Light in the Darkness

Light in the Darkness  When these signs (pestilences) begin to show the bible tells us that our Redemption is near.  But what do we do in the meantime?  How should Christians respond in the meantime?  Christians can respond in two ways:       I. By being the light and       II. By praying for the government of the day.  I. Be the Light 1. Light Reveals itself and its contents .  Nobody has to do a field study to find a light. As you turn in the direction of the light it is seen; or better still, the light would radiate all around you even before you turn, light reveals itself. And just as on drawing close to a light bulb its filament, glass mound, and metal contacts, through which the electrical current flows, are seen, so in coming into contact with a true Christian, Jesus Christ, the One who engenders light and life is seen and felt.  A Christian should so...

Learning To Read Again  In this new school I could not hide,  There was the need to have a guide,  I did a test and saw a score,  I’d never done this test before  The teachers planned what I should do  And this is what I’ll read to you  A simple task for me was set,  I had to write the alphabet  Oh this is easy, so I thought  Until I started , how I fought!  Then teacher fixed my d’s and b’s  And changed my twisted q’s and p’s  Then made my “m” stand on its feet  And”w” sit upon its seat  “z” and “y” I’d quite forgot  I thought I’d written the whole lot.  I then had vowels long and short  Again with these I fought and fought  There were long a’s of every kind  I had to keep them in my mind  Ai, ay with sound the same  A consonant e in the word game  eigh as found neigh  And this is what the horses say  Long e I had to meet in greet I heard it in the meat I eat...
