Bandon Notebook: When The World Closes In, God Is Still The Answer
By Maggie B.
Hi, Neighbors! “The
Scripture says that in His
awn sweet way- if we but
wait - The Lord will take our
burdens and set crooked
matters straight.” This
little verse by Harry
Chester is so comforting
when things around us seem
to “close in” - when news on
radio, TV and in the
newspapers are filled with
acts of violence, decadence
and disaster - when physical
limitations prohibit us from
doing what we want to do -
when we are discouraged
and God seems far away -
and - when we forget our
blessings and tend to
become bitter or critical.
These few lines remind us
that God is STILL in control
- all we have to do is trust
Him and let Him take over.
As Mary Frances Butts puts
it:
“Build a little fence of
trust around today;
Fill each space with lov
ing work and therein
stay;
Look not through the
sheltering bars upon
tomorrow,
God will help thee bear
what comes of Joy
or Sorrow.”
Such a beautiful day! This
Lord’s Day was just right
for gathering together in
God’s House for a spiritual
refueling! Those assembled
at Bandon Chapel for
Sunday School were joyfully
welcomed by Supt. B. Kent
Rowley. He announced that

Theme Selected
National Dairy Month
“Milk’s The One” has
been selected as this year’s
June Dairy Month theme to.
Sylvia Johnson; “Benny”
Twine; our missionnaries
Nita Pride, David & Linda
Smith; and our beloved
pastor, Dr. W. J. B.
Livingston and his lovely
wife, Sarah.
“The Need to Make Right
Decisions”, I Sam. 10-
16;22,23; 16:1, was the topic
for our adults, taught by
Meredith Barden. Aim was
that adult Christians
evaluate whether they are
following God’s revealed
will or instead telling God
what they will do for Him.
“Happy Birthday” was
sung by all in honor of Sarah
Livingston as she placed her
contribution in our Birthday
Bank.
Dr. W. J. B. Livingston’s
inspirational morning
message was “We Can Turn
Tragedy Into Victory”,
Judges 16:18-22,23-31. He
told the story of Samson and
Delilah, how Samson was
born with a purpose, finally
fulfilling that purpose by
calling on God to renew his
strength once more so that
he could free the Hebrews
from the Philistines. God
gave him the strength, he
pulled the great pillars down
and with them the
Philistines and also himself.
Recently, we’ve had two
tragedies in this country -
the Three Mile Island in
cident and the crash of the
DC 10 in which 274 people
were killed. Can any good
come from such? Yes. The
Three Mile Island accident
forced us to look to all
help described the many
contributions of milk and
the . dairy industry to our
American way of life.
Milk and dairy products
provide a significant
amount of our daily need for
protein, calcium, and many
other essential vitamins and
minerals. And they provide
this nutrition at a cost which
has increased less than all
other major food groups.
In recent months, it has
been reported by the U. S.
Bureau of Labor Statistics
that everything measured
by its Consumer Price Index
has advaheed at least 100
per cent since 1967, in
cluding the price of food.
However, milk and dairy
products have increased
only 85.2 per cent since 1967.
It is interesting to com
pare this 85.2 per cent in
crease with the 134 per cent
increase of cola drinks since
1967; or the 167 per cent
increase of sugar and other
sweets.
The dairy industry is a
major employer and tax
payer in many communities
and cities throughout North
Carolina and the nation, and
continues to build and ex
pand to keep pace with
consumer demand for its
products.
June Dairy Month is a
natural time to pause and
reflect on the significant
contributions to our health
and economy made by the
dairy farm families of our
state and nation. And June
is a natural time to say
“thanks” for providing our
daily supply of nature’s
most nearly perfect food -
milk.

nuclear installations in a
very realistic way and
search for improvements.
The DC 10’s have been
grounded and may be the
way which God used to save
thousands and thousands of
people and increase all air
safety. All of us are bom
with a purpose. Nobody can
take anyone else’s place. If
we stray from the goal God
has for us, if we repent
somehow God can make
something good out of our
sin. God can do the im
possible. Go to him in
prayer and He will make
your life victorious.
