When I was a young boy Sunday was truly a day of rest from the activities of the week. Businesses, including retail stores and gas stations, were closed for the day to give employees a day off to rest. All that has changed. Now we go twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. Our schedules are filled with endless activities. No time to stop and be still. When we do have extra time, technology, which was supposed to make life simpler, fills that space.
Our Throne Rights - Sarah Foulkes Moore
The Lord is head over all principalities, power, might, and dominion and every name that is named in this world and in the world to come. His position and power is supreme. The risen Lord enthroned at God’s right hand rules “far above” every other force which seeks to control and govern this dark world.
The Way is Closed - Stephen Westlund
There is a road near home that we like to take because it takes us around the busy state highway traffic. Recently our town decided to close the entire road and put in a roundabout. One day, when I was driving home with my youngest son, I decided to drive the back-way even though I knew the detour would take me well out of the way. The highway was exceptionally busy that day, and so I planned a different way.
