Let The Whole World Hear

Read: Acts 1:1-8

Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. —Mark 16:15

Bible In One Year: Ezekiel 14-15; James 2

Fritz Kreisler (1875-1962), the world-famous violinist, earned a fortune with his concerts and compositions, but he generously gave most of it away. So, when he discovered an exquisite violin on one of his trips, he lacked the money to buy it.

Later, having raised enough money to meet the asking price, he returned to the seller, hoping to purchase that beautiful instrument. But to his great dismay it had been sold to a collector. Kreisler made his way to the new owner's home and offered to buy the violin. The collector said it had become his prized possession and he would not sell it.

Disappointed, Kreisler was about to leave when he had an idea. "Could I play the instrument once more before it is consigned to silence?" he asked. Permission was granted, and the great virtuoso filled the room with such heart-moving music that the collector's emotions were deeply stirred. "I have no right to keep that to myself," he exclaimed. "It's yours, Mr. Kreisler. Take it into the world, and let people hear it."

To sinners saved by grace, the gospel is like the rapturous harmonies of heaven. We have no right to keep it to ourselves. Jesus tells us to take it into our world and let people hear it. —Vernon Grounds

I'll tell the world how Jesus saved me
And how He gave me a life brand new;
And I know that if you trust Him
That all He gave me He'll give to you. —Fox

Someone told you about Jesus. Have you told someone lately?

USPS Introduces Priority Mail Flat-Rate Boxes (Starting Nov. 20)

USPS Introduces Priority Mail Flat-Rate Boxes

The U.S. Postal Service will soon provide customers with more shipping options just in time for the holiday mailing season. Using Priority Mail Flat Rate Boxes, customers will be able to mail packages — regardless of the parcels' weight or destination — for just $7.70 each.

The Governors of the Postal Service approved this new Priority Mail option as a two-year test, and it will be available Nov. 20, 2004 at most Post Offices and online at USPS.com. The new boxes don't have to be weighed, and there are no zone chart and rate calculations required.

Customers can get the value of Priority Mail in two convenient shapes at one consistent price. “Services that are easy to access and simple to use provide real value for our customers,” said Stephen M. Kearney, Vice President of Pricing and Classification for the U.S. Postal Service.

“We look forward to testing the convenience of flat-rate pricing for Priority Mail packages, especially among small businesses and consumers.”

The Priority Mail Flat-Rate boxes are available in two shapes: 11-7/8 inches x 3-3/8 inches x 13-5/8 inches (ideal for garments, board games, books and other relatively thin items) and 11 inches x 8-1/2 inches x 5-1/2 inches.

Kearney said knowing the $7.70 price in advance should help customers ship packages quickly and easily, making the boxes very convenient for the upcoming holiday season.

He noted that paying the flat-rate Priority Mail box postage also is simple and convenient. The price is $7.70 regardless of the weight or destination. For the ultimate convenience, customers can use Click-N-Ship, offered online though USPS.com, to print a shipping label and pay the $7.70 postage, and use Carrier Pickup online notification to let their Post Office know they have a package to be collected when their letter carrier delivers their mail the following day.

Customers can also affix two $3.85 Jefferson Memorial stamps, use a postage meter indicia or any combination of U.S. postage stamps.

Hope I didn't forget anyone posting so far...Just a pop in to say thank you for today's thread. God bless & keep our men & women in the military keeping us safe at home. We are forever in your debt.

[Pastnowfuturealpha]

God bless our troops and the nation!

Also, have a question - does anyone know where to find the DVD - the Sand one - would like to purchase it "just" to give money to the cause - Having seen the H&C show the other night. Guess once production cost are met - the rest of the money will probably go to support our troops and their families -

That's other than Amazon - they don't deserve any business -

Thanks - and Great Thread!
