IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
Have enough gas for where you’re going. Mister?
Well, little matter. You can always get more at some
iervice station.
The same goes if unexpected guests drop in at home. You
can buy bread, meat, or eggs at a nearby store ... or you
can borrow from a neighbor.
But this is not possible when a serious emergency strikes.
You have to be prepared beforehand. You can’t buy strength
of spirit. Nor can you borrow it. It grows within you, little
at a time.
So be prepared when disappointment, discouragement,
trouble, or grief strike.
Through worship at Church fortify yourself with faith
and courage. Get acquainted with God’s love and wisdom.
Come what may, you’ll be ready for any emergency.
