Construction Continues on Football Stadium

The Allen Board of Education met Monday evening, July 11th, for their regular monthly meeting with four members present. In attendance were Jeff Maloy, Frayne Black, Chad Goodson and Cindy Davis. Also present were the three school administrators, superintendent Bill Caruthers, high school principal Tony Wellington and elementary dean of students Greg Mills, as well as board secretary Brenda Robertson. There were no guests.

Following the Statement of Open Meeting Law, the consent agenda was approved. These items included purchase orders and encumbrances, the treasurer’s and activity

fund reports, the approval for math and science credits earned by Allen students at the Pontotoc Technology Center, and travel requests for the upcoming coaches’ clinic, the OSSBA/COSSA conference summer conference and new teachers’ academy. It also included pay rates for tutors and bus drivers, and the sanctioning of outside booster clubs for 2017.

The administrative report from the school superintendent informed the board that all ties have been severed with the Land Run corporation and the architect firm previous engaged for the failed bond issue. Work continues on the football stadium, and

the staff is working hard to get everything ready for the start of the new year on August 18th.

Action items discussed and acted upon were the renewing of the remaining QZAB Lease-Purchase agreement and the Ag pickup lease for fiscal year 2017.

F ollowing an executive session, the Board approved the offer of the position of Financial Secretary in the Administrative office to Lisa Cundiff and authorized her signature for the activity fund accounts.

The meeting adjourned at approximately 10:20 p.m.

Adam Colbert proudly holds a baseball signed by his grandfather, Bud Yount, in 1948 when he was drafted to play baseball in the major leagues. The ball had originally been given to Don Olivo and his son, Terry Olivo, discovered it while going through items in Mr. Olivo’s office. He gifted the keepsake to his good friend, Adam.

In just a few short weeks school will start. This year our youngest son and his wife will homeschool their son. We fully support their decision. In fact, if Dayna and I were starting over that is exactly what we would do.

Over 100,000 students in Oklahoma are now educated outside of the public school system.

Brandon Dutcher had an interesting article on this growing movement . . .

Oklahoma’s budget crunch has been much in the news lately. But imagine how much worse the situation could be.

“Oklahoma has about 692,000 students in public schools,” says Shawn Hime, executive director of the Oklahoma State School Boards Association. “According to the U.S. Census and data from the National Center for Education Statistics, more than 100,000 students are educated outside of the public school system.”

Imagine if 100,000 new students showed up at their local public school tomorrow morning (“I’m here for my free education, please!”) If our elected officials wanted to keep per-pupil spending at its current level, they would have to come up with another billion dollars annually, based on numbers from the Oklahoma Cost Accounting System.

One of our policymakers’ chief priorities is public education, i.e., making sure we have an educated public. Fortunately, it doesn’t matter where that education takes place.

Some of it takes place in public schools, for which our political leaders are spending some $10,000 per student (according to the Oklahoma State Department of Education’s own numbers).

Some of it takes place outside of the public school system—in home schools, for example, or in accredited private schools, where the median tuition is %5,310, according to the Oklahoma Private School AccreditationCommission. Cash-squeezed appropriators should be grateful for these thousands of parents who are picking up the tab themselves.

Indeed, politicians should try to save even more money (and reduce school overcrowding) by redirecting some of those 692,000 students into the nonpublic sector.

Many parents would jump at the chance. In the last two years, three different scientific surveys have asked Oklahomans what type of school they would prefer for their children. Each time, many respondents (48 percent, 50 percent, and 30 percent) said they would choose a nonpublic alternative.

Policymakers should try to bridge the gap between actual enrollment and what parents want. A $5,000 voucher, tax credit, or education savings account, for example—even if it didn’t cover the full tuition amount—would spur some of those 692,000 to choose alternatives outside of the public school system. (As for the 100,000 already outside the system? Sorry, I’m afraid in this budget climate that would be too tall an order.)

