to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may
be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God
and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
Ephesians 4:12-13
It was a safe and restful place,
no lock secured the door.
Rocking chairs, and bits of lace,
were part of the decor.
The kitchen was a favorite spot,
cheerful, plain and neat.
An iron coal stove kept it hot
and cooked good things to eat.
In Winter, there were featherbeds,
to keep us snug and warm,
and when the heat of Summer came,
Nature's foliage kept us cool.
Old fashioned, yet so wonderful
are those remembered days,
When Godliness and simplicity
helped guide us in our ways.

through the love of Jesus Christ, to those who
are less fortunate, believing that they will change

"If any of you says to him, 'Go, I wish you well; keep
warm and well fed; but does nothing about his
physical needs, what good is it?"
James 2:16
I have a Friend I've never seen
but just as sure as night,
My Friend keeps close watch over me,
makes sure things are all right.
His helping hand is always there,
whenever I may fall.
And though I backslide, now and then,
He loves me through it all.
In sorrow, I can turn to Him,
in secret, shed my tears.
He soothes my every heartache,
and drives away my fears.
My Friend's full name is Jesus Christ,
I love Him, yes, indeed.
He never fails to comfort me,
whenever I'm in need.

But be very careful to keep the commandment and the law that Moses
the servant of the Lord gave you; to love the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways,
to obey His commands, to hold fast to Him and to serve Him with all your heart and
all your soul.
Joshua 22:5
Dear Father,
I offer You myself today,
to prod, to prune, to nurture,
as I travel along my way.
Let me do my tasks lovingly,
let me not heed to despair.
Let me be the person You desire,
and take my every care.
Let me not balk, or
run about complaining, that I'm in
need of this or that,
Just let me remember Thy promises,
and keep my eyes not upon the future,
but here on today,
in the place where I'm at.

James 2:16
The golden-rod is yellow;
The corn is turning brown;
The trees in apple orchards
with fruit, are bending down.
The gentian's bluest fringes
are curling in the sun;
In dusty pods the milkweed,
its hidden silk has spun.
The sedges flaunt their harvest,
in every meadow nook;
And asters by the brookside,
make asters in the brook.
From dewy lanes at morning,
the grapes' sweet odors rise;
At noon, the roads all flutter
with yellow butterflies.
By all these lovely tokens,
September days are here,
With Summer's best of weather,
And Autumn's best of cheer.
But none of all this beauty,
which floods the earth and air,
is unto me the secret
which makes September fair.
"Tis a thing which I remember,
to name it, thrills me yet;
One day of one September,
I never can forget.
