Do You Pray with Your Umbrella Open?
by Bonnie Barker
Matthew 7:7 Ask, and it shall be given you;
seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened
unto you.
I heard my Pastor tell a story about a drought a
few months ago. It really made me search myself to see
if I was praying like I should be. The story was told like
this….
Many, many years ago in a small rural village a
huge drought came. It was very bad. Without the rain
farmers had no crops, animals were dying and the people
were just about at deaths door themselves. They were
scared and didn’t know what to do. One man suggested
that they spread the word to all the neighboring farms
to gather and pray that the good Lord above would
send rain. He said surely if so many would gather to
pray, the Lord would listen. It took several days to get
the message out, but finally people started to show up
to pray. About 12 men were already there telling each
other stories about how the drought had affected them
when one looked up and started laughing. Then one after
another the other men looked up too. All of them smiled
or laughed at what they saw. A few yards down the road
the men saw another man making his way to pray. He
looked rugged and tired just like the other men, but
there was something different about him. In his hand
he was carrying an umbrella. The men thought that was
hilarious since they hadn’t seen rain in months. By the
time the man carrying the umbrella reached the others
they were all just staring at him with this dumbfounded
look on their faces. Finally one spoke up and asked
him, “Why in the world would you carry an umbrella?”
The one man looked at him and said simply, “Are we
not meeting to pray for rain?”
So now the question I have for you is: Do you
pray with your umbrella open? Too often we pray
for God to help us, but we don’t believe that He will
actually help while we are praying. How are we to
expect the Lord to help if we don’t really believe while
we pray? Are you one of the twelve men who met to
pray for rain, but didn’t come prepared? Or are you the
one lonely man that believed that his Lord would give
him what he asked for so he came prepared with his
umbrella?
Every time I start to pray I remember this story
and I open my umbrella. The Lord has answered my

prayers when they are my needs and not just my desires.
I truly believe that the way you pray makes a difference
and I urge you to pray with your umbrella’s open!!!
What is an AMERICAN?
by Tom Henry
We are from all nations under
the sun. We have the blood of Europe,
Asia, Africa, North and South America
flowing in our veins. We are a proud
people, we are ONE NATION, under GOD, indivisble
with Liberty and Justice for all. We are not afraid to
fight for what we believe. This has been proven many
times, at Gettysburg, Pearl Harbor, Vietnam and many
other places. We come from all walks of life; country
and city, we are AMERICANS.
Now, our way of life is being threatened, by
enemies foreign and domestic. Truth, Justice and the
American way is being invaded by beliefs we do not
agree with. We don't all look alike, we don't all act
alike, but, we are all AMERICANS. Our people, some
are poor, some are rich and many in between, but we
are ONE NATION! One Nation that believes in GOD,
one NATION that will be strong again. We are citizens
of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA!
God bless America.
Air Raid
by Dr. Barbara Marrani Weber
The story was given to me by my Aunt Maria:
During World War II, she was the director and
only caretaker of a children’s home in a small town in
Germany. Her kindergarten program had often been
disrupted by sirens, announcing incoming warplanes.
When this happened Aunt Maria had to leave the house
immediately and take the children to a cellar across the
street which served as a bunker. Each child was very
well trained for these emergency situations.
Every morning my Aunt started her day with
prayer and asked the Lord for the children’s divine
protection. But then came a day, they would never
forget. When the group heard the wailing of the sirens,
they had to run again to their safety shelter. But this
time everything was different. As soon as they had
arrived at their corner in the shelter, a bomb hit the
building. Everything was shaking in a terrible noise.
It felt like they were losing ground. The brick walls
on each side of the stairway started to cave in and part
of the ceiling broke down. The building around them

