better is little

Proverbs 15:16-17 Says, "Better is little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure and trouble therewith. Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith." I was reminded last night in our services of just how much we could do without in America. Bro. Tran's testimony about life in Vietnam and what his family has gone through to serve the Lord ought to make each of us ashamed about how little it takes to hinder us from serving God. For many people to go through a little financial trouble causes them to doubt God all together, yet we forget just how blessed we are even then compared to the majority of the world. There stood a man who's father was killed for preaching the gospel, and yet he is willing to plod the same path for the cause of Christ, we should all take note and remember the great treasure that we have in our walk with Jesus Christ.

Cassandra Schrader called today and told me that her cousin, Bobby Harjo, missionary to the Native American Indians in New Mexico is having a family crisis. His sons wife is having a baby and the cord is wrapped around the baby's throat. Pray for the family and the health of the baby if you will.
