There Is A Boulder In The Road!

Before telling this story we want to say, "Happy Father's Day" to all Fathers.  We want to take this time to honor our earthly fathers and in doing so bring honor and glory to our Heavenly Father.

In an earlier century, there lay a large boulder in the middle of the roadway. Traveler after traveler walked past the boulder, veering off the side of the road to get around it. All the while, they were shaking their head and muttering, "Can you believe that? Someone should get that big thing out of the way. What an inconvenience!"

Finally, a man came along and, seeing the boulder, took a branch from a tree and pried the boulder enough to get it rolling and rolled it off to the side of the road. Lying underneath the rock, he found a small bag with a note. The man picked up the note and read it. It read as follows:

"Thank you for being a true servant of the kingdom. Many have passed this way and complained because of the state of the problem and spoken of what ought to be done. But you have taken the responsibility upon yourself to serve the kingdom instead. You are the type of citizen we need more of in this kingdom. Please accept this bag of gold that traveler after traveler have walked by simply because they didn’t care enough about the kingdom to serve."

        I wonder what "bags of gold" we’re missing each day, simply because we don’t bother to get involved in serving our heavenly kingdom.

Memorial Day 2012

Memorial Day, 2012, our hope is that everyone will pause during this Memorial Day weekend long enough to remember the freedoms we enjoy are not free!  We have been able to meet a number of widows whose husbands served in World War II and returned home to care for their families and their neighbors.  Now they have passed away leaving behind widows with many needs.  We are thankful for all our volunteers who have helped us meet some of the needs of these deserving widows.  We are looking for new volunteers to help us with our Summer 2012 projects.  We say, Thank You to all who have served our country to make sure we enjoy continued freedom!  Freedom is not FREE!
