A Thought for the Week
“Be ye not hearers only but
doers of the word.”
“If you think your church the best,
Tell ’em so!
If you’d have it lead the rest,
Help it grow!
When there’s anything to do,
Let them always count on you,
You’ll feel good when it is through,
Don’t you know?”
“Make it strong.
Never flatter, never bluff,
Tell the truth, for that’s enough.
Bea booster, that’s the stuff,
lion’t just belong.”
