Nelson-Hoover vows exchanged at First Christian Church

Often great blessings come from great troubles

byP«alF!Bm pastor, Charcti of God Scripture: An Over Flow Of Oil, 2 Kings 4; 1-7. This passage of scripture shows us the all sufficiency of the power of God. It shows God’s unbounding tore. His unrestricted grace. His unlimited resources in supplying our needs. The text suggests that often times great blessings come out of great trouble and difficulites The widow situation seemed to be hopeless, her husband was dead and she was in debt, and the creditors were about to take her children But out of this delemma came the greatest blessing of her life There is a song that says ’God specializes in things that seems impossible'’, and reading the bible we see this many times It was through great trials and

persecutions the children of Israel came out of Egypt, but they came out. The Red Sea before them, the mountains on either side, Pharaoh and his armies behind, this too looked like a hopeless situation, but soon they are rejoicing on the other side. All because of the great power of God. Exodus 15;1,2;20-21 All true Christians have experienced times of trials and temptations, but God always appears just in time. Ps. 145; 18 says. He is nigh to them that call upon him, to all who call upon him in truth. When the widow brought her petition to the man of God she had good baas for doing so. She said. ‘Thou knoweth that thy servant did fear the Lord.'' She seemed to be saying this is God’s house We have served God Now what is God wing to

do for us. God does not answer all prayers The Bible declares that God heareth not sinners, but, if any man be a worshiper of God and doeth his will his God heareth. John 9;31. This was the basis for her plea. Thy servant did fear the Lord. No better foundation could anyone have to make a request of the Lord. John 15;7 says. “If you abide in me and my words abide in you. ask what you will and it shall be done When Hexekiah was told that he was going to die, Isa, 38; 1-6 he reminded his God of three things I hare walked before thee in truth. 2. I have walked with a perfect heart. 3. I hare done that which is good in thy sight. God answered. “I have heard thy prayers, I have seen thy tears.” And God added fifteen years to his life. It is very important that we have good basis such as these when we call upon God for help. The greatest privilege we have today is the privilege of prayer Someone said. “Satan laughs at our toiling, mocks at our wisdom, but trembles when we prey. Thank God for the privilege of prayer.” Let us notice that while the widow had basis for her petition, there were also conditions that she must meet. She was directed to borrow vessels, and not a few. Preparation must be made to receive blessings from the Lord God has a bountiful supply, but God never wastes any The widow hod to hare vessels to contain the oil. Our greatest need is to make room for God We must be emptied out of all selfishness, pride, and sinful desires before we can be filled with the fullness of God. The widow was told to borrow not a few. God not only gives what we need, but when we are willing to share what we have with others God will give an overflow. John 7; 37-38 Jesus said, “If any man durst let him come to me and drink,....And out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water Thank God for an overflow ’’

Dear Abby Hubby should quit keeping score DEAR ABBY: I am 44 and Louie (my husband! is 49. I work in a laundry ten hours a day, and when night time comes I need a rest. Louie still acts like a teen-ager when it comes to sex. He can’t get enough. On weekends if we go for a drive in the country, Louie starts looking for an abandoned farmhouse or a secluded road. When we go for a walk in the woods. Louie looks for some bushes for us to crawl under. (We were nearly caught several times.) I got so tired of being hounded for sex, I made Louie ask our family doctor how much sex was normal for people our age. The doc said three times a week was normal, so now Louie keeps a record. If it’s less than three times a week, he says 1 owe him. and he adds it on to the next week. I am falling behind, and dread the thought of going on a vacation trip with this man. Any suggestions? TIRED DEAR TIRED: The time for sex is when BOTH partners are agreeable. Louie shouldn’t feel that he's entitled to a certain number of encounters, and you shouldn’t be made to feel that you "owe” it to him. Tell him to quit keeping score—you'H tell him when you’re ready. DEAR ABBY: Please tell me what to do with a 10-year-old boy who is such a coward he lets every kid in the neighborhood (some younger and smaller than he is) pick on him and boss him around. He won't stand up for his rights. In fact, he will run away from a fight rather than try to defend hipiself. My husband and I have scolded him and even punished him. but it hasn’t done any good. How can we get him to change? He's not stupid. He lovos sports, except boxing and wrestling. Or are some kids bom to run from a fight? ASHAMED DEAR ASHAMED: What's so great about exchanging punches? There is a lot to be said for avoiding physical combat, so don’t scold or punish your son if he chooses to go the nonviolent route.
