Jeremiah 18:12: “And they said, There is no hope, but we will walk after our own devices and we will everyone do the imaginations of his own evil heart.” “If I do it, I get a vippin,—– I do it.” Red Skelton -Mean Little Kid That is quite a thing for the
Luke 2:13: “ And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,” Growing up in a church I quickly learned that music played an very important role in your life. If you could not sing or play a musical instrument, then, well what good were

John 5:44 “How can ye believe, which receive honor one of another, and seek not the honor that [cometh] from God only?” Last night I was sort of feeling sorry for myself so I decided to cheer myself up a little and go to Amazon.com and look up the reviews on my books