Volume 6 Issue 9
began to collapse- it was a very frightening experience.
Shock and confusion followed. But my Aunt kept her
peace; she always knew what to do in every situation. I
admired her for that.
Aunt Maria and the children cried out to God
for help and thanked him for their protection. She had
taught them numerous times about prayer when she
read the biblical stories to them. The miracle happened.
The moment they started praying, the Lord’s angels
came in and the group witnessed something incredible.
The angelic helpers prevented the cellar from a total
collapse; they also prevented the entrance from being
blocked by placing an invisible blanket underneath the
ceiling which was also covering the walls- no more
debris fell down. Everybody was standing there in
‘awe’. Then finally, the sirens sounded “all clear” and
they all could safely escape and go back to the day-care
center which had not been touched by the bomb. None
of the children was hurt. They all were praising the
Lord. Their joy was unspeakable.
A BLESSING FROM THE LORD!
by Ruth Berkes
Jeremiah 17:7-8 and Isaiah 55:12 KJV
"Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord and has
made the Lord his hope and confidence.
HE IS LIKE A TREE
planted along a river-bank, with its roots reaching
deep into the waterA TREE
not bothered by the heat nor worried by long months
of drought.
Its leaves stay green, and it goes right on producing
all its luscious fruit."
"...go out in joy and be led forth in peace;
the mountains and the hills will burst into song before you,
ALL THE TREES OF THE FIELD
will clap their hands!"
So go forth......BE RIGHTEOUS TREES,
FREELY BLOWING IN THE BREEZE OF THE SPIRIT,
and serving Him.
Hallelujah!!!

The Acorn and the Leaf
by Stacey Evans
(from Unending Promises devotional)
It was a harder day than most. An unimaginable
and seemingly impossible task, coupled with high
emotions and a few poor decisions, landed me in a
“shoulda, woulda, coulda” situation.”
What was done was done. There was nothing
more that I could do but to spend quiet time with God
and give the situation to Him. In a distant parking spot
of a local park, I closed my eyes and began to pray,
“God, I give you this situation and I give you the glory
and the honor to take it and make it Yours. Work out
Your plan, dear Lord. I pray in Jesus’ name that you
break the hold of my enemies and renew my strength
and be my shield.”
The prayer felt right and the words flowed
from my heart with ease; however, my mind didn’t
really wrap around the concept. As I sat there in quiet
desperation, I turned to Psalms 1 and read the passage
aloud: Blessed is the man who does not walk in the
counsel of the wicked….
Again, the words flowed from my mouth with
great conviction. Still, there was a hollow feeling
within my heart longing for divine intervention. I knew
that my heart was in the right place. I knew I had done
everything I could; however, I longed for the comfort
that only God could give me. I wanted a “word” from
Him, personally.
At that moment, God said to me “let’s take a
walk.” I hesitated at first but realized He was pushing
me to a place where He could speak and I would listen.
I locked the car after I stepped onto the pavement and
began walking along the path.
The park wasn’t at all what you would imagine as
a typical park. It was more of a roadside refuge nestled
among several subdivisions. Nothing was typical about
this walk – I had on my work outfit along with my 2 ½
inch heel boots but I pressed on to find the answer I so
desperately needed.
The water flowing from the stream caught my
eye. I debated whether to stop and settle for this as my
solace as I was unsure of my time and God’s calling.
But He urged me to continue on. I felt Him saying,
“there’s something greater.”
I was amazed that within just a short distance
into the woods, the sounds of the passing cars and the
6
busyness of the day were drowned out by the leaves
crunching beneath my feet, squirrels foraging, and the
trees blowing in the wind. It was in that moment that
God said to me, “Take a look around. THIS is mine…
this is what I created. All of this came about through
the works of my hands. Unimaginable and impossible
tasks are what I am all about. I created the heavens and
the earth and I can take care of whatever you will give
to me.”
I reached down and picked up an acorn and God
said to me, “Inside this tiny shell is a tree. In this small
seedling, therein lies the power to grow a strong and
mighty tree – one with roots that go deep into the ground
and provide shelter to animals and shade to you.” I
finally “got it.” It wasn’t about me trying to live in the
“shoulda, woulda, coulda.” It was about truly giving
God the ability to take hold of the situation and use it to
His glory.
Yes, I can learn from the situation and grow, but
God is the only one that can make it into what it really
needs to be. He is the only one that can take a situation;
whether present or past, and work it out.
I picked up the acorn and the leaf as a reminder
but God told me I wasn’t done. He told me to open up
Psalm 1 and read it again.
Blessed is the man who does not walk in the
counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or
sit in the seat of mockers. But his delight is in the law of
the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night.
He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which
yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers. Not so the wicked! They
are like chaff that the wind blows away. Therefore the
wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in
the assembly of the righteous. For the LORD watches
over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked
will perish.
Friends, you will have times when you try your
best to do whatever it is that is put before you. The
devil; however, always attacks what he does not like. If
he sees that you are doing God’s will and abiding with
God, he will try and trip you up. God brought home
Psalm 1 to me by taking me for a walk and getting me
into the world HE created to see exactly what those
verses meant. Keep doing right by God. You are like
the acorn that has the tree within. When you continue
to do His work and look to Him for guidance, you are
planted like a tree with strong roots by a stream of water

