Separating them was a fence running through the group. In the scene set, both Jesus and Satan began calling to people in the group. One by one, each having made up his or her mind, went to either Jesus or Satan. This kept going for a time. Soon enough, Jesus had gathered around him a group of people from the larger crowd, as did Satan. One man joined neither group. He climbed the fence that was there and sat on it. Jesus and his people left and disappeared, and so too did Satan and his people. The man on the fence sat alone. As this man sat, Satan came back, looking for something which he appeared to have lost. The man said, “Have you lost something?” Satan looked straight at him and replied, “No, there you are. Come with me.” The man said, “But I sat on the fence. I chose neither you nor him.” Satan said, “That’s okay; I own the fence.”

To talk a little while. I need a friend who’ll listen. To my anxiety and trial. You see, I can’t quite make it. Through a day just on my own. I need your love to guide me, So I’ll never feel alone. I want to ask you please to keep My family is safe and sound. Come and fill their lives with confidence. For whatever fate they’re bound. Give me faith, dear God, to face Each hour throughout the day And not to worry about things. I can’t change in any way. I thank you, God, for being home. And listening to my call, For giving me such good advice When I stumble and fall. Your number, God, is the only one. That answers every time. I never get a busy signal, Never had to pay a dime. So thank you, God, for listening. To my troubles and my sorrow. Good night, God, I love You too, And I’ll call again tomorrow! Meditation: Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me. – Psalm 50:15 You Will

Amazingly,… I once watched a most incredible thing. I watched a small bird trying to gather string, which I presumed would have gone into the building of a nest. Amazingly, this little creature acting on instinct alone would gather this kind of material for building. You see, a bird cannot reason, “A piece of string would be nice to use for building my nest, so I’ll take it.” God has given this little bird the instinct to function. You probably are thinking, “What’s so incredible about watching a bird do what it naturally does?” I watched as the bird made several attempts to gather the string. She would pick up one end of the string in her beak and fly upward, but the string would fall, and she would try again. This activity went on for several minutes. What made this so incredible to me was that the other end of the string was attached to a boat sitting on a boat trailer. I thought of the bird’s persistence in her efforts. No matter how many times she failed, the bird kept on trying. How often do you and I show

Author – Unknown “What has God ever done for me?” grumbled an angry 23-year-old man named Victor. “I mean, why should I believe this so-called God guy loves me as you say He does when He hasn’t done anything to help me or my life?!” “Oh?” said his uncle sitting next to him on the bus. “What do you feel has gone wrong in your life that God caused?” he continued. Victor snapped, “I didn’t say God caused it, but He sure didn’t do anything to help me out! I had to deal with some pretty bad things all on my own, and, no thanks to Him, I fixed them all on my own too!” His uncle nodded slightly and replied, “I assume you are referring to the hard time you began having when you got involved in street drugs and heavy drinking?” “That’s part of it,” responded Victor as he glared out the bus window. His uncle turned to look at him, and then said, “Did your parents teach you, or tell you to get involved with these dangerous substances that can
