The Letter Thief

The Letter Thief is watching,
He will steal them from you.
First he doesn’t take too much,
He only steals a few.
Then you find he’s taking words,
And scrambles them around.
It’s really such a bother,
When this guy is in town.
LadyX has got his pic,
He is an ugly cuss.
We really need to catch him,
And put him on the bus.
The bus that goes to DU,
He is welcome there.
They can’t spell or even think,
They never wash their hair.
Or change their socks, brush their teeth,
Just filth and lies they spew.
On second thought let’s keep him here,
He only steals a few.

US Postal stamp recall...

The US Postal Service has issued a recall of a stamp they created with a picture of now US Senator Hillary Clinton to honor her achievements while serving as the First Lady of our nation.

The problem was discovered when claims had been made that the stamp was not sticking to envelopes, and that mail which had been sent using the "Hillary" postage was not being delivered.

Senator Clinton demanded a full investigation into the allegations.

A special Postal Service Investigation team was formed and after several months and many dollars spent, made the following findings:

1. The stamp was manufactured properly.
2. There was nothing wrong with the adhesive.
3. People were just spitting on the wrong side.

Following Jesus is always right—but not always easy.

"Follow Me"

Read: Mark 3:13-19

Jesus said to them, "Follow Me . . . . " They immediately left their nets and followed Him. —Mark 1:17-18

Bible In One Year: Esther 6-8; Acts 6

---

When the United States launched its space program in 1958, seven men were chosen to become the first astronauts. Imagine the excitement of Scott Carpenter, Gordon Cooper, John Glenn, Gus Grissom, Walter Schirra, Alan Shepard, and Deke Slayton. They were selected to go where no one had ever gone before.

Yet, as astronauts they knew they would face unforeseen dangers, challenges, and trials. Each of them realized that the thrill of being chosen was tempered with the fear of the unknown future.

Imagine another set of men who were chosen for an important mission: the 12 apostles Jesus chose one day on a mountainside near the Sea of Galilee. These men left behind their occupations and families to dedicate themselves to this radical new teacher. They didn't know what kind of political, religious, or financial challenges they would face. Yet they followed Jesus.

Jesus asks the same of His people today. He asks each of us to follow Him, to love Him, to obey Him, and to tell others about Him. Like the apostles, we don't know what our commitment to Jesus might bring.

Lord, help us to follow You faithfully and to trust You completely with our future. —Dave Branon

I am resolved to follow the Savior,
Faithful and true each day;
Heed what He sayeth, do what He willeth—
He is the living way. —Hartsough

Following Jesus is always right—but not always easy.
