READING THE SCRIPTURES
know of is... reading the scriptures.
When we are disgruntled, down-
hearted, or discouraged, the reading
of the Scriptures lifts us up from
the mire and gently places us down
on solid ground.
We especially enjoy these words
of Paul which he wrote in his second
letter to the Corinthians:
"We are troubled on every side
Yet not distressed,
We are perplexed
But not in despair,
Persecuted
But not forsaken,
Cast down
But not destroyed." (II Cor. 4:8)
Today, we shall read the scriptures,
and our spirits shall be uplifted.
