Trail Mix - 1.6.19

January 6, 2019– “As Christians we have been given a “work” to do, that’s right it is work! The Bible has a lot to say about work. Jesus said: “My Father works and I work!” and it also say that “the night cometh when no man can work.” Friends, the night is coming and very fast I might add. Have you ever been out at dusk to watch the sun go down? One minute it’s a big orange ball and the next it’s a receding glow that slowly fades into darkness. Our world is fast approaching spiritual dusk that will soon turn to darkness, just before the “light of the world” returns in bright glory. Let’s work while we can, the light is fading fast, souls hang in the balance. Let’s work till Jesus comes!” Steve Trail

My prayer for you today is that you “choose to serve the Lord” like Joshua and his house.

Weekly Memory Verse Challenge - Joshua 24:15  And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. KJV

“One day, a man walks into a dentist's office and asks how much it will cost to extract wisdom teeth.”Eighty dollars," the dentist says. "That's a ridiculous amount," the man says. "Isn't there a cheaper way?" "Well," the dentist says, "if you don't use an anesthetic, I can knock it down to $60." "That's still too expensive," the man says. "Okay," says the dentist. "If I save on anesthesia and simply rip the teeth out with a pair of pliers, I could get away with charging $20." "Nope," moans the man, "it's still too much." "Hmm," says the dentist, scratching his head. "If I let one of my students do it for the experience, I suppose I could charge you just $10." "Marvelous," says the man, "book my wife for next Tuesday!" ChristiansUnite.com
