Thank for calling you to be his child. (1 John 3:1-2)

Promises in Scripture

A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows,
is God in his holy dwelling.
God sets the lonely in families,
he leads forth the prisoners with singing. (Psalm 68:5-6)

As a father has compassion on his children,
so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him;
for he knows how we are formed,
he remembers that we are dust. (Psalm 103:13-14)

See how the lilies of the field grow.They do not labor or spin.Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of hese. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? So do not worry, saying,"What shall we eat?" or "What shall we drink?" or "What shall we wear?" For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. (Matthew 6:28-32)

Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom. (Luke 12:32)

I will be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty. (2 Corinthians 6:18)

NOVEMBER 1

Travel by train

Airplanes make the best time, buses provide the best fares, but Irains are ilw most fun. Every child should enjoy the freedom that traveling in a train provides. There is spacious seating, leg room, and quite a rumble, so talking in a normal voice isn't going to disturb others. There is usually a dining car (in fact, some families like to sit in the dining car for most of the trip, since the tables allow the children to play games do art projects, and so on). There is no fear of being at a high altitude, your child’s ears won’t pop, and he’ll enjoy a panoramic view of the countryside. And depending on the trip, he may even get to lie down comfortably and sleep.

While the same caveats apply to any kind of public travel— children shouldn’t bother other passengers--train travel generally allows kids more freedom.

Be sure to discuss proper behavior before going on any train journey with your child.

Days of Heaven Upon Earth
Rev. A. B. Simpson

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OCTOBER 5. "He hath triumphed gloriously" (Ex. xv. 1).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


"He hath triumphed gloriously" (Exodus 15:1).
Beloved, God calls us to victory. Have any of you given up the conflict, have you surrendered? Have you said, "This thing is too much"? Have you said, "I can give up anything else but this"? If you have, you are not in the land of promise. God means you should accept every difficult thing that comes in your life. He has started with you, knowing every difficulty. And if you dare to let Him, He will carry you through not only to be conquerors, but "more than conquerors." Are you looking for all the victory?

God gives His children strength for the battle and watches over them with a fond enthusiasm. He longs to fold you to His arms and say to you, "I have seen thy conflict, I have watched thy trials, I have rejoiced in thy victory; thou hast honored Me." You know He told Joshua at the beginning, "There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life; as I was with Moses, so shall I be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee." And again, He says to us, "Fear thou not, for I am with thee."

Learn Something N

The Word of the Day for July 14 is:

lenient \LEEN-yunt\ adjective
1 : exerting a soothing or easing influence : relieving pain or stress
2 : of mild and tolerant disposition; especially : indulgent

Examples:
The judge decided to be lenient because it was a first offense, but
warned that the defendant would not be so lucky a second time
Did you know?
"Lenient" is a word with a soothing history. It derives from the Latin
verb "lenire," meaning "to soothe" or "to soften" (itself from
"lenis," meaning "soft or mild"). The first, now archaic, sense of
"lenient" referred to something soothing that relieved pain and
stress. That meaning was shared by "lenitive," an earlier derivative
of "lenire" that was commonly used with "electuary" ("lenitive
electuary" being a medicated paste prepared with honey or another
sweet and used by veterinarians to alleviate pain in the mouth).
Linguists also borrowed "lenis" to describe speech sounds that are
softened -- for instance, the "t" sound in "gutter" is lenis. By way
of comparison, the "t" sound in "toe" is fortis.
