They happened because people were expecting! them to happen! People in Bible times ex pected God to take a hand in their 'lives. They opened their minds to the immediate possi bility of divine intervention. They were in constant readi ness for miracles to happen. It is fascinating to read the four Gospels and the Acts and to fe»l the excitement and expect ancy among the people who lived in the days of Christ and his disciples! Today, as in biblical times, miracles can and do happen . . . but only after people snow an expectancy that they will hap pen. Here is a modern-day mira cle, wrought by God: A mother recently brought her son in our prayer line at one of the Crusades. She held a pair of brand-new shoes in one hand. In the other hand, she had her small son in tow. I said to her, “What are those new shoes for?” ministered the oath of office to James P. Ricks, Jr. the following officials: Mayor: David Q. Holton. Treasurer: James M. Bond. j Board of Councilmen: Coun-1 oilman First Ward, William C. 1 Bunch, Jg.; Councilman Second Ward, Carey A. Phillips; Coun cilman Third Ward, John A. Mitchener. Jr.; Councilman Fourth Ward, Luther C. Parks; Councilman at large, J. Edwin Bufflap; Councilman at large, George A. Byrum. Members of the Board of Pub lic Works: Jesse L. Harrell, Thomas C. Byrum, Jr., W. M. Wilkins, Ralph E. Parrish and j NOTICE! | Change Os Ownership ► I <s> I have bought Forehand’s Jewelers— | ; fixtures and equipment. Within a few f | days I will have a complete stock of watch- f ; es, diamonds and giftware suitable for all J ; occasions. I : J. J. Ross ! I •• | JEWELER ; . Phone 3525 f > WjmjLl She replied, “God is going to heal my sop’s clubfeet tonight. , After your prayer to God in my son’s behalf, my boy is going to need these new shoes. I went to the store today and bought them, because I know he’s go ing to need them.” Deeply touched, the audience prayed with me, and the Lord healed her child! It was a beau tiful sight to see mother and son later walking away, with the little boy “stepping high” in his new shoes. This miracle came about be cause the mother showed an expectancy of divine interven tion. Deep in her heart she knew her son’s clubfeet were going to be healed. She turned ner faith loose, and God per formed the miracle. Are you asking for a miracle in your life? You can receive that miracle, if you open your mind and heart, trust God im plicitly, believe that he is cap able of doing the impossible, and turn your faith loose. The Bible says: “Your faith shall make you whole.” Yes, a miracle can come to you, today, just as miracles came in the days of Christ’s earthly abode among his disciples. Mayor Holton requested the | jßev.yJ. Earl Richardson to lead | j the group in prayer, j Mayor Holton addressed the | group and called the Council to j order. Motion was made by George A. Byrum, seconded by John Mitch ener. Jr., and duly carried that an application presented by Mrs. Evelyn H. Privott to sell beer on premises at 306 N.
