Scott & Mari Dyer—Oct.12 What unaccepted offering provoked Cain’s murder of Abel? It’s the Fall season again, and you know what that means… PUMPKIN FLAVORED EVERYTHING! Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee. Psalm 119:11 ed. Debbie Wright [email protected]/12/14 FUN FACTS Most people got married in June because they took their yearly bath in May, and they still smelled pretty good by June.. However, since they were starting to smell, brides carried a bouquet of flowers to hide the body odor. Hence the custom today of carrying a bouquet when getting married. Baths consisted of a big tub filled with hot water. The man of the house had the privilege of the nice clean water, then all the other sons and men, then the women and finally the children. Last of all the babies. By then the water was so dirty you could actually lose someone in it. Hence the saying, "Don't throw the baby out with the bath water!" There was nothing to stop things from falling into the house. This posed a real problem in the bedroom where bugs and other droppings could mess up your nice clean bed. Hence, a bed with big posts and a sheet hung over the top afforded some protection. That's how canopy beds came into existence. The next time you are washing your hands and complain because the water temperature isn't just how you like it, think about how things used to be. Because I Said So “For I am the Lord that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.” - Leviticus 11:45 Are you a parent? Then, you’ve probably told your children to do something and they asked why. And what did you say? “Because I said so.” I believe there are times when parents want their children to do things and they need to explain their rationale. It’s important to teach principles for living instead of mere commands and rules. But sometimes children are not able to understand, so sometimes we say that as the answer to simply communicate parental authority to a child. Leviticus is a book full of laws that no one understood logically. And yet did God stop to explain the law? No. He simply said, “I am the Lord your God.” He is above our need for explanations and deserving of our full obedience. To prevent potatoes budding, add an apple in the bag. A Strawberry and a Cucumber A strawberry and a cucumber grew up in the same garden patch. They were best buds growing up. As they grew older, they decided it was time to branch out, leave home, and see the world. So they hitched a ride on a nearby vegetable cart and took off. Their first stop was at a local farmer's market. Unfortunately, that's where the trouble started. A big row broke out and they got separated, one of them ending up in a jam and the other in a pickle. ~Everywhere is walking distance if you have the time. ~A flashlight is a case for holding dead batteries. ~What's another word for "thesaurus"? ~The word "gullible" isn't in the dictionary.
