Eternity... are you ready?

And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment. Hebrews 9:27

We were talking to a neighbour recently when he made the comment that he was going to be here forever and ever. He and others may wish it so, but that will not make it a reality. The truth is far from it. If there is one thing that is certain, it is that every day we live is a day nearer to when we will leave this earth and pass into eternity. Are you ready to meet God, if that day is today? —J. Fleming

[From the Choice Gleanings calendar]

I am walking home to heaven,
Jesus is the only way,
Through His cross I found forgiveness
And I’ll see His face one day. —J. Fleming

I learned the history of Operation Tiger which I had not been aware of before. This year is the 70th Anniversary of Operation Tiger. They had a big ceremony at Slapton Sands near a tank that was recovered after the war. Exercise Tiger , or Operation Tiger , was the code name for one in a series of large-scale rehearsals for the D-Day invasion of Normandy , which took place on Slapton Sands or Slapton Beach in Devon . (In late 1943) Coordination and communication problems resulted in friendly fire deaths during the exercise, and an Allied convoy positioning itself for the landing was attacked by E-boats of the German Kriegsmarine , resulting in the deaths of 946 American servicemen.

Jesus Christ - and We

Jesus Christ- and We Christ has no hands but our hands , to do His work today; He has no feet but our feet to lead men in His way; He has no tongue but our tongues to tell men how He died, He has no help but our help to bring them to His side. We are the only Bible, the careless world will read; We are the sinners' gospel, we are the scoffers' creed; We are the Lord's last message, Written in deed and word- what if the line is crooked, what if the type is blurred? What if our hands are busy, with other work than His, What if our feet are walking, where sin's allurement is? What if our tongues are speaking, of things His lips would spurn, How can we hope to help Him, Unless from Him we learn? By Annie Johnson Flint (1862-1932) I was going through my old school folders and found this great poem. It is so true. We as Christians are to show the world how Christ would act and ta...