Redirecting some of those 692,000 students would have a positive fiscal impact on the public school system, but that’s a subject for another day. What’s important here is that it would have a positive fiscal impact on taxpayers and their elected leaders—leaders who are trying each year to build roads and bridges, fund mental health programs, incarcerate criminals, increase teacher pay, and much more. This positive impact on taxpayers—now paying $5K instead of $10K, in my example above—is obvious enough. We already see the principle at work with Oklahoma’s higher education vouchers.

For example, the Oklahoma Tuition Equalization Grant—which is nearly identical in structure to Oklahoma’s private-school voucher program in common education (the Lindsey Nicole Henry Scholarship)—is a modest $2,000 grant for students enrolling in private colleges. Created with strong bipartisan support in 2003, the grant has saved taxpayers more than $50 million, according to Oklahoma Independent Colleges and Universities.

Dr. Greg Forster, author of a research synthesis of the school-choice literature, says that out of 28 empirical studies, 25 find that school choice saves money for taxpayers and three are neutral. No empirical study has ever found that school choice has a negative fiscal effect on taxpayers.

In sum, policymakers staring at Oklahoma’s budget hole should (1) thank the parents of 100,000 students

that the hole’s not a lot deeper, and (2) try to entice some of the parents of 692,000 students to help fill that hole.

—CC— Speaking of homeschooling . . .

By Kyle Peterson WSJ “For the past month, Ben Sasse, the junior U.S. senator from Nebraska, has been tweeting out his “lessons from the ranch”—or, rather, his daughter’s lessons. While her peers across the country might have spent much of the past few weeks lolling about their bedrooms, staring at smartphones instead of doing homework, 14-year-old Corrie Sasse was hours from home, laboring as a farmhand in exchange for room and board.

“We just believe in work,” Mr. Sasse tells me. “In our family we try to figure out ways that our kids can work.” The freedom to do so is one benefit of home schooling, since Mr. Sasse and his wife, Melissa, clearly consider working hard an education in itself.

Corrie seems to have taken the ranch assignment in stride, texting updates to her father, who then shared them on Twitter. Production agriculture, she learned, can be a dusty, dirty, smelly business, not least during calving season, when this particular ranch expects 300 new arrivals.

Text #FromTheRanch: “Today we checked to confirm some cows were pregnant—which Megan did by jamming her hand up their rectum.

Eww.” We should confirm, for the uninitiated, that the pregnancy-check generally involves a shoulderlength disposable glove . . . but still. Mr. Sasse says that surprise, more than anything, helped his daughter overcome the ick factor: “It was just all of a sudden, the moment they were at, and she was told to do it, and that was the work that needed to be done that day.” Corrie donned the long glove too.

Tex #FromTheRanch: “Am not going to call now.

I need to get some sleep before checking cows— and feed the fats—at midnight . . .By the way, Dad, the ‘fats’ are cows soon to be slaughtered.”

The senator, as a youngster, got his own lesson in hard work from agriculture: In Fremont, the town outside of Omaha where he grew up, detasseling corn was an adolescent rite for six weeks of summer. Teens would meet at the football field early in the morning and be bussed to the corn field. It was good money:

minimum wage, plus a retroactive bonus of 15 cents an hour is you never missed a day.

They would wear sweatshirts and ponchos made from Hefty bags to work in the chilly, dew=dampened cornfields in the morning. By noon, with the heat bearing down, the boys would be shirtless and cornstalks now sun-dried and sharp-edged. “They’d cut your chest open,” Mr. Sasse recalls. “Your chest and your neck and your cheeks, we’d get big, nasty corn rash.”

Text #FromTheRanch: “Set a new Personal-Record for dogs on the back of my four-wheeler: FOUR!” In the early afternoon the detasseling crews headed home, exhausted. “I remember days where I’d come in after being hosed off and fall asleep at 2:00 in the afternoon,” Mr. Sasse says, “and you’d sleep until the next morning, when your alarm went off at 4:30.”

But he sounds almost spiritual about it: “You knew, when you were doing really hard work, that this kind of suffering was building character. You were a seventhgrader, but you still knew what was happening. And I really worry that that’s being lost.”

Text #FromTheRanch: “It’s been 2weeks since I learned the manual tractor & today I drove 1979 stick F-150. Can’t wait to show u when u visit.”

