many insects

There are many good charts and information on the internet

about companion planting Donrsquot get too caught up worrying

about planting the wrong plants next to each other Just

because you plant the wrong plant next to each other doesnrsquot

mean your plants will die and your garden will be a failure

Just use a little common sense when planting your garden this

year and think about

how your plants will

benefit each other

Your plants will be

healthier and your

harvest more plentiful

May Recipe and Kitchen Tips

May is a wonderful month of changes in the weather and the end of school for most of us It is also a

month of celebrationshellip graduations school-end birthdays showers anniversaries communions

reunions and more And donrsquot forget MOTHERrsquoS DAY Take the time to plan for these events and

enjoy the time of celebrations Food is always a part of celebrations but it is good to keep foods

delicious budget friendly and healthy

May also brings hotter temperatures and our homes consume more energy as we turn on air conditioners

Cooking tends to heat up our houses which make electric bills higher Try to do cooking in the morning

when it is cool Also use crock pots toaster ovens and microwaves instead of the big oven Do prep

work the night before to really help your time along

The recipe below is a great salad to keep you cool at dinner time and is delicious as a side dish for a party

or gathering or it is great as a main dinner that is refreshing and easy And remember to keep dinner

hour organized and simple Plan ahead with shopping and meals that allow us to enjoy our

family more into the last moments of each day

1 package of frozen cheese tortellini cooked by package

directions and cooled

1 yellow summer squash diced and 1 zucchini squash

1 can of kidney beans or garbanzo beans drained and

rinsed

frac12 c shredded mixed pizza cheese or cheddar jack

blend

frac12 to frac34 c low fat or non fat Italian dressing

Salt and Pepper to taste

GOTTA LOVE GOTTA LOVE THAT EMAILTHAT EMAIL

S everal years ago a preacher from out-of-state ac-cepted a call to a church in Houston Texas Some

weeks after he arrived he had an occasion to ride the bus from his home to the downtown area When he sat down he discovered that the driver had accidentally given him a quarter too much change As he considered what to do he thought to himself Youd better give the quarter back It would be wrong to keep it Then he thought Oh forget it its only a quarter Who would worry about this little amount Anyway the bus company gets too much fare they will never miss it Accept it as a gift from God and keep quiet

When his stop came he paused momentarily at the door and then he handed the quarter to the driver and said Here you gave me too much change

The driver with a smile replied Arent you the new preacher in town

Yes he replied

Well I have been thinking a lot lately about going somewhere to worship I just wanted to see what you would do if I gave you too much change Ill see you at church on Sunday

When the preacher stepped off of the bus he literally grabbed the nearest light pole held on and said Oh God I almost sold your Son for a quarter

Our lives are the only Bible some people will ever read This is a really scary example of how much people watch us as Christians and will put us to the test Al-ways be on guard -- and remember -- You carry the name of Christ on your shoulders when you call yourself Christian

Watch your thoughts they become words

Watch your words they become actions

Watch your actions they become habits

Watch your habits they become character

Watch your character it becomes your destiny
