Contributed by Victor Yap on Dec 25, 2007

Esther, Pt. 1

OUT OF THE ASHES (ESTHER 1) I have little to no interest in crossword puzzles or any other kind of puzzles; it sure is a puzzle why people bother, but it is a sight to see crossword puzzle fans patiently working on the latest puzzle in their newspaper and to see how they cannot get enough of it. ...read more

Out Of Sight

Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 4, 2008

For Ascension Sunday: Whether we work diligently when our supervisor is out of sight is a measure of commitment and character. Compare Matthias, who took a job he did not ask for; and Joseph Justus, who was passed over.

When you see your supervisor, you work. When you do not see your supervisor, you may work, but your work style is likely to slow down. The difference between those two things is the measure of your character and your commitment. When you see your supervisor, you work diligently. You know that ...read more

Time Out

Contributed by J Bernard Taylor on Sep 30, 2008

Just as the ball players take time out from the game, we must take time out to spend with God.We take time out for rest and refreshment. We take time out for reflection before we return to the game. We finally take time out to receive our reward.

All of us have seen it many times on our television screens or in person. Ten men rush frantically up and down the basketball court. Suddenly the piercing shriek of a whistle is heard above the roar of the crowd and someone shouts “Time Out”. Or picture a baseball diamond. It is a crucial ...read more