The senator continues: “Adolescence is underdefined right now. There used to be a lot more clarity about what coming of age meant, and it was a gift that older generations gave to the rising generation.”

When Mr. Sasse in 2009 became president of Midland University, a Lutheran liberal-arts school in Fremont, the change was apparent: “It was a very, very rare experience for an incoming freshman to have done really hard work. And it scared the heck out of me.”

Text #FromTheRanch: “To the cows we left for slaughter in Wausa I said: ‘We are done feeding you.

Now it’s your turn to feed us.’”

There’s also something to be said for knowing where your groceries come from. It’s hard not to notice that the less contact Americans have with farmers, the more afraid they become of food—GMOs and gluten and whatnot. The point is more than metaphorical: When Mr. Sasse visited the ranch last week, he brought

Devotion of the Week

Saint Augustin is well known for his oft quoted saying, “You have made us for Yourself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it rests in You.” His only desire was to know God intimately and worship Him faithfully.

One of God’s greatest gifts is the incompleteness we feel until we allow Him to make us complete in Christ. The emptiness we fell and the desire we have for “something more” seems to come with every beat of our hearts.

Often this longing is never realized unless God forces us into a corner or shuts us in a dark room. Recently a friend said, “The best thing that ever happened to me was to be diagnosed with cancer. It stopped me short and made me realize that everything I thought would bring me peace and satisfaction was an illusion. None of my accomplishments mattered any more nor could any of the wealth I accumulated purchase any peace. My cancer made me realize that everything I had could not be exchanged for one simple heart beat or breath of fresh air.

Often it takes a serious illness or other tragedy in life to force us to face the reality of our helplessness, hopeless and emptiness. Many times we think that our “business” in church activities will bring us peace when we face the uncertainties of life.

When David faced a spiritual collapse he knew exactly what to do and where to go and Who had the solution: “My soul thirsts for You; my body longs for You.” Seeds of Hope

Smile of the Week While driving down a country road, a traveler saw a farmer standing in the middle of a huge field. He pulled over, walked out to the farmer and asked, “Excuse me, but what are you doing?”

The farmer said, “Trying to win a Nobel Prize.”

“How?” the man asked, puzzled.

“Well, I heard they give the Nobel Prize to people who are out standing in their field.”

home some meat from the animals raised there.

Text #FromTheRanch: “Had a stillbirth last night. Sad—but I can hand off my bottle-heifer. We paired the newly babyless mama with my orphan.”

More than one parent reading this must be thinking: How can I send my teenager off to a ranch?

Mr. Sasse says he has received dozens of inquiries. “I don’t have a placement agency process for this,” he says.

You’ll have to find your own herd—though what’s a bit of calling around?

Particularly if it might help impart wisdom like this: “AT THE END OF THE DAY, A CERTAIN LEVEL OF CONSUMPTION IS NECESSARY TO SUSTAIN LIFE,” Mr. Sasse says. “But production, and doing things that benefit your neighbor, they’re what give life meaning.”

—CC— Many of us appreciate the “tips” given to us in emails. M. Buney is one of those that wants to extend his appreciation to those of you that have “educated” him this year . . .

As we progress through 2016, I want to thank you for your educational emails over the past year. I am totally screwed up now and have little chance of recovery. . . . I can no longer open a bathroom door without using a paper towel, not let the waitress put lemon slices in my ice water without worrying about the bacteria on the lemon peel. . . . I can’t sit down on a hotel bedspread because I can only imagine what has happened on it since it was last washed. . . . Eating a little snack sends me on a guilt trip because I can only imagine how many gallons of trans fats I have consumed over the years. . . . I can’t touch any woman’s handbag for fear she has placed it on the floor of a public toilet. . . . I must send my special thanks for the email about rat poo in the glue on envelopes because I now have to use a wet sponge with every envelope that needs sealing. . . . ALSO, now I have to scrub the top of every can I open for the same reason. . . . I can’t use cancercausing deodorants even though I smell like a water buffalo on a hot day. . . . Thanks to you I have learned that my prayers only get answered if I forward an e-mail to seven of my friends and make a wish within five minutes.

