Uses for Vinegar

Did you know you can use vinegar as a cleaner and disinfectant? As a fabric softener to remove residue from detergent and to soften clothes? As an odor remover- Vinegar is a natural odor remover. As a stain remover- Use baking soda and then spray with white vinegar. Rub it in then wash as usual. As a blemish treatment- Mix 1 teaspoon salt and 3 tablespoons white vinegar. Dab the blemish with a clean cotton ball. Wait 30 minutes and rinse with water. So next time just buy a bottle of white vinegar for all around the house.

WORSHIP

The following is all about worship. 1) Do you prepare for worship? Prepare your heart for worship, you need to leave all the things of the world behind and prepare to come into the presence of God. Do you know when you come to church that is the house of the Lord and we should be respectful of His house. The Spirit and truth should be the focus of your worship. 2) Worship can be your prayer time if you humble yourself because worship is to enter into the presence of God. You are talking directly to God , humble yourself in the presence of God. 3) Worship is not just a feeling, worship is a heart condition. Is God pleased with the condition of your heart? Do you bear a grudge against someone? Do you show mercy? If you do not show mercy you will not receive mercy. 4) What is your focus during worship? Are you more interested in where you will eat lunch? Are you more focused on what someone is wearing? Are you more focused on the color of the carpet or the chair you are sitting in? You are in God's house and in the presence of God your worship should be pleasing to God not people. You will someday know your loved ones in heaven but your focus will be on God. God will be exalted in the highest. This is the second time I have posted this lesson about our worship, but I felt lead to do so and I try to follow when I am prompted. Maybe someone needs to see this today so they can be ready and eager to worship in the House of our Living Savior. With love and prayers, Edith

Salvation is a Gift, you can not earn it.

Salvation is gifted to us by God alone. Colossians Chapter 1 tells us that it is by His might that salvation is accomplished, it is the Father that qualifies us for the inheritance, it is He alone who delivers us from the darkness, and it’s through His son in which we have been redeemed. In other words, we don’t do the saving because He has already done it. Therefore, in light of what God has done for us, our role is to proclaim the gospel message and display a conduct with our lives that would point others to His glory. Quoted by Cody Parman our Youth Minister, I found it interesting and wanted to share with all to read.
