OUT OF THE TUNNEL

OUT OF THE TUNNEL

An unknown writer has written...

"Some of us may enter the light sooner
sooner than others. But we are all moving
towards it."

A train in a tunnel does not bring each
passenger at the same time out of darkness
into the light of day.

Those in the front part of the train are the
first to see the glimmer of light.
They leave the tunnel behind while their
fellow passengers are still in the dark.

But even while the train is in the tunnel
all are moving towards the light.

So all who have started on the journey
towards health of body and soul...may
reach their destination as long as they
continue toward the light.

Out of the tunnel
Into the light
Hello to sunshine
Goodbye to the night
Farewell to wrong doing
We cling to the right
Victory is ours
If we'll stay in the fight

SO LONG, 2017

  SO LONG, 2017

I don't know about your life
in 2017, but ours was pretty
mixed bag, with many a ups
and downs, especially in the
area of sicknesses. Both Donna
had continuous minor illnesses
throughout the year.

However, we must admit, our
Heavenly Father has been kind
and gracious to us this pass year
in spite of our sins faults and
   shortcomings.

Someone (or many) surly must
have been praying for us because
beginning with the week before
Christmas, both of us began to
be virtually cured of our ailments.

We are both old enough now to
realize that all God's children,
sooner or later, are going to
encounter unwanted troubles
or tragedies.

We personally are acquainted
with those widowed, single mothers,
senior citizens with old age problems,
mounting, plus many others who
have struggles in their lives.

For those of you who made it through
2017, I guess that includes you,if you'r
still reading this. We are glad you
made it.

No matter your circumstances, we
wish and hope for you a new year
in 2018 ten times better than last year.

With love and best wishes,
Bill and Donna Morgan

Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign
Behold a virgin shall conceive and bear a son
and shall call his name Immanuel

DARK AND COLD THE WINTER NIGHT

12/22/2017

   DARK AND COLD THE WINTER NIGHT

Dark and cold the winter night
With neither moon nor stars in sight
  Not a single solitary sound
As snow lightly began to fall
From heaven way up high
And I thought I saw an angel
Flying by

For all the misery, suffering and pain
Of so many friends I have known
I could not answer the question,
Why

Yet, deep down inside the center
Of my soul, I sensed the answer
To my whying cry

  Without that suffering and pain
Never would I have known
The healing power of my God
So kind, so sweet, so eternal

INSIDE JOB

12/20/2017

   INSIDE JOB

    To change the face of a person,
or nation, we first have to change
the character of the inner man.

To apply new economic programs
or social reforms as a balm to our
national ills is merely treating surface
symptoms.

To solely blame industry, business,
education or politics for our country's
woes is to simply skirt around the real
culprits...you and me.

Everyone has the responsibility to
continually re-examine themselves and
their motives...to ask, "What is my
moral direction, where am I going?"

Walt Kelley was right, you know,
when he had his possum, Pogo, exclaim
"We has met the enemy and he is us."

THE BEST BIRD IN THE FOREST

  THE BEST BIRD IN THE FOREST

"Use what talents you have,"
Wrote Henry Van Dyke.
"The woods would be very silent,
If no birds sang there."

Maybe you aren't the best bird in the forest right now
                       Maybe your warble is a little weak
                        Maybe you are a little too long or too short in the beak
                        Maybe your fine feathered friends call you a freak
                        Maybe, just maybe, they don’t understand
                        The heights that you seek

                        Fly higher, sing better, go on, go on
                       Give it your best
                        Develop your talents
                        Lead all the rest
                        Don’t settle for worms
                        Or corn on the ground
                        But soar to the top
                        Where the eagles are found

PROCRASTINATION

12/15/2017

PROCRASTINATION

                                      "Procrastination," wrote
                                     Don Marquis, "is the art of keeping
                                      up with yesterday."

                                      Keeping up with yesterday is
                                      almost as difficult as getting ahead
                                      of tomorrow.

                                      While it is pleasant to have
                                      fond memories of yesterday...
                                      And glorious dreams and hopes
                                      for the future...
                                      The present time is for the work at hand.

                                      If we are to strengthen our character,
                                      it must be done today.
                                      If we are to repent of sins,
                                      it must be done today
                                      If we are to love our families,
                                      and neighbors, it must be done today.

                                      Seldom do we procrastinate in
                                      the right direction, at the proper time.
                                      May we look well to this day.

    ISAIAH 15:6,7

For the waters of Nimrim
shall be desolate
for the hay is withered away
the grass faileth
there is no green thing

  Therefore, the abundance
they have gotten
and that which they have
laid up, shall they carry away
to the brook of the willows