that never runs dry. And, though he might try, the ways
of the devil will be like the leaves that fall off the tree
and crunch beneath our feet in God’s sight. Stay strong
and know that God is your strength. Call upon Him and
He will watch over you.
Power of the Cross
by Samuel C. Brown, Evangelist
For I determined not to know any thing among
you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. I Corinthians
2:2
What I want to write about is how do we reach
the lost for Christ? The key is the Cross of Christ.
There is Power in the preaching of the Cross.
For the preaching of the cross is to them that
perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the
power of God. I Corinthians 1:18
The Book of Acts tells of the Day of Pentecost, when
Peter preached to the multitude. And scripture says
they were pricked at there hearts. They asked " what
must we do?"
Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be
baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ
for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of
the Holy Ghost. Acts 2:38
It goes on to say that they gladly received the word, and
3,000 souls were added to the church.
Then they that gladly received his word were
baptized: and the same day there were added unto
them about three thousand souls. And they continued
stedfastly in the apostles 'doctrine and fellowship, and
in breaking of bread, and in prayers. Acts 2:41-42
How was this accomplished? Through the
power of the gospel- the message of the cross.
There is Peace in the Preaching of the Cross.
And how shall they preach, except they be sent?
as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that
preach the gospel of peace.
Romans 10: 15
I remember before I got saved, and God began working
on me . I remember, for awhile I had trouble sleeping.
I lived across from the train tracks, and the train would

come through at night. I would hear the train whistle
and wake up thinking the church had been raptured, and
I had been left.
After I got saved in March of 2004, I slept
peacefully for the first time in months. This is because
I found peace in Christ. There is peace in the cross of
Christ.
There is Provision in the Preaching of the
Cross.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his
only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him
should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16
When you accept Christ, you receive eternal
life. Jesus is referred to in Scripture as Living Water, and
The Bread of Life. Bread and water are food provision
that a person needs to sustain life. Jesus gives spiritual
life- life everlasting.
We are to go and proclaim the gospel- the
good news, and the key to preaching the gospel is the
preaching of the cross!
Children
by Carolyn Kyzer
Children bring happiness into this world
They teach us as they learn a boy or girl
They see small things we sometimes miss
They want to explore all alone they insist
They love touching things if big or small
Helps them to remember feelings of all
The wonders of a child completes each day
Dreamland mends their minds along the way
To love a child pleases Jesus beyond compare
Tomorrow may be our last day that is unaware
Enjoy your child and listen to what they say
Life will be much happier to have joy today
Money and fame does not bring what we need
Love from your child reflects how we all lead
In God’s Heaven land we hear the joy bells ring
A home given to a child beckons angels to sing

