Do Unto Others....
"Whatever you wish that men would do to you,
do so to them; for this is the law and the prophets."
Matthew 7:12

Great is our gladness
To serve God through others,
For our Father taught us
We are all sisters and brothers.

I read this verse again this morning, In everything do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the law and the prophets  How much livfe would be different if we treated every person the way we want to be treated.  Do we like to get encouraging words, then give them, do we like to be helped, then help, do we like to receive smiles then give them.  How many things can you think of that you like receiving, then do them. 

Father, help us to see the world through your eyes, the hurts through your compassion, the joy through your  peace.  In Jesus Name.  amen

Yesterday I did not have school, I worked on document for class reunion til noon and then went to Cando.  We were at the church all afternoon making bracelets for Nicaragua.  I am not real crafty, so it isn't really me, but I did the best I could.  The fellowship was good. Dad went to a meeting at Lakewood Park Bible camp.  He went with Jerry to get the truck he will be driving to Illinois.  Jerry was to leave this morning at 7 a.m.

Alicia, we wish you a Happy Birthday, we know what would make you happy today.  We are praying for you.  Jesus bless Alicia on this her birthday.