. . . Because of your concern, I no longer drink Coca Cola because it can remove toilet stains. . . . I no longer buy fuel without taking someone along to watch the car, so a serial killer doesn’t crawl in my back seat when I’m filling up. . . . I no longer use Cling Wrap in the microwave because it causes seven different types of cancer. . . . And thanks for letting me know I can’t boil a cup of water in the microwave anymore because it will blow up in my face, disfiguring me for life. . . . I no longer go to the cinema because I could be pricked with a needle infected with AIDS when I sit down. . . . I no longer go to shopping centers because someone will drug me with a perfume sample and rob me . . . . . And I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a number for which I will get a huge phone bill with calls to Jamaica, Uganda, Singapore and Uzbekistan. . . . And thanks to your great advice I can’t ever pick up a penny coin dropped in the car park because it was probably placed there by a sex molester waiting to grab me as I bend over. . . . I can’t do any gardening because I’m afraid I’ll get bitten by the Violin Spider and my hand will fall off. . . . If I don’t send my next email to at least 144,000 people in the next 70 minutes, a large dove with diarrhea will land on my head at 5:00 p.m. tomorrow afternoon, and the fleas from 120 camels will infest my back, causing me to grow a hairy hump. I know this will occur because it actually happened to a friend of my next-door neighbor’s ex mother-in-law’s second husband’s cousin’s best friend’s beautician! . . . Oh, and by the way . . . . . . A German scientist from Argentina, after a lengthy study, has discovered that people with insufficient brain activity read their emails with their hand on the mouse. . . . Don’t bother taking it off now, it’s too late.

P.S. I now keep my toothbrush in the living room, because I was told by email that water splashed over 6 ft out of the toilet.

Keep your emails coming. They may be saving my life.

Memorial Service Sunday, August 7 for Lori Cozad Hill

Lori Cathleen Cozad Hill, 38, passed away at her home in Merritt Island, Florida, on Wednesday, July 20, 2016.

In accordance with Lori’s wishes, cremation has taken place and a Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday, July 31, 2016, at 5:00 PM, at The Tides Collocated Club, 1001 North Highway, A1A S Atlantic Ave, Patrick AFB, FL 32925. Following the Life Celebration, some of Lori’s ashes will be scattered on the beach she so dearly loved.

Lori sought solace in the ocean and beach, where she found peace watching the waves roll in. It was a place she could meditate and be with the abundant wildlife that call the ocean and beaches home.

On one occasion, while quietly meditating, she observed a large sea turtle emerge from the waves, come onto the beach and lay her eggs in the sand.

The mother turtle very carefully covered her eggs to ensure the safety of her young, then she quietly

disappeared back into the peaceful ocean waves.

Lori was elated and forever changed by this remarkable act of nature.

Her home was decorated with sea turtles, she talked about them often, and her family knew that when birthday and Christmas came, the perfect gifts were something related to sea turtles. In support of her love the ocean, beach and sea turtles, memorial contributions in Lori’s name may be made to The Sea Turtle Preservation Society (STPS) in Indialantic, Florida, by calling 321-676-1701, or going to http://www.seaturtlespacecoast.org/getinvolved/donations-adopta-turtle/ . Please enter memorial to: Lori C. Hill, 2711 Barrow Drive, Merritt Island, FL, 32952.

For Lori’s many friends and family who live around Oklahoma and Kansas, a second Celebration of Life memorial service will be held at the Free Will Baptist Church, in Allen, Oklahoma at 2:00 PM on Sunday, August 7, 2016.

Following the service, brief comments and interment of Lori’s ashes will be in the Allen Cemetery.

Lori was born on July 11, 1978, to Judy A. Young (Cozad) and Johnny Wayne Cozad. Lori lived in Oklahoma until she was six years old, when she began to travel and see the world via her mother’s assignments in the U.S. Air

Force. The first stop was San Antonio, Texas, where Lori entered first grade.

She quickly made friends, and was soon on the soccer team and the cheerleading squad. Both of these activities followed her as she and her mother moved to the next Air Force assignment at Lajes Field, Air Force Base, in the Azores, Portugal.

