A RIGHT PERSPECTIVE


Matthew Henry, the famous Bible scholar was once threatened by thieves and robbed of his purse. He wrote these words in his diary:
"Let me be thankful first because I was never robbed before; second, although they took my purse, they did not take my life; third, because, although they took my all, it was not much; and fourth, because it was I who was robbed, not I who robbed."
Maybe that is what we need in this hurried life of ours, a new perspective that helps us see what we really have to be thankful for.

Mid-week Prayer


Lord, let me open my eyes to the life that I have. Before I lose it to the world, let me lose it to Your love. Then I will truly gain what I need to be thankful for. In the blessed name of Jesus I pray. Amen.

This has been Rev. Jim Massey. I hope that you realize that your being a part of this ministry is one of the greatest joys in my life. I thank God every day for you. Now you tell others of God’s love and let us all see if we can gain a new perspective on life. See you next week in the Mid-week Epistle.
