Pursue the things over which Christ pre- sides. Don't shuffle along, eyes to the ground, absorbed with the things right in front of you. Look up, and be alert to what is going on around Christ— that's where the action is. See things from his perspective. 3- 4—Your old life is dead. Your new life, which is your real life (even though invisible to spec- tators)is with Christ in God. He is your life. When Christ (your real life, remember) shows up again on this earth, you'll show up, too—the real you, the glorious you. Mean- while, be content with obscu- rity, like Christ.

Dr. Robert Asa, Minister Love Is "Love is patient and kind; loves does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong do- ing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all thing, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love nev- er ends." I Corinthians 13:4-7 "As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away."

What more can He say than to you He hath said, to you who for refuge to Jesus have fled? Fear not; I am with thee. Oh, be not dismayed. For I am thy God, I will still give thee aid. I'll strengthen thee, help th- ee, and cause thee to stand, upheld by My gracious, om- nipotent hand.

When thro' fiery trials thy pathways shall lie, My grace, all sufficient, shall by thy sup- ply. The flames shall not hurt thee; I only design thy dross to consume and thy gold to re- fine. E'en down to old age all My people shall prove My sov'reign, eternal, unchange- able love; and when hoary hairs shall their temples adorn, like lambs they shall still in My bosom be borne.

Then some stood up and gave this false testimony against him: "We heard him say, 'I will destroy this tem- ple made with human hands and in three days will build an- other, not made with hands.'" Yet even then their testimony did not agree. Then the high priest stood up before them and asked Jesus, "Are you not going to answer? What is this testimony that these men are bringing against you? " But Je- sus remained silent and gave no answer. Again the high priest asked him, "Are you the Messiah, the Son of the Bless- ed One? " "I am," said Jesus. "And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven." The high priest tore his clothes. "Why do we need any more witnesses? " he asked. "You have heard the blasphemy. What do you think? " They all condemned him as worthy of death. (Mark 14:57-64). Joe Henson, Pastor Matt Haycraft, Reporter JESUS CHRIST OUR FIRM FOUNDATION 1415 N.

Who do you know who might need some encourage- ment? What act of practical kindness can you offer to en- courage them? "Heavenly Father, open my eyes to the needs of peo- ple around me. Give me the wisdom to know how to show kindness and care to them"— Amen. Josh Sanders, Pastor Sherry Julian, Reporter WHITE RIVER CHAPEL UMC 3555 W.
