We all battle between our two natures: will we choose heavenly treasures over worldly gratification? Paul advised how to win that bat- tle: "So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not grat- ify the desires of the flesh. For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh...Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life" (Galatians 5:16 -17; 6:8). Remember those on our prayer list, the shut ins and our lost loved ones. Ken Reeder, Pastor Karri Brock, Reporter GR ACE G.B. CHURCH 1007 E.

The family is the most important institution in the world. It was God's idea in the first place. It was not the invention of sociologists or economics or government bureaucrats who decided it would make society operate more smoothly. Families ex- isted before cities and gov- ernments, before written language, nations, temples and churches. In the home, character and integrity are formed, values are made clear and goals are set. These last a lifetime. And if they aren't formed correctly that, too will result in patterns- -bad patterns–that last a lifetime, if God doesn't interfere. Today, Satan is attacking the family as never before. But where are our defenses NEW LIBERTY G.B. CHURCH (Coe) 1820 S. Co Rd. 800 S.

Someone has said, "For- giveness is one of the fin- est of the Spiritual graces, and since many honest peo- ple do not know how to for- give, I have a few simple sug- gestions."

Gifts to Use Each of you should use whatever gift you have re- ceived to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms. (1 Peter 4:10, NIV ). All of us as children of God have received a gift or talent to use for him. Be it the gift of being a servant, teacher, preacher, leader, worker or many others; God has blessed us so that we may glorify him and help others on their path so that in turn they will do the same. Ever heard the phrase "One good deed deserves an- other? " Well, this is a great ex- ample of how the love of God can be spread through your gift. If you use your gift in the name of God to help someone, you gain the ability to show them God and his major gift, Jesus dying for our sins, and, in turn, they will use what gift they have to help some- one else. God's gifts are many and his love is greater. Remember to use what gift he has given you to spread his love to oth- ers around you. God bless you and keep you.

Franklin St. Oakland City 812-677-2508 Sunday school 9:30 a.m., morning worship 10 a.m., and Wednesday night at 6 p.m. The Light Jesus said, "I am the Light of the world." How wonder- ful of God to give us some- one to light our way in a dark world. Wouldn't it be a drea- ry life, if we had no natural light to live by? As the sun lights our world so that plants and ani- mal may provide for physical and material needs, so the Son of God lights our soul, providing for every spiritu- al need. And while we cer- OTWELL CONTENDERS OF FAITH Sunday school 9:30 a.m.; worship 10 :30 a.m.; eve- ning worship 6:30 p.m.; Wednesday prayer and Bible study meeting 6:30 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 11, we will tainly know that every good gift, and every perfect gift comes from above, still so many will refuse the perfect light of Christ.