In the Azores, Lori discovered an environment unlike any she had previously known – no crime, no dangers (other than falling off a horse), and an entire island full of family and friends. She rode horses up to the ER doors, and called for her mother to come out and chat (not something usually seen in Air Force Hospital ERs!). She was a star soccer player, and kept her mother busy attending the games!

From the Azores, Lori and her mother moved to Germany. Here Lori experienced world events (the first Gulf War), fun, outings, alpine skiing, and an extended Air Force family that included so many friends that birthdays and sleep overs were a weekly event! Lori was in a junior high school ski club that took ski trips to the Alps every year – the stories that girl could tell about all the fun they had!

She continued to play soccer, and was on a traveling soccer team. Weekends

and Matthew Hampton.

Honorary bearers are Luther Brown and Levi McMahan.

Terry was born June 16, 1955 in McAlester, Oklahoma to Lloyd Cannady and Murl (Royer) Cannady. She attended Allen High School and later received her G.E.D. Terry married Rick Littlefield November 23, 1994 in Ada, Oklahoma. Terry was a bank teller for Oklahoma Heritage Bank in Byng and was a member of the Byng Assembly of God Church. Terry was the Sunday School Teacher for the Nursery Class, and the children adored and loved her. She was known to all as “Granny”, and she loved going to garage sales and taking care of her husband, Rick. But most of all, she loved every minute that she could spend with her grandchildren.

She is survived by her husband, Rick Littlefield of the home; two daughters, Amanda McMahan of Ada, Oklahoma and

Becky Turner and husband, Chris of Byng, Oklahoma; honorary daughters, Jaymi Jolley of Stratford, Oklahoma, Sarah Hampton and husband, Matthew of Coalgate, Oklahoma, and Jeri Merrill and husband, Keith of Oklahoma City; two brothers, Mark Cannady and wife, Rhonda of Bartlesville, Oklahoma, and Ed Cannady of Ketchum, Idaho; three sisters, Gwenda Harden of Antlers, Oklahoma, Brenda Branscum of Ponca City, Oklahoma; and Tawni Sanders of Byng, Oklahoma; six grandchildren, Quinn Campbell, Mallory Barnes, Cameron Donaghey, Madison Campbell, Alyvia Turner, and Matthew Turner.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Lloyd and Murl Cannady; one daughter, Jennifer Campbell; one brother, Johnny Cannady; and one sister, Linda Luttrell.

Funeral services were2:00 p.m. Friday, July 22, 2016 at Byng Assembly of God Church under the direction of Swearingen Funeral Home of Konawa, Oklahoma.

Rev. Mitch Williams will officiate and burial will be at Vamoosa Cemetery, east of Konawa. Casket bearers are Steve Littlefield, Kevin Lowe, Rusty Hudson, Burt Dailey, Bobby Sweet,

were packed with fun, traveling, and cars full of girls traveling all over Germany to these weekend long events.

In the summer of 1993, Lori felt the tug of “home” (Oklahoma), and left Germany to live in Allen, Oklahoma, with her father, Johnny. There she attended Allen High School and met friends with whom she remained in contact for the rest of her life.

For her Senior year in High School, Lori went to Ada High. She again played soccer, but this time, she played college soccer for East Central University’s (ECU) girls’ soccer team. Again, Lori quickly established a wonderful network of friends with whom she remained in contact.

After graduation from Ada High, Lori began college at Oklahoma State University (OSU), but she quickly discovered that she wasn’t ready for fulltime college and living away from home, so she returned to Ada where she took part time classes at ECU. She began working for a women’s clothing store chain, where she climbed the ladder quickly, and at the age of 19, became the youngest store manager in a multi-state region. This led to an offer by the district manager, for Lori to move to Tulsa, Oklahoma to assume the assistant manager position of one of the Tulsa stores.

Lori jumped at the chance, and moved to Tulsa.

While in Tulsa, Lori married, gave birth to beautiful daughters Bailee and Kayli, and began working for American Airlines. In 2001, she was 1 of 29 employees, out of about 170,000, selected as American Airlines Employee of the Year. As the events of September 11, 2001 unfolded, American Airlines began laying off thousands of employees.

