Sunday, June 8, 2014Greetings Bible Enthusiast!
Although we have spent this week and part of last week on pride, we also have, inadvertently, been studying humility, also, which is the opposite if pride. As a matter of fact, if you do a study of the subject in Proverbs, you will find that many of the scriptures deal with pride and humility at the same time. If you struggle with pride, therefore, maybe it is time you start humbling yourself? Why not start by humbling yourself before the Lord?
God Bless You!

--FEATURED FUNNY:Although I knew our commanding officer hated doling out weekend passes, I thought I had a good reason.
"My wife is pregnant and I want to be with her," I told the C.O. Much to my surprise he said, "Permission granted."
Inspired by my success, a fellow soldier also requested a weekend pass. His wife wasn't pregnant, so when the C.O. asked why he should grant him permission, my friend responded, "My wife is getting pregnant this weekend and I want to be with her."
********************--ANSWER TO TRIVIA QUESTION: Q. How did Jonah plan to get to Tarshish?
A. By Ship.
He went down to Joppa, and found a ship going to Tarshish; so he paid the fare, and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD.
Jonah 1:3
