A Sheer Gift

James 1:2 says “Consider it a sheer gift, when tests and challenges come at you from HandHeadWoman.jpgall sides.”(Msg) So on those days when your spouse, children, mother-in-law and cocker-spaniel are all screaming for attention at the same time a check is missing in the check register and the fridge is dying and melting all over the kitchen floor…you need to think,“sheer gift”. Uh-huh… this is obviously going to take some practice! —Kathy

Laying Hands on Mules

(From Kathy’s great grandfather’s booklet “Experiences Under Tests and Trials”, CT Carleton) “One Sunday this other preacher and I were going to church in a wagon, we were already late and one of the mules laid down in that deep sand, harness and all, sick. I said, man what are we doing to do? We are already late. He said get out and lets lay our hands on this mule and ask God to heal him. We did and God healed that mule and he jumped up and we went on to church. Who wouldn’t praise a God like that?”
