| From the book, "Life's Little Instruction Book" by H. Jackson Brown: "Don't say you don't have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Louis Pasteur, Michaelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson and Albert Einstein." The first typewriter was called the "literary piano." A housefly hums in the key of F. Hummingbirds can't walk. A fool and his money can be fun to hang out with. "While the storm clouds gather Far across the sea, Let us swear allegiance to a land that's free; Let us all be grateful For a land so fair. As we raise our voices in a solemn prayer." (The introduction to Irving Berlin's "God Bless America"). From the Word of God as recorded in Psalm 46: "Be still, and know that I Am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. The Lord of hosts is with us: the God of Jacob is our Refuge." Praise the Lord of heaven and earth and pray for His peace in this troubled world. God be with you and yours........................See you September 30 in Hunt Valley, MD Rev.
