"WHO IS IN CONTROL?" is
the question being investigated
in Sunday School on July 16.
Believers can be confident that
God is in control of the world; but
in the face of tragedies all around,
believe that God is in control can
be difficult. In what sense does
God control? His control is qual-
flied by human free will because
He gave us the freedom to choose

or reject Him. Many scriptures
tell about the areas of God's mys-
terious and ultimate control of
the world in order to fulfill His
purposes for it. "The Lord foils
the plans of the nations; he
thwarts the purposes of the peo-
ples. But the plans of the Lord
stand firm forever, the purposes
of his heart through all genera-
tions." (Psalm 33:10-11 NIV)
BELIEVERS ARE ASSURED
of His control of the natural order
of the world. "As long as the earth
endures, seedtime and harvest,
cold and hoL summer and winter,
day and night will never cease."
(Genesis 8:22 NIV) God's control
has established the institution of
human government to maintain
stability and security in the social
order. "Everyone must submit
himself to the governing author-
ities, for there is no authority
except that which God has estab-
lished. The authorities that exist
have been established by God."
(Romans 13:1 NIV) Paul meant
that believers should uphold the
law rather than create anarchy.
Democratic governments were
not known in his time; but
Americans have ways to partici-
pate in assuring that the govern-
ment is doing good for its people.
Believers can also know that God
is involved in our world. "And we
know that in all things God works
for the good of those who love
him, who have been called accord-
ing to his purpose." (Romans 8:28
NIV) Join us in at 10:00 a.m.
Sunday as we explore God's con-
trol of our world. Services to wor-
ship our Lord are at 11:00 a.m.
and 7:00 p.m.
Mission action and prayer cir-
cles meeting on qhesday, July 18
at 7:00 p.m. Happy 60s is not meet-
ins in July; the next meeting will
be held on August 17.
God
"Let everything that has
breath praise the Lord. Praise the
Lord!"
Sing praises to God who reigns
above, the God of all creation, the
God of power, the God of love, the
God of our salvation. - Schitz
There are many ways to wor-
ship God, but only one God to wor-
ship.
Sunday was a glorious day in
the Lord. Sunday morning the
Rev. Eller message "Gifts in the
Church," 1Cor. 12:18-11;1412. his
text Sunday evening Acts 2:12,16.
Judy and Mike Thomaston
and Jennifer and Jessica Shelnutt
took a vacation to Orlando a few
days this week.
What is a blessing?
What is a blessing in this life?
is it a kindly nod,
The sunshine of a special smile
Bestowed on us by God.
As blessing is this timely hand
That stays calamity,
On keeps us calm
and sensible
When there is tragedy.
It is each rung we reach upon
Our ladder to success.
And everything along our way
That brings us happiness.
A blessing is our.
loving spouses.
The baby in our arms,
And life itself upon this earth
With all its dreams
and charms *
Each blessing means
so very much.
We should take time to say
A prayer of gratitude to God
For helping us each day.
