TODAY'S PROMISE

"God is our refuge and strength,

a very present help in trouble.

Therefore will not we fear,

though the earth be removed,

and though the mountains be

carried into the midst of the sea;

Though the waters thereof roar

and be troubled, though the 

mountains shake with the swelling

thereof." (Psalms 46:1 - 3)

IGNORED PROOF

O.K.

You have seen them before.  This is a fossil of some

sea shells.  So what is the big deal?

God permitted me to get a few acres of woods here

in the Ozarks.  These woods are near the top of the

hill.  The topo map shows the property to be about

2000 ft. above sea level.  And the nearest sea is about

400 miles away.

Yet,

I have found more than a dozen of these sea shell

fossils scattered around through the woods.

That simply proves that the Bible is correct.

"And the waters prevailed so mightily upon

the earth that all the high mountains under the

whole heaven were covered; the waters prevailed

above the mountains, covering them fifteen

cubits deep."

(Genesis 7:19,20 RSV)

Now you may choose to believe any one of a

number of fairy tales being invented by man 

because they do not want to acknowledge there is

a creator they will have to answer to.  (Yes, some 

theologians take facts and rearrange them to suite 

them selves also.)

After all.  It does make sense that before there

was anything, enough "nothing" got together

to blow it's self up causing everything.  Well,

at least to a pseudo scientist.

Like many other people, I have had a relationship

with the God who created this old world and 

gives you life it's self.  Over the many years He

has answered hundreds of prayers for me.  But

you want me to ignore this relationship just so

you can maintain some theory that ignores Him?  

Forget it, you are too late?

TODAY'S PROMISE

"There will be strange things happing to the sun,

the moon, and the stars  On earth whole countries

will be in despair, afraid of the roar of the sea and

the raging tides.  People will faint from fear as they

wait for what is coming over the whole earth, for 

the powers in space will be driven from their courses.

Then the Son of Man will appear, coming in a cloud

with great power and glory.  When these things

begin to happen, stand up and raise your heads,

because your salvation is near." 

(Luke 21:25 - 28 GNT)

******************

"The promises of the Lord can be trusted;

they are as genuine as silver refined

seven times in the furnace."

(Psalms 12:6 GNT)

1. Meditate on God's Promises.

2. Plead the Promises at the throne of Grace.

3. Act in Faith that God Will Perform His Promises.

(William Gurnall) 

FOSSILS ARE WHERE YOU FIND THEM

THE OLD FOSSIL

No that is not me.

It is better looking than I am and better preserved.

Just another one

The picture below is the area where the fossils were found.  With out trying very hard I have found at least half a dozen fossils in an area of about 40' X 40'.  Most of these are (were) sea shells.

Now what were sea shells doing on top of a hill about fifteen hundred feet above sea level and four hundred miles from the closest sea?

Believe it or not,

"The flood continued forty days upon the earth: and the waters
increased, and bore up the ark, and it rose high above the earth.
The waters prevailed and increased greatly upon the earth; and
the ark floated on the face of the waters.  And the waters prevailed
so mightily upon the earth that all the high mountains under the
whole heaven were covered; the waters prevailed above the
mountains, covering them fifteen cubits deep.  And all flesh
died that moved upon the earth, birds, cattle, beasts, all swarming
creatures that swarm upon the earth, and every man; everything
on the dry land in whose nostrils was the breath of life died.
He blotted out every living thing that was upon the face of the
ground, man and animals and creeping things and birds of
the air; they were blotted out from the earth.   Only Noah was
left and those that were with him in the ark.  And the waters
prevailed upon the earth a hundred and fifty days."
(Genesis 7:17-24 RSV)
