  I get the Our Daily Bread by e-mail and by an apps .  This is from the e-mail that they sent me on 02/04/2024. I think it is a blessing and an inspiration. This is my way of sharing it. The e-mail comes daily. I have been receiving it starting 02/04/2024 but didn't think about sharing it till now. I think it would be even better if one connects with the above links or get it in the mail. I think it is a worthy ministry to support. I believe one can donate / start your Our Daily Bread at the first link above. I think it is worth checking out.

  I found this on the Facebook page of The Positive Christian . I think it is very helpful and inspiring.  A new year's not just a time for resolutions, but a season to reflect on how we can be a blessing in the lives of others. The scripture in Galatians 6:10 , “Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers,” beautifully encapsulates this call to action. It reminds us of our duty to spread love and kindness. Here are 6 ways to be a bigger blessing in the coming year. 1. Extend Compassion. In a world where suffering and hardship are common, showing compassion can have a profound impact. Whether it’s comforting someone in grief, understanding a friend’s struggle, or showing empathy to a stranger, your compassion can be a soothing presence in someone’s life. As Jesus showed compassion to those around Him, we too are called to do the same. 2. Volunteer Your Time. Time is a precious gift. When you volunt...

The Livingstone Legacy by W. Herschel Ford

  This was copied from the bulletin of Calvary Baptist Church of Portsmouth NH. The bulletin was dated 03/17/2024 The Livingstone Legacy by W. Herschel Ford          As we read the book of Acts, we see one thing about these men that stands out above all others - it is their faithfulness to Christ and their God given task. They left all for Him; they suffered all for Him. They lived not for this world but for the world to come.          David Livingstone was one of the greatest Christians who ever lived. He gave his life for Christ in Africa. When he died, they brought his body back to England and buried him in Westminster Abbey. The crowds thronged the streets to pay their tribute to him. But one old man stood alone, weeping as if his heart would break. Who was this man? He was a friend of David Livingstone's. They had been raised together; they had played together. When Livingstone decided to go to Africa, this friend told him he w...

The Unity Of The 44 Writers by Dr Harry Rimmer

  This was copied from the bulletin of Calvary Baptist Church in Portsmouth NH . The bulletin is dated 03/10/2024.  The Unity Of The 44 Writers by Dr. Harry Rimmer               If the Bible were one book written by a single author on one subject, we would naturally expect all of its parts and sections to harmonize and agree. But if it were one book written by 44 men on one subject, the chances of complete unanimity would be very slight. Therefore, to say that 44 men wrote 66 books on 50 different subjects and their words are in complete and perfect agreement leaves the mind too stunned to accept the unbelievable fact! Then we rally and say: "There must have been close collaboration and incessant conference to achieve so remarkable a work! To which history replies, "NO, there was no collaboration. Most of these men never saw each other and had no chance to plan or revise their utterances. The coincidence must be explained some other way...

It Isn't Fair

  This is copied from the bulletin of / from Calvary Baptist Church of Portsmouth NH . The bulletin is dated 03/03/2024. It Isn't Fair     It isn't fair! It can't be right! I now protest with all my might! I raise my voice both loud and strong. It's wrong, my friend! It's wrong: it's wrong.     It's wrong, I say, dead wrong, indeed! That's why I weep and beg and plead, it is black and wicked sin to keep the light from dying men!     I plead the cause of men afar, unsaved, unloved, untold they are, why have we been so late and slow? Why have there been so few to go?     Unsaved, unsought, and still untold because we love and hoard our gold! How dare we show each selfish greed and keep the truth from men in need?     Let's follow Jesus last command! Let's take the light to every land! This truth is plain; the need is  great; the time is short; the hour is late!     Let's not linger, rest or sleep, but rise and go and g...
