My Blog!

 

 As the world spins seemingly out of control with heartbreaking disasters, the constant threat of war and untrustworthy politicians, I am reminded how little I actually have control of in my life.  As our government begins to toss around the word trillions like a tinker toy, it makes me feel small and insignificant.

Not so in God's eyes.  Even though we can't control circumstances or fix many things that are wrong, we can place our trust in One who can.

The bible says in Isaiah,

"For since the beginning of the world men have not heard nor perceived by the ear, nor has the eye seen any God besides You, who acts for the one who waits for Him."

And in I Corinthians it says the same thing,

"Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him."

God knows everything happening in our world and has given us His Spirit so we can know the things He has freely given us.

Now I'm living large because I know the God who is in control of all things!  Every so often I need to be reminded that my focus should not be on the things of this world, but on the One who created it.

Salvation Army announces successful completion of 2009 Christmas Tree of Lights Campaign

 

Campaign chairs Michael and Ginny Gully stood humbly at the podium as they announced the final total raised during the 2009 Christmas campaign.  The goal of $325,000 was exceeded having raised $346,179.  Even in hard economic times, the Quincy community gave generously from their hearts and their wallets.

 

This year the following was distributed to the needy in our area:

1,000 food baskets

1,462 kids received toys

1,793 nursing home visits

1,360 holiday meals

 

2,090 volunteers gave over 9,100 hours of service.  Thanks to the many people who helped make Christmas special for someone in need this year!
