Your Bible And You Your Bible is so full of promises and examples about the love of God thai you can scarcely turn a page without finding more and more about His love for you What a wonderful book our loving Father has preserved these many years. What precious part of Your Bible should we read this week'' What example of love would best fill your soul'' Do you remember the story of the woman "caught" in adultery ' Your Bible tills the details in John chapter t. First I have to wonder .how these "good" men of the church knew where to find someone who was committing adultery Second I have to ask why these "upright" men didn't follow the Jewish laws and stone both the man and woman who were involved"' But at any rate some "good" men from the church came to the Master and asked Him what should be done to this woman What thoughts would be going through vour muid if you were in her shoes 'Site knew she was to be stoned1 She could feel His righteousness. His purity He would surely side with the church people But He didn't' The one tmng this poor woman did not know about God was that everything about God is based on love God's actions. His laws, everything - love based That is not the picture thai these people who professed to know God presented is it" They didn't goto her house in love They didn't drag her out of her bed in love, nor did they show the love ofGod in their voices as thev brought their accusations out in public No. she had no idea that God loved her until until Jesus spoke no words of condemnation How long it took we do not know. but whether it was seconds or minutes, it must have seemed like hours to her The last echo of her accusers died down and she wailed tor His pronouncement of her worthlessness Then she heard a gentle, canng voice ask where her accusers were As she looked for them she Kxind herself being wrapped, not onl\ In a cloth robe to cover her nakedness, but in the robe ot righteousness that God offers to each ol us. His tallen children Have you accepted His offer to cover your nakedness" Does Jesus have your permission to put His arm of love around your shoulders" Why nut let Jesus place His spotless record in the place of your sin-filled one'.' Let his death take away the power of past sins and His life the power of present sin in vour life ??nw? A PROGRESSIVE SAVINGS A LOAN. LTD. - ?

If we have teenagers ( ?t home oe caa remember when we I were teenagers. we know thai s everything seems to happen around I those yean that separate childhood t and adulthood One mabcaJ problem 4 that occur* during this period that i adds to the stresses of adolescence is acne. i Acne usually begins in the one to 1 two yean prior to pubetty. but it is at 1 its worse during adolescence It is 1 caused by a combination ofhormonal 1 stimulation of oil glands and an I overgrowth of certain germs on the 1 skin surface The pores get clogged ' with germs and oil and inflammation occurs, leading to acne bumps There are two types of acne bumps, open comedones 1 blackheads 1 and .losed comedones <whiteheads) Although unsightly, blackheads are easily managed and inflammation rarely occurs. The whitehead is the lesion responsible for the problems seen in acne The pore opening is 100 small to release its contents, the oil. proteins and germs form a small abscess tpus pocket) under the skin alter inflammation sets in The pus pockets can be big and may lead to scarring Stressful events and hormonal changes increase oil production on the face and man; cause tlare ups of acne Hie primary sites ol acne are (lie lace, chest, back and shoulders It *' 2. * ml without i problem. but inori levere forms of acne can scar Scant * ook like sharply puach-out pus. thfl leverity of the acaniag depends oo i ha iepth and iateosity of ihe^ inflammation The treatment of acne must be individualized to the patient For moat mild cases, topical Benzoyl Peroxide jr Re tin-A works well For moderate .rases, a combination of these two along with a topical antibiotic works best For severe cases, a physician may prescribe an antibiotic to be takea by mouth to help control the acne One thing worth noting is thai there are no medical studies that indicate that what you eat plays a significant role in acne For many .ears chocolates, sodas and sweets were thought to provoke acne This has not panned out. For those patients who attest to flare ups following certain, foods, these should be avoided until the treatment is complete We must remember as parents that acne can have a detrimental psychological effect on a teenager, lowering their self-esteem an^ confidence This should prompt us to make sure they are washing their face proper I \ andgetting medical attention it needed.

GULF VETS: If you are among the growing number of Gulf War veterans with symptoms that defy diagnosis, advise the VA about your health problems and demand a full medical examination. It's important to be on the record now that the in vestigation is actually moving for ward on whether military personnel in the area might have been affected by various incidents, including the burning oil fields and the fallout from both Iraqi and Allied exploding shells. Remember that the VA pre viously denied any problems, and before that, there was a long period of denial that any mustard-gas test ing took place, let alone that any of the subjects suffered any ill effects.