In 2003, being one of the newest employees in her division, Lori was laid off. In March 2004, Lori and her family moved to

Florida, to be near her mother.

After moving to Florida, and while working as a pharmacy tech for Walgreens, Lori decided it was time to go back to school. She and her family moved to Savannah, Georgia, where she attended South University School of Pharmacy. In 2012, she graduated with a doctorate of pharmacy (PharmD) degree. Her family was so very proud of her, and all joined her in Savannah for a weekend of celebration!

Following graduation, Lori and family moved back to Florida, where she began working as a pharmacist with Walgreens.

Here she made many new friends, and re-established with friends she knew while working as a pharmacy tech. At the time of her death, Lori was a pharmacist for Mike’s Pharmacy, in Cape Canaveral, Florida. She loved her job, and the people she worked with.

Lori is survived by her mother and step father, Judy Young and Bob McLeran, of Merritt Island, Florida, and her father, Johnny Cozad, of Allen, Oklahoma. She is also survived by her beautiful daughters, Bailee, 16 and Kayli, 13, and Kayli’s father Joe Hill, of Melbourne, Florida. Lori has one living grandparent, Juanita Erwin, 94, of Augusta, Kansas. She is survived by loving aunts and uncles Harold and Beverly Erwin of Augusta, Kansas, Jimmy Erwin of Ada, Oklahoma, Kathy and Lester Moore, of Atoka, Oklahoma, and Pam and Bob Loomis of Marietta, Oklahoma. She has 12 cousins, and numerous second cousins.

Lori was a beautiful, vibrant, young woman, who touched many, many lives.

While we mourn the loss of seeing her beautiful smile, her soaring spirit will remain with us always.

Lori’s Family

From a loving father to my precious daughter.

I’ve lived and breathed you all your life and will remain to do so. My heart is broken and the hurt is so deep I know it will never leave me. You were the best thing that ever happened to me. All I ever wanted to do was to love and protect you and be with you. I failed in protecting you, but you are in God’s hands now.

I’m so sorry I failed you and hopefully when my time comes we can talk and be together once again.

I will continue to be so proud of you as I always have.

You will forever be in my heart and your precious memories will always be with me. I will never turn loose. Lori, my precious, darling, sweet baby I will always miss you. You will always be my pride and joy.

With all my love,

Daddy

One Pharmacist’s View Seems like ISIS concentrates on one country such as France and then Germany for a while. Of course now it’s been Germany which is unfortunate for Germany’s liberal refugee loving Chancellor Merkel.

German citizens stood by helplessly last year as their Government facilitated an influx of Middle East Refugees. Mostly Syrian, the hundreds of thousands of young male refugees blending in with this mass migration were already announced by ISIS as being “planted” in Europe and elsewhere as holy warriors. And they have done well for ISIS. The McDonald’s in Munich bloodbath was tragic. Shortly before that a Syrian youth made his appearance on a train with his axe. Then there is the Afghan who walked in as an undocumented “child.”

He hacked a pregnant German woman to death. Her

only crime was of walking down the sidewalk and non-belief. Their common cry is Allah Akbar.

And so it goes. Here in the homeland we have had our peace shattered several times. There was Orlando, Dallas and Louisiana to name a few. Victims of an enemy that our leaders not only can’t protect us from, but find themselves helpless to even say their names. Is it fear or is it a gross lack of concern? In Germany Chancellor Merkel was/ is afflicted with the same malaise. She’s not too sure that ISIS is even responsible. It’s just an isolated incident--they say.

Same thing in France. Our own President Obama, not wanting to stand apart from his European socialist buddies, ridicules his critics by saying, just saying the word, “Moslem Terrorists” will not stop

this problem. in fact, he goes on in his condescending tones saying it seems racist and Un-American to want to use these terms.

Ouch.

But wait! I think we really need to look at this.

