Feel good

V*/ kindness in the
morning; for in thee do I
trust; cause me to know
the way wherein I should
walk; for I lift up my soul
unto thee.”
The instructor of an
early morning exercise
class advised her students
that it is better to feel
good all day than waiting
all day to feel good.
Although it was not her
intentions, the instructor
had offered food for spiri-

crawled out of bed and
started my day without
taking time for even a
brief devotion. I might
send thoughts upward
throughout the day but
that is just not the same
• as allowing special time
for fellowship with God.
A few minutes of good
physical exercise condi
tions the body and mind to
function in a more relaxed
and effective manner.
A few minutes devot
ed to Bible reading and
prayer each morning pre
pares the body, mind and
soul for unforseen chal
lenges. There are those of
us who occasionally have
dreary days. With little
effort we can reverse the
situation.
It is unnecessary to wait
all day to feel good physi
cally or spiritually when
it is so simple to feel good
all day.

From page jB
When this kind of nose-to
nose confrontation occurs
between generations, paren
tal leadership is on the line.
It is not time for quiet dis
cussions about the virtues of
obedience.
It is not the occasion for
bribes or bargaining or
promises. Nor is it wise to
wait until Dad comes home
from work to handle the
misbehavior.
You have drawn a line in
the dirt, and Chris has tossed
his cute little toe across it.
Who is going to win? Who
has the most courage? Who
is in charge here?
Those are the questions
he is asking, and it is vital
that you answer them for
him. If you equivocate at
that moment, he will precip
itate other battles designed
to ask them again and again.
That’s just the way a strong
willed child thinks. It is the
ultimate paradox of child
hood that youngsters want
to be led, but insist that
their parents earn the right
to lead them.
In summary, when misbe

The Blessing of
the Animals
The Feast of St. Francis
of Assisi will be celebrat
ed Tuesday at 6:30 p.m.
with the Blessing of the
Animals at St. Christopher’s
Episcopal Church in Perry.
This event is open to the
community and all pets are

According to Fr. Bill
Anderson, St. Francis
(1182-1226) is known for
his love of peace and his
kinship with all creatures.
Some eight centuries after
Francis lived in Italy, people
around the world strive to
follow the Gospel with the
joy he expressed.
The Blessing of the
Animals is a popular cus
tom in remembrance of St.
Francis’ love for all crea
tures and in thanksgiving to

From your interpretation
of these two attitudes you

QUESTION: I really
believe in giving children
the freedom to do wrong
as long as there isn’t any
danger involved.
For example, I let my
kids curse and use swear
words and don’t see
any harm in it. Do you
agree?
DR. DOBSON: No. I would
hope that parents wouldn’t
use that kind of language
and certainly don’t believe
they should permit their
kids to do so. It is disrespect
ful, crude and unnecessary
to talk like that.
