Earlier this summer I
ventured over the river and through the woods,
not to Grandma's house, but to see an event
called "Hannibal Rocks!"
Jeeps and small trucks with
oversized tires and heavy duty frames attempted
to crawl over an impossible obstacle course full
of dangerous terrain. Some navigated their
way safely, but most of them could not complete
the course. Some broke axles, some flipped
over, and some got stuck and had to quit.
At that point, a huge crane would swoop down and
come to the rescue to lift the stranded and
broken vehicle to safety.

When people are forced to try
and navigate, not through an obstacle course,
but through difficult circumstances in life,
many end up broken, hurt, or just feel stuck in
life. If we ask for help, that's when God
comes in and lifts us out of danger and places
us on safe ground.
The bible says,
"God is
our refuge and strength, a very present help in
trouble." Psalm 46:1
Today, if you are feeling
hurt, broken or stuck in life and want help,
reach out to God and ask Him to help you.
He can pick you up and give you a brand new
start because He loves you!

For the
neediest children in the Quincy area, the simple
joys of a childhood summer may seem unattainable.
These at-risk kids will spend their summer wandering
the streets or hanging out with other idle kids --
many of them bad influences...a recipe for trouble.
That's
where The Salvation Army comes in. Time spent at
camp can be life changing and help to instill
feelings of self worth and offer hope.
For more
information on available summer camps, contact
Melanie Mowers at 217-222-2087.
