Holly Ridge Happenings
What ever use man makes of the bible, the standards of truth, the standard itself remains fixed, tried, and unimpaired.
When I read a great author, such as Lord Bacon, I find that time has discovered many errors, and rendered obsolete many positions, to be found in that most comprehensive of human minds. But, I see that time can take nothing from the Bible.
I find it a living monitor. Like the sun, it is the same in its light and influence to man this day, which it was ages ago. It can meet every current inquiry. It can console under every present loss; and it can become. in God’s hand, a daily exciting cause of growth and comfort.
Stopping in Tuesday morning for a cup of coffee with me was “Bottons” Cooper. Several come in while he was here and enjoyed visiting with him. I thought he had forgotten the way here, Ha!
Called Mrs. Evelyn’s house on her 92nd birthday. She now lives in Maine where her son Billy has his doctor’s residence. She wishes to say hello to all her frieind around here!
We welcome little Eliana Marie Bolster to God’s world. Josh and Jenna Bolster are her very proud parents. She was welcomed home by her big brothers, Stephen, Ethan and Maxwell. Steve and Janice Lofton are her proud grandparents, Dan and Doris Martinze are the great grands. Josh and Jenna brought Eliana to Bethel on Sunday where they had her dedication. Very impressive.
