So deeply planted are the roots of human corruption, that even after we are born again, renewed, “washed, sanctified, justified,” and made living members of Christ, these roots remain alive in the bottom of our hearts, and, like the leprosy in the walls of the house, we never get rid of them until the earthly house of this tabernacle is dissolved. Sin, no doubt, in the believer’s heart, has no longer dominion. It is checked, controlled, mortified, and crucified by the expulsive power of the new principle of grace. The life of a believer is a life of victory, and not of failure. But the very struggles which go on within his bosom, the fight that he finds it needful to fight daily, the watchful jealousy which he is obliged to exercise over his inner man, the contest between the flesh and the spirit, the inward “groanings” which no one knows but he who has experienced them - all, all testify to the same great truth, all show the enormous power and vitality of sin. Mighty indeed must that foe be who even when crucified is still alive!

Had an enjoyable evening with my son. My grandson 

was playing tuba in the school spring concert.

Today's Chuckles

1. Baptism   

2. The Harmonica 

 

                   ———————————————

Baptism 

Little Margaret was all excited at the baptism of her 

baby brother. When the time came for the sacrament to 

take place, she stood on tip-toe, her alert face on a 

level with the baptismal font. 

As the priest raised the baby from being immersed into 

the waters of baptism, Margaret piped up, “Father, 

don’t forget to wash behind his ears.” 

- From JOKES PRIESTS CAN TELL 

                   ———————————————

The only way to get what you want is to risk being 

uncomfortable. The greater your gratitude for discomfort, 

the greater the opportunity. - Chris Cade 

                   ———————————————

The Harmonica 

"Thanks for the harmonica you gave me for Christmas," 

little Joshua said to his uncle the first time he saw 

him after the holidays. "It's the best present I ever 

got."



"That's great," said his uncle. "Do you know how to 

play it?"



"Oh, I don't play it," the little fellow said. "My mom 

gives me a dollar a day not to play it during the day 

and my dad gives me five dollars a week not to play 

it at night.
