The first Sunday in July....

The words of Edwin Hubbell Chapin....

               "Never does the human soul appear so strong and noble as

                         when it foregoes revenge and dares to forgive an injury."

The Mission Focus today from the UMW Prayer Calendar for 2013 is the Bethlehem Community Center, Winston-Salem, N.C.

May this Sunday be a blessed one for you.

  5. Oh, yes! I definitely agree with that quote! Holding a grudge does nothing except wear out the hands and the heart of the one holding it, so it's in our best interest to turn loose of it and experience the freedom of forgiveness, just as our Lord has forgiven us. Have a wonderful Sunday afternoon, Sister!

  6. Have a blessed Sunday, Nellie. We had a few hours this morning without rain --but it's raining here again now. We got FIVE inches JUST yesterday.... Unbelievable.
