Holly Ridge Happenings

Tonight as you fold back your bed covers and lay your head upon the pillow, fold your hands in prayer and lay this day at the feet of your Heavenly Father. Wrap your failures and regrets in a prayer of forgiveness, your blessings, joys and successes in a prayer of Thanksgiving, and your cares for tomorrow in a prayer of surrender. And give them all to God. Then, with a smile on your face and peace in your heart, wrap up in the warm embrace of your Heavenly Father and enjoy sweet sleep.

Humor

A little boy was waiting for his mother to come out of the store. As he waited, he was approached by a man who asked, “Son, can you tell me where the Post Office is?” 

The little boy replied, “Sure, just go straight down this street and at the end turn to your right.” 

The man thanked the boy kindly and said, “I’m the new minister in town. I’d like for you to come to church on Sunday. I’ll show you how to get to Heaven. 

The little boy replied with a chuckle. “Aww, come on. You don’t even know the way to the Post Office.

Until I Learned

Until I learned to trust, I never learned to pray.

I never learned to fully trust till sorrows came my way. 

Until I felt my weakness, His strength I never knew

 Nor dreamed till I was stricken that He would see me through.

 Who deepest drinks of sorrow, drinks deepest, too, of grace.

 He sends the storm of He Himself can be our hiding place. 

 His heart that seeks our highest good knows well when things annoy.

 We would not long for Heaven if earth held only joy.

How Big Is God?

A boy asked his father, “Dad, what is the size of God?” 

Then the father looked up at the sky and saw a plane and asked his son: “What is the size of this plane?” 

The boy replied: “It is very small, I can hardly see it. 

Then, the father took him to the airport and as they approached a plane, he asked: “Now, my son, how big is this plane?” 

The boy replied “Wow dad, it’s huge!”
