God's Cardinal


Flying softly in the breeze
The color filled with life
Blink your eye and you will see
God's bird of such delight

Flying in a special way
With presence everywhere
Pick him out like royalty
Colors can't compare

Smile will come across your face
As gently he will land
Presence of such majesty
In any place he stands

Creation of such beauty
Flies within our sight
Looking at the awe of him
Gliding like great light

Look to see his presence
Amongst the trees so tall
Never hard to find him there
Gift of love to all

Royal red with special crown
Gift we always treasure
Nature's gift for all to see
Presence of God's splendor

26 Hidden Books in the Bible Game

Find the names of 26 Books of the Bible that are hidden in the following paragraphs.


Joel Daniel made a remark about the hidden books of the Bible. It was a lulu, kept people looking so hard for facts and for others it was a big revelation. Some were in a jam, especially since the names of the books are not all capitalized, but the truth finally struck home to numbers of readers. To others, it was a real job. Joshua told his sister, "It's all in the smart gene, Sis." We want it to be a most fascinating few moments for you. Yes, there will be some really easy ones to spot. Others may require the judges to help them. I will quickly admit it usually takes a minister to find one of them, and there might be loud lamentations, maybe even a few proverbs spoken, when it is found. One lady says she brews a cup of tea, so she can concentrate better. See how well you can compete. Really now, there are twenty-six names of Books of the Bible hidden in this game.

P.S.

Alms maybe given in the offering plate. Do not go to the john during this game. Hose all mud off the feet. Make sure you mat the wet feet before entering, then hang your coat on the formica halltree.

Senior Version - Jesus Loves Me


Many years ago, while watching a little TV on Sunday instead of going to church, I watched a Church in Atlanta honoring one of its senior pastors who had been retired many years.

He was 92 at that time and I wondered why the Church even bothered to ask the old gentleman to preach at that age.  After a warm welcome, introduction of this speaker, and as the applause quieted down he rose from his high back chair and walked slowly, with great effort and a sliding gate to the podium.  Without a note or written paper of any kind, he placed both hands on the pulpit to steady himself and then quietly and slowly he began to speak.

"When I was asked to come here today and talk to you, your pastor asked me to tell you what was the greatest lesson ever learned in my 50 odd years of preaching.  I thought about it for a few days and boiled it down to just one thing that made the most difference in my life and sustained me through all my trials.

The one thing that I could always rely on when tears and heart break and pain and fear and sorrow paralyzed me......the only thing that would comfort was this verse.

 "Jesus loves me this I know.
   For the Bible tells me so.
  Little ones to him belong,
  We are weak but he is strong.....
  Yes, Jesus loves me...
  The Bible tells me so."

When he finished, the church was quiet.  You actually could hear his foot steps as he shuffled back to his chair.  I don't believe I will ever forget it.

A pastor once stated, "I always noticed that its was the adults who chose the children's hymn 'Jesus Loves Me' (for the children of course) during a hymn sing, and it was the adults who sang the loudest because I could see they knew it the best."

- Senior version of Jesus Loves Me -

Here is a new version just for us who have white hair, or no hair at all.  For us over middle age (or even those almost there) and all you others, check out this newest version of  "Jesus Loves Me". It is quite good, so read, sing and enjoy:"

 

 
JESUS LOVES ME

Jesus loves me, this I know,
Though my hair is white as snow.
Though my sight is growing dim,
Still He bids me trust in Him.

(CHORUS)

Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me.
Yes, Jesus loves me!
The Bible tells me so.

Though my steps are oh, so slow,
With my hand in His I’ll go
On through life, let come what may,
He’ll be there to lead the way.

(CHORUS)

Though I am no longer young,
I have much which He’s begun.
Let me serve Christ with a smile,
Go with others the extra mile.

(CHORUS)

When the nights are dark and long,
In my heart He puts a song.
Telling me in words so clear,
“Have no fear, for I am near.”

(CHORUS)

When my work on earth is done,
And life’s victories have been won.
He will take me home above,
Then I’ll understand His love

(CHORUS)

I love Jesus , does He know?
Have I ever told Him so?
Jesus loves to hear me say,
That I love Him every day.

"Jesus Loves Me" is a Christian hymn written by Anna Bartlett Warner (1827–1915). The lyrics first appeared as a poem in the context of an 1860 novel called Say and Seal, written by her older sister Susan Warner (1819–1885), in which the words were spoken as a comforting poem to a dying child. - Wiki

Jesus Comes to Jerusalem as King

As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples, saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her colt by her. Untie them and bring them to me. If anyone says anything to you, say that the Lord needs them, and he will send them right away.” This took place to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet:

“Say to Daughter Zion,
‘See, your king comes to you,
gentle and riding on a donkey,
and on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’”

The disciples went and did as Jesus had instructed them. They brought the donkey and the colt and placed their cloaks on them for Jesus to sit on. A very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed shouted,

“Hosanna to the Son of David!”
“Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”
“Hosanna in the highest heaven!”

Matthew 21:1-9
 

Palm Sunday commemorates the triumphal entrance of Jesus Christ into Jerusalem when palm branches were placed in His path, before His arrest on Holy Thursday and His Crucifixion on Good Friday. It thus marks the beginning of Holy Week, the final week of Lent, and the week in which Christians celebrate the mystery of their salvation through Christ's Death and His Resurrection on Easter Sunday.
