“In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.” Genesis 1:1

In the first verse of the first chapter of the first book of the Bible God gave an overview of the book of Genesis.  Through this wonderful book God introduced Himself by showing His power, wisdom, grace and love.

Indeed Genesis is the book of beginnings.  The beginning of the earth; the beginning of all plant and animal life; the beginning of mankind; the beginning of the family; the beginning of cities; the beginning of God’s law; the beginning of sin; the beginning of death and the beginning of hope.

There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it (I Corinthians 10:13).

           Flu and pneumonia is taking a toll on our congregation.  Many are out sick with a large number having to spend time in the hospital.  While many are physically sick it is encouraging to know that we can remain well spiritually.  Even though our bodies may ache the faithful child of God can say, “It is well with my soul”.

            I find myself reminiscing as I prepare to attend his funeral.

            I was a young boy of thirteen or fourteen years when we first met.  My family had just moved to Walker County and he offered me work.  He was a cattle farmer and he bailed hay on shares for other farmers.  He always used teenage boys to work the hay fields which worked out well for him and the boys.

           The New Year is still in its early days and it seems that most of those days have been cold.  Most probably have not ventured out into the neighborhood on a casual walk but some have bundled up and played in the snow.  The choices of activities vary from person to person often depending upon the desires of the person. 

          Some may not choose to brave the cold but there is a walk of which the Bible speaks that every individual should choose to take. Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life (Romans 6:4).

            I love Christmas, the Christmas time and the Christmas spirit.  I love the giving nature that is manifested through generous acts.  I love the care and concern for others that is shown through acts of kindness.

It is that time of year.  The time of year when many ask the same question, what would you like?  One can readily see the results of this question simply by going to a store.  Items are being purchased from every store, through the internet and from individuals.  Millions upon millions of dollars are being spent in an attempt to satisfy the desires of another.  Read More
