You must also do good to prove that you have it. (James 2:17, TLB) God gives us a new day in which to show our loving allegiance. What can we do? Endow a college? Pay the church mortgage? Help equip a mission station? Maybe not, but we can give of ourselves. We can give of our heart, by affectionate kindness and sympa thetic understanding to those who need it today. We can give of our minds by encouraging good ideas in ourselves or by praising them in others. We can take a firm stand for ideals and principles that are wise and good, or for projects in our community that hurt none, but hold steadily in view of the good of many. Best of all, we can do good by giving of our spirits in praying for others, by speaking words of encouragement and inspiration. Thus we become God's earthly agents of faith, peace, and good because of what we do. This is loving God with heart and mind and soul and strength. ngth PRAYER: Our Father, help us so to love Thee that we shall want to serve Thee, by the gifts of our heart and mind and soul and strength. In Jesus' name. Amen. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY -- Our truest gift is something of ourselves. - copyright, THE UPPER ROOM HOW TO FIX MINOR TOILET PROBLEMS: When your toilet tank keeps running constantly after being flushed the trouble may be due to a faulty float inside the tank. To check, lift up the end of the metal or plastic float slightly to see if it shuts off the water and stops the "hissing" sound after the tank is full. If it does, then the float is probably leaking and water logged and is not shutting off the shut-off valve as it should. Unscrew the float and shake vigorously. If you hear water sloshing around inside, it is leaking and should be replaced. If it is not leaking, it may be that the rod needs to be bent downward slightly so that the float provides additional pressure on shut-off mechanism. When the rubber tank ball becomes old and worn, causing a constant leak of water into the bowl of toilet, it must be replaced. Unscrewing the wire rod from the top of the rubber ball permits the removal of rod and ball. Replace with ball recommended by your local supply store.
