i Be still, and know that I am God. (Psalm 46:10) It is a wonderful response to praise God. It is a basic ingredient in a Christian's faith. Sometimes, however, I am troubled with the way it is used or misused. I am sure we have all heard someone say "praise God" after some successful event. Usually it is heard in regard to receiving some sort of prosperity. Often, there appears to be a strong element of bragging involved ? "Look what God did for me." The psalmist also praised God. However, his praise had two specific elements to it. First, he praised God in all things, both in success and failure. Second, his praise was not one with overtones of magic in which a person prays to God to readjust the situation to suit his personal desires and then in turn thanks God. Instead, God is seen as having set the situation and we are called upon to change. We must open our eyes to the situation already in operation and merge with God's rhythm. Out of this Relationship comes a grateful praise. PRAYER: Dear Father, help me trust you because You first trusted v me. Then help me so live that my belief bears fruit that shows I am in rhvthm with Your will. Amen, -copyright -? THE UPPER ROOM -- Edwin S.

A scries of spectators, including extension service housing agent Willie Fcatherstonc, spoke up in support of the sewer project. "Nobody has mentioned the fact that if you do establish sewer lines, it will open the door to other services. People can then qualify for FmHA loans, for example", Featherstone said. , "You've got more black people than anybody else in Hoke County. We're not here to beg for anything, we pay taxes, too. I'm for the sewers", James Holmes said. Sarah Leach, county planning board member who originally voiced the sewer plan, told the group the project fit the program description of serving a densely populated, low income area. "I have no doubt that the people of Hoke County will meet their recreational needs some way. This is a one-time expenditure with no upkeep", she said, referring to the sewer plan. J.H.
