July, 2016
Presidents Corner~
This has been a troubling
week, to be sure. I am taken back to
my boyhood days, learning that
cutsie song in Sunday School,
Jesus loves the little children, all the
children of the world.
They are
yellow, black and white, all are
precious in His sight... Wow. If
little kids can get it, why cant
adults. The Dallas incident, along
with the shootings that preceded it,
and the blame game thats going on
everywhere is just proof of what
many of us already know-evil exists,
and Satan is trying very hard to
win. But we also know, as horrible as
these incidents are, there is more to
come. I guess you could say, Jesus
said thered be times like this. He
certainly did. We also know that the
world is a battleground. But there is
good news too. We know how the War
will end. Praise God! ~KAB
If my people, who are called by my name, shall
humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face,
and turn from their wicked ways; then will I
hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and
will heal their land.~2Chron. 7:14