I think the liberals are serious in their thinking and this “thinking” is very dangerous. The President said we should fear global warming more than terrorism. He thought the world will be so hot by 2010 that New York and Florida will be swamped by tides. Oh wait. This is 2016 and it hasn’t happened yet. Oh well. Al Gore may be laying low but last week, our Secretary State John Kerry attended the European Union Climate Control Commission meeting in Vienna. Again, Kerry startled reporters and other attendees as soon as he opened his mouth stating (right in the midst of this

Mark Legg Allen Church of Christ

He said, “I still have faith in God; I just quit attending church!” I wondered, doesn’t having “faith in God” mean we do what He commands?

Jesus said that God wants true worshippers to worship Him in spirit and truth. (John 4:2324) Hebrews 10:25 even commands us to not forsake the Christian assembly.

Doesn’t “having faith in God” mean that I trust Him and that I will worship and do as He desires?

In claiming to be Christians, we recognize that we are not able to save ourselves from eternal death (separation from God) in hell. In addition, we recognize that the only means of being saved from this eternal doom is Jesus. He is God’s Son who was sent to bear our sins (Hebrews 9:28) that we might be forgiven and saved. The Apostle Peter said that only Jesus has the words of eternal life. (John 6:68) To be saved, we must place our faith in Him. If the faith we have does not lead us to trust and obey God, it is a dead faith according to James 2:14-26. If the faith we claim to have

does not move us to obey the one who has the words of eternal life how can we hope to be saved?

My doctors told me to take aspirin to help prevent a stroke. If I really have faith in the doctor, will I not take aspirin? God’s Word instructs us to study His word, to seek to know Him and His will. Can I claim to have faith in Him and not seek to understand Him and to know His desires. God’s word commands“He who believes and is baptized will be saved….” (Mark 16:16) What if I will

is way behind Al Gore’s timetable and the numbers of Global Warmer Deniers and others who read the science as basically flawed--has sky rocketed.

What can you do? If you feel terrorism is a bigger threat than global warming you are going to have to change the government. If you think that ”warming” is not as pressing as ISIS, then you need to vote this “ship of fools” out come election time. If you’re OK with ISIS then keep the liberals in. I think the American people deserve the right to pursue happiness and feel safe in their homes and streets. And for starters, I hope you all have a nice peaceful summer weekend and go to Church Sunday.

wave of terrorism) that “I don’t fear terrorism as much as I fear refrigerators and air conditioners.”

“Terrorist can only kill a few hundred at a time but the HFC gasses from refrigerators and air conditioners are going to aid in the killing of every human on the globe.”

That may well explain liberals lack of passion in defending American’s against the terrorists we call ISIS. And if I believed earnestly (like they do) that ISIS is not all that big a threat and global warming is, then I might react just like they are. We have had many years of people yelling “The Sky Is Falling!” That is the world is coming to an end.

Threads of Life

by Cleo LeVally

••• Remembering •••

Each week I print out a copy of my column; check it for type-a-graphical errors and make changes as I think best. As I printed the date of my column this week, I realized that I have been writing this column since 2005. That is eleven years. The date of the first copy I have in my files is February 19, 2005. I do not know if that was a copy of my first column but it is the first date that I have a copy of. With 52 weeks in a year, plus the seven

weeks from February 18, that would be about 579 columns that I have written in these eleven years.

And I have copies of most of them.

In this February 2005 column, I wrote about Lent. I wrote about a devotion that I had given for my church. The title was ‘A Symbol of God’s Devotion.’ In that I wrote: “God’s light shines upon us each moment of every day and we are never

more aware of it than when we look at nature and contemplate all that He has created.

“I have a tree in my back yard that to me represents the true nature of God. When this tree began to sprout, it was in an unwanted location. I would cut it off, mow over it time and time again to try and destroy it and it would sprout again. One year it got past my efforts and when I noticed, it was

too large and strong for my hoe. I let it grow. And grow it did. It became a great tree.

“As the years passed.

I realized it represented what we are. The tree never did give up. It was like the life of a person.

We don’t give up. We survive cuts and bruises, knocks of every kind and we survive all things that come our way. Mostly we keep growing like that

tree. Straight and tall.

“I look at it and realize what a perfect thing God did when He created man. Yes, God created a perfect creature in human form. We abuse our body and mind in every way while on this earth. Yet someday, we will meet Him in perfect form.

