2008.04.14 Monday Morning!

Today, with greetings from Pilgrim Presbyterian Church, located in the heart of Vinita, Oklahoma, comes a Monday Morning message from the late Professor Leo F. Buscaglia. Have you read any of his books? They are filled with love and hope, and I highly recommend them.

In Living, Loving and Learning (page 171), Dr. Buscaglia wrote, "we can turn despair into hope...there are two big forces at work, external and internal. We have very little control over external forces such as tornadoes, earthquakes...floods...illness and pain. What really matters is the internal force. How do we respond to disasters?"

I suggest that an answer to that important question may be found in Matthew 7:24-27. Dust off your Bible and read this short passage. Does it speak of your need to build your life, day by day, on an enduring rock?

Peace and in friendship,

Richard
