.:Inspirational Story:.
.:Listen to the Whisper:.
A young and successful executive was traveling down
neighborhood street going a bit too fast in his new
Jaguar. He was watching for kids darting out from
between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he
saw something. As his car passed, no children
appeared. Instead, a brick smashed into the Jag's
side door! He slammed on the brakes and spun the Jag
back to the spot where the brick had been thrown.
He jumped out of the car, grabbed some kid and
pushed him up against a parked car shouting "What was
that all about and who are you? Just what the heck are
you doing?" Building up a head steam he went on.
"That's a new car and that brick you threw is going to
cost a lot of money. Why did you do it!?"
"Please mister, please. I'm sorry, I didn't know
what else to do, pleaded the youngster. "I threw the
brick because no one else would stop..."
Tears were dripping down the boy's chin as he pointed
around the parked car.
"It's my brother," he said. He rolled off the curb
and fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him
" Sobbing the boy asked the executive,
"Would you please help me get him back into his
wheelchair? He's hurt and he's too heavy for me."
Moved beyond words, the driver tried to swallow the
rapidly swelling lump in his throat. He lifted the
young man back into the wheelchair and took out his
handkerchief and wiped the scrapes and cuts, checking
to see that everything was going to be okay. "Thank
you and May God bless you. "the grateful child said to
him.
The man watched the little boy push his brother down
the sidewalk toward his home. He never did repair the
side door. He kept the dent to remind him not to go
through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick
at you to get your attention.
God whispers in your soul and speaks to your heart.
Sometimes when you don't have time to listen, He has
to throw a brick at you.
It is your choice: Listen to the whisper--or wait
for the brick.
Have you accepted Christ?

.:Daily Reading for 7-4-1776:.
.:Proverbs 26:.
26:1 As snow in summer, and as rain in harvest,
so honour is not seemly for a fool.
26:2 As the bird by wandering, as
the
swallow by flying, so the curse causeless
shall not come.
26:3 A whip for the horse, a bridle for the
ass, and a rod for the fool's back.
26:4 Answer not a fool according to his
folly, lest thou also be like unto him.
26:5 Answer a fool according to his folly,
lest he be wise in his own conceit.
26:6 He that sendeth a message by the hand
of a fool cutteth off the feet, and drinketh damage.
26:7 The legs of the lame are not equal:
so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
26:8 As he that bindeth a stone in a
sling, so is he that giveth honour
to a fool.
26:9 As a thorn goeth up into the hand
of a drunkard, so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
26:10 The great God that formed all
things both rewardeth the fool, and
rewardeth transgressors.
26:11 As a dog returneth to his vomit,
so a fool returneth to his folly.
26:12 Seest thou a man wise in his own
conceit? there is more hope of a fool than of him.
26:13 The slothful man saith,
There is a lion in the way; a lion is in the streets.
26:14 As the door turneth upon his hinges,
so doth the slothful upon his bed.
26:15 The slothful hideth his hand in his
bosom; it grieveth him to bring it again to his mouth.
26:16 The sluggard is wiser in his own
conceit than seven men that can render a reason.
26:17 He that passeth by, and meddleth
with strife belonging not to him, is like one
that taketh a dog by the ears.
26:18 As a mad man who casteth firebrands,
arrows, and death,
26:19 So is the man that deceiveth his neighbour,
and saith, Am not I in sport?
26:20 Where no wood is, there the fire
goeth out: so where there is no talebearer,
the strife ceaseth.
26:21 As coals are to burning coals, and
wood to fire; so is a contentious man to
kindle strife.
26:22 The words of a talebearer are as
wounds, and they go down into the innermost
parts of the belly.
26:23 Burning lips and a wicked heart
are like a potsherd covered with silver dross.
26:24 He that hateth dissembleth with his
lips, and layeth up deceit within him;
26:25 When he speaketh fair, believe him
not: for there are seven abominations in his heart.
26:26 Whose hatred is covered by deceit,
his wickedness shall be shewed before the
whole congregation.
26:27 Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall
therein: and he that rolleth a stone, it
will return upon him.
26:28 A lying tongue hateth those that are
afflicted by it; and a flattering mouth worketh ruin.

