Going through the numerous messages I received, I couldn't move away than to share this magnificent message with you my friends….I must say I am inspired. There’s a touch of belongingness and identity. God bless the writer of this piece.

“Take me back to the old Paths, when Moms were at home.

Dads were at work.

Brothers went into the army.

And sisters got married BEFORE having children!

Crime did not pay; hard work did;

And people knew the difference.

Moms could cook; Dads would work;

Children would behave...

Husbands were loving; Wives were supportive; and children were polite.

Women wore the dresses; and Men wore the trousers.

Women looked like ladies; Men looked like gentlemen; and children looked decent.

People loved the truth, and hated a lie;

They came to church to get IN, Not to stay OUT!

Hymns sounded Godly; Sermons sounded helpful and inspiring;

Rejoicing sounded normal; and crying sounded sincere.

Cursing was wicked; Drinking was evil; and divorce was unthinkable.

We read the Bible in public; Prayed in schools;

And preached from house to house.

To be called a Christian was worth living for;

To be called a traitor was a shame!

Sex was a personal word. Homosexual was an unheard and immoral of word, and abortion was an illegal word.

Preachers preached because they had a message; and

Christians rejoiced because they had the VICTORY!

Preachers preached from the Bible;

Singers sang from their heart;

Sinners turned to the Lord to be SAVED!

A new birth meant a new life; Salvation meant a changed life;

Following Christ led to eternal life.

Being a preacher meant you proclaimed the word of God;

Being a deacon meant you would serve the Lord;

Being a Christian meant you would live for Jesus;

And being a sinner meant someone was praying for you!

Laws were based on the Bible;

Homes read the Bible;

And churches taught the Bible.

Preachers were more interested in new converts than new clothes, luxurious houses and new cars.

Church was where you found Christians on the Lord's Day, rather than in the park,

On the creek bank, on the golf course, or being entertained somewhere else.

Give me that old time religion!

'Tis good enough for me!

I still like the "Old Paths" best! Jeremiah 6:16”

Giving the giver that gives you peace and love from the bosom of the size-less heart all the praise We are matching up to the ends of the earth to make sure that our task of discipleship really goes aboard; this is the title of our hymn “LIBERATION FOR PEACE” The Holy Spirit knows boundaries; he cannot be limited in his own jurisdiction. So moving on to proclaim that which we have been taught by the teacher, we shall spearhead the action and affirm someday to come “THAT CHRIST MAY BE IN ALL” Not forgetting to promote the student Apostolate among students in higher education, in the Church’s mission and in the world; we came into existence to continue preaching and teaching the word that have life in itself to manifest wonderful and marvelous things according to the Will of the creator, Our Father...

PEN

This isn’t an acronym. It is a powerful tool. It is blunt but has altered the patterns of history with unequivocal writing success. It has survived all the defining moments through the centuries Ranging from the early reed, quills, and dip pens to the contemporary ballpoint, fountain, and felt pens. History has it that, all users demand a special pen based on the pending purpose of use There is this status symbol attached to any kind of pen that has ever been manufactured. M. Klein and H. W. Wynne had received a US patent for the fountain in 1867. But as early as the 10 th century, the pen had existed. And until this day, it has metamorphosed through many phases and designs. One of my favourites and most used pen from the 20 th to this century has been Michaels Bich’s Bic pen that was invented in the 1950s. It is simply elegant and mighty. The sword could see itself sharp but the pen is supreme. Talk of brainstorming sessions that led to generati...
