                    TOMMY'S DOG
Tommy, one of my neighbor's grandsons, walked into the convenience store and asked the clerk for a box of Tide so that he could wash his dog, Petey. The clerk was appalled and told the boy, "Son, you can't use Tide on a dog. It might hurt him. Are you sure you want Tide?" 
"Oh, yes,"

                    Illustration: The Bay of Fundy at the head of the St. Lawrence River is 110 miles long and 32 miles wide when it empties into the bay. It is a spectacle to see the currents of the mighty St.Lawrence rushing to meet the tides of the Atlantic Ocean. You would think there could never be anything that

                    Pastor Brian McLaren of Cedar Ridge Community Church notes: 
Doubt. It’s like a spiritual drought, a starless night of the soul, a low tide when faith seems to have retreated forever. Nearly all of us experience these dry, dark, difficult times when God doesn’t seem real and it’s hard to keep

                    Lord, send revival in mighty flood-tide;
Send streams of blessing to sweep far and wide.
Send them engulfing like waves of the sea;
Sweep through our lowlands and work mightily.
Send the outpourings of God’s Holy rain
Send mighty cloud-bursts again and again
Strike holy lightning at home and

                    A five year old boy had only one line to remember in a church Christmas pageant.
Appearing in angel's garb, he was to say to the audience, "Behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy!  After practice, the little lad asked his mother, "What in the world does "tidings"

                    I am told that there was a rock on the North Sea, 
just off the Firth of Tay, Scotland. 
This rock proved very dangerous to many ships, 
because when the high tide came in, 
the rock was hidden just below the surface.
There was a warning bell attached to the rock 
by the Abbot of Aberbrothok, so

                    Whom God would destroy, He first makes blind. There comes a point in the rising tide of human wickedness, where God acts. In preparation he blinds.
