     | 22,500 views

    I’m convinced that one of the most difficult things that the Scripture asks us to do is found in Romans 12:15. That verse says, “Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.”

    MELVIN NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK (Revised: 2014) ILL. It’s Thanksgiving Day & the aroma of roast turkey fills Charlie Brown’s house.
