Well, Scotty kept tapping on the newspaper, and finally Scotty’s dad had an idea: he tore out a page of the paper that had a map of the world. He tore it into puzzle pieces and he said, “As soon as you put this picture together, I’ll play with you.” Two minutes later his son shows up with the picture together. He said, “Scotty, how did you put this picture of the whole world together so fast?” He said, “Daddy, it was easy. There was a picture of a man on the other side. If you put the man together right, the world goes together just fine.” http://hutchcraft.com/a-life-that-matters/radio-program/every-dads-a-builder-8296 2009-09-18T14:13:26-05:00 In the course of our ministry on Indian reservations, we met a precious grandmother who told us a memorable story.

And while they were writing those notes, she said, “How are you going to remember to do this when I’m not around?” And he said, “The voice inside me that sounds like you.” http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2%20Timothy%204:2&version=NIV 2009-09-17T16:21:27-05:00 We usually think of a rebuke as a bad thing, but when it's used in love to put somebody on the correct path, it can be a blessing to them. http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke%205:1-3&version=NIV 2009-09-11T14:03:20-05:00 Jesus was seemingly swarmed by crowds of people wherever he went.