“Prayer: ‘Dear God, please help me to be aware of your Spirit every moment of my life, and I pray that you will never withdraw the light of Your presence from me and mine. Amen.’”

own mechanical work even though he only had a tenth grade education. He also developed and designed things that made his farming easier and more efficient. To do this he had to have welders, wrenches and other tools. One day I was at the shop with him as he was working on a piece of equipment he used to plant wheat. Being a curious four-year-old I asked, “Why do you put the grains of wheat in the ground?” My Dad said, “One little grain will grow and produce many more grains of wheat.”

After planting his wheat in the fall he worked on the equipment to get it ready for the next year.

His wrenches had disappeared. He came to the house and told mother all his wrenches were gone.

He asked her if some of the neighbors had borrowed them. She did not know of anyone borrowing his tools. I was innocently standing there when they realized I might know something about this. He asked, “Where in the hell are my wrenches?” I told him I had planted them. I was going to grow more

wrenches for Dad. Fortunately I remembered where I had put them in the ground. We recovered all of them. I know I received a stern lesson about planting tools.

Lesson learned - not all things grow when you put them into the ground...

Saturday Evening at the Movies will begin its new season in our fellowship hall on August 6th at 6:00 P.M. Admission is free, refreshments are free, and the movie is sure to be both inspirational and downright interesting.

We may not have a chandelier in the lobby, but we do have moveable chairs.

That way if the Red Hat ladies or a tall cowboy in a ten gallon hat sits down in front of you, it’s easy to move your chair so that you can see around them.

Better yet, get there early and sit on the front row!

Tom Spillman’s heart surgery went well last Thursday and he is progressing well if not always comfortably. Please continue to pray for him.

Also, my mother broke her hip about a week and a half ago and had to have surgery. Although she is working hard to complete her physical therapy sessions the past week has been a difficult one. She

has several more weeks to go so please pray for her as well.

Oh! …And Shelley Brown’s mother is recovering from knee surgery so she certainly needs our prayers, too. We will never know this side of heaven how much difference our prayers have made in people’s lives..

James Hammonds and Ted Deaton sang “Jesus Hold My Hand” as the special music selection.

They are on the program to sing at the Calvin Free Will Baptist Church next Sunday evening, July 31st., and they are pretty good! If you are in the neighborhood remember to go to church that evening to hear them…… and the preaching, too, of course.

Rev. Brown’s message was from Isaiah 35:1,2.

temple for the Holy Spirit, who is in each of us.

Keeping that in mind, it seems that we Christians are built from 4 kinds of cedars. The first kind is the Little Cedar. It isn’t large or impressive, and a Christian built from this kind of tree is often working in the background, but he or she has stickability and is noted for consistency. This person prays and reads the Word of God daily and is faithful in attendance and giving. They are consistent in their daily walk with Jesus.

Another kind of cedar is the Humming Cedar. The more the wind blows the more these cedars hum.

Christians made with these cedars sing praises to God no matter what trials they are going through.

When faced with adversity they praise their way through it. They rejoice that Jesus is in charge of everything so they remain confident, knowing that there is a blessing on the other side.

Next, is the Fire Cedar. It ignites with only a

spark and is saturated with anointing oil. Sometimes Christians made with this kind of cedar don’t realize that they have the anointing oil of the Holy Spirit for particular missions because they don’t understand it and don’t allow the Holy Spirit to move within them.

Then there is the Tall Cedar. They have an impressive root system to support their great height.

Tall Cedar Christians are rooted in God’s love, devotion, and the Word.

They know that God wants to be President, not just a resident of their home.

They let God help them clean house. Things of the Spirit take the place of

worldly things that Christians are embarrassed for God to find in their home.

If we allow him to, God will even clean out those odoriferous closets in our hearts that harbor bitterness, resentments, and skeletons we wish were not there.

God builds each of us into temples for the Holy Spirit. Several Christians come to mind as we think about these 4 kinds of cedars, and some have the characteristics of more than one type. The more types we let Him include in our transformation, the more beautiful and effective our Christian lives― and thus the Church--will be.