.:Testimony:.
.:Christa McMillen's:.
I don't have one of those "really bad got
TOTALLY turned around stories",
but I believe
that you may find it interesting....
I was born and raised in a Christian home.
My mom and dad brought me to
church every
Sunday morning and Wednesday night. I must
admit, I really
enjoyed going to church
throughout most of elementary. Around 5th
grade,
I met this girl (let's just call her
Sue), and she was definitely NOT a
Christian.
Her mom and dad got divorced a few years before
we met, and
her dad moved to a different
state. Her mom was what you might call a
"man hater" ever since. You see, Sue and her
mom got physically and sexually
abused by
Sue's dad. Anyway, I met Sue, and after we
became friends, I
realized I had started to
change. I no longer enjoyed going to church,
and I had begun to swear, which I never would
have dreamed of being a part
of before, I
think that my parents noticed some changes too.
Then, after
6th grade, I went to my church
youth camp in Charels City, Iowa. That year,
the speaker was Bay Forrest, a former NBA
player who had to retire from
back injury.
But I hadn't gone to camp to listen to the
speaker, I had
gone to have a good time with
my friends. Later in the week, God really
started to speak to me through Bay's message,
and even though I knew I
had Jesus in my
head, I didn't have him in my heart. So, that
night, along
with about 50 other people at
camp, I gave my life to Christ. I really
tried
through the whole summer to keep a good
Christian attitude towards
everything, and I
did... through the summer. When school started
for 7th
grade, I met up with Sue again, and
she got me back into the swearing and
other
stuff I had been involved in in the previous
year. After 7th grade,
I went back to the
same camp with church. Once again, Bay Forrest
was
speaking at the camp. This year, though,
really made me think about God's
love. On
Thursday night of that week, they had what
they call "Holy Night"
it's a night where
you get to see what Jesus went through in
his crusifixion
by a video and drama
reinactment. This summer, I truly had
changed my
life. Now, as I will be entering
the 8th grade in the fall of 2001, I ask
you
to pray that I continue my relationship with
God, and I pray that
you do the same. Thank
You, and God bless each and every one of you!

in the terminal are sold out.
...before the flight, the passengers
get together and elect a pilot.
...if you kiss the wing for luck before
boarding, it kisses you back.
...you cannot board the plane unless
you have the exact change.

"Give me liberty, or give me death!"

==============================================
:.Jesus Christ.:
Do you know Jesus Christ as your personal
savior? Do feel like something
is missing
in your life? Do you feel like there is
no point to life, you have
nothing to live
for? Are you worried about your future?
You don't have to read horoscopes, or call
a psychic hotline to be comforted of your
future. Instead, GOD loves
you. And He
wants only the best for you. He knows
you inside and
out, even if you don't know
Him. He loves you unconditionally, no strings
are attached to His love. He loves you so
much that He died for you. He did it so
that you and I could spend
all eternity
with Him. Do you have Him as your savior?
He didn't say that we would have all the
luxuries of this world, He
did say that He
would provide for us, if only we seek Him.
Do you have this wonderful gift called
Salvation? If you don't, it's
easy to get,
just ask Him you want it. Commit your life
to Him, and He will greatly
reward you.
Will you pray?
"Lord Jesus, I admit I am a sinner. I need forgiveness.
I am sorry
for my sins and I don't want to sin against You
anymore. I believe You
are the Son of God and You died on
the cross for MY sins. I also believe
that you rose from the dead
so that I, too, may have victory over the grave.
Please forgive me
now Lord and cleanse me. Come into my heart and give
me a new
life. Thank You, Jesus, for shedding your blood for me and for
hearing
and answering my prayer. Amen"
If you've just prayed
that, you are a Child
of GOD. Think about that! A child of the
Creator of the Universe. It's a humbling
experience. If you have anything you
want to know about your new life
with Christ,
or if you're still not sure about all this,
please do not hesitate to email me.(AJ@gmail.cjb.net)

| | I lived my life with reckless abandon, like there would be, no tomorrow. I lived life on the edge, engaging death as a playmate. If death came, then that too, I'd hoped in it's finality, would be the ultimate experience I craved. Maybe in death, I could finally realize the meaning of life.
