COT

Act in Humility– Being humble is mentioned in the Bible 100 times!! Note-this does not include all the verses that talk about overcoming pride. The practice of humility is absent in our society and full of materialism. Neighbors, friends, family concentrate on houses, titles, jobs, clothes, sex, power, etc. We should always stay grounded and humble in the eyes of the Lord. Be the example for your wife, children, brothers. Dan read from the Book, Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters, by Meg Meeker- pg 77. “A father’s humility is his gift to his daughter”

– God is everywhere. You do not need to go to Church to have a relationship why your Higher Power. You aren’t a bad Christian if you miss a Sunday. God is everywhere and with you with whatever you do. Your relationship with God doesn’t have to start on Sundays at a place of worship.**Flags were at 1/2 Mask for Virginia Tech Remembrance Day

A quote from a a very gifted actor that left us way too soon:
“Everyone you meet always ask if you have a career, are married or if you own a house as if life was some kind of grocery list. But nobody ever ask if you are happy.
