It isn't what you have In your pocket that makes you thankful • • • but what you have in your heart• • • • A thief broke into the modest dwelling of Matthew Henry, the celebrated scholar, and stole his purse. But the busy, cheerful, old gentleman, far from being cast down, turned to his diary and indited this optimistic observation: "Let me be thankful: First, because I was never robbed before; second, because although he took my purse, he did not take my life; third, because although he took all I possessed, it was not much; and fourth, because it was I who was robbed, not I who robbed." "Oh give thanks unto the Lord for He is good. His mercy endureth FOREVER." • • • • • Remember, running people down is bad business, whether you're a motorist or a gossip. • • I thank Thee, Lord, that Thy malll}a falls Daily to feed and strengthen me. I thank Thee, Lord, for Thy living springs, A well of water flowing for me. I thank Thee, Lord, for my daily bread, Bread of Thy body, broken for me. I thank Thee, Lord, for the wine of life, Wine of Thy blood, which was spilled for me. -MARTHA SNELL NICHOLSON • • • Prayer must mean something to us, if it Is to mean any· thing to God. • • • * FACTS FOR CHURCH MEMBERS know that: • ....