Jack’s Corner
by Jack Hodge
A Treasure Gary McVay
I met Gary McVay several
years ago and was extremely impressed when I listen
to him sing “The Lighthouse”.
I have shared the stage with Gary for benefit
singings. When I finished writing the song “The Brave
American Soldier” I thought of Gary’s studio for the
recording.
I spent many evenings enjoying Gary and
the others at the Smoky Mountain Jubilee theatre in
Pigeon Forge Tn.
I feel God puts people
together for a reason. You never
know when you meet someone
what is in store for the future. For
me the great Gospel music I have
enjoyed Gary sing and playing
him on my radio show.
Below you will read a few
words from Gary.
My name is Gary McVay,
the owner of Gloryland Recording
Studio. When I started the studio,
I dedicated the building and
equipment to the Lord Jesus
Christ, and promised Him to use
it strictly for his glory. I worked for 20 yrs. on stage
at the Smoky Mtn. Jubilee where I played steel guitar
and sang lead and baritone in the Jubilee Quartet. I
decided to step down from the stage to go "full time"
in the studio, and plus to sing in churches when I get
the opportunity.
Gloryland is located in beautiful Pigeon Forge,
Tn., close to the Smoky Mountains. I have always kept
my prices very reasonable for it has been my goal to
help especially the smaller groups, but at the same
time offer a radio-ready professional recording! I have
state-of-the art equipment (see Services) and use some
of the best musicians you'll find anywhere. I'm very
proud of the sound that I get, and will help in every
way possible to produce a great project.
I would love to come to your church and sing. I
8
do a mixture of Southern Gospel, Country Gospel, Old
Hymns and some of the newer music that you hear on
radio today.
I am also equipped to go out and do "live"
recordings at churches or for concerts. I can record
solo artists, groups, or choirs.
I hope you will consider recording your next
project at Gloryland!
God Bless,
Gary McVay

Linda’s Thoughts
by Linda Hodge
While
reading
my
daily
devotional this morning I was inspired
to write my article this month. There are
often things that I read, see or somehow
come into contact with that makes me stop and reflect
on things around me. Today was one of those days. If
we all take a moment each day to look around us we
can see many things which should make us proud of
who we are and of what God has given us. I am not
talking about monetary things. I am speaking of all
Gods beauty in this world. The birds, flowers, colors,
etc.. Take a minute and reflect on these things. Think of
all the beautiful colors of birds we have. The beautiful
and fragrant flowers that we pass by each day. Look at
the stars in the sky at night how bright they are. Look
at the clouds in the sky and ponder for awhile. Did you
lay on your back in the grass as a child and look at
the clouds and make out pictures in them? Think of the
ocean and how breathtaking the waves are as they hit
the shore and how peaceful the young kids are building
their sand castles in the sand. Think of the mountains
and all their beauty. God has given us so much and we
take it all for granted. We pollute the world around us
without even a thought of what we are destroying.
Now think of this. God gave us life. He breathed
breath into us and called us His children. Have you ever
stopped to wonder if God is sorry He created us? We
use His name in vain. We destroy His creations. We
take for granted everything He has given us. I know a
lot of people out there do not believe in God but think of
this. What if you are wrong and He is the great creator?
Where will you be when He comes back? Will He look
at you and shake His head or will He welcome you
into heaven? I know a lot of you are asking yourselves
who am I to ask you this question. Your right. I am
not perfect. I make mistakes and I let God down. Just
because you call yourself a Christian does not make
you perfect. You are still going to fall short of what God
expects of you but what is important is that you make
the effort to serve Him.
I ask you only one thing. Take just one moment
and reflect on what God has given you. Think of your
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only,
deceiving your own selves.
James 1:22 (King James Version)
10
mom, dad, husband, wife and children. Maybe you can
recall a time when God was there for you even without
your asking Him for help. Maybe you can remember a
time when you didn’t believe there was a God. Maybe
you still feel this way. I only ask you one thing. Look
around you at all you have. Sure, some of us have more
than others in material things but I am asking you to
count YOUR blessings, not others. I am sure each of
you have many blessings if you just stop and think about
it. Maybe you are not as rich as your neighbor, maybe
your health is not very good. Maybe you have asked
God for something that hasn’t materialized. Think of it
this way. God knows what tomorrow holds. He knows
what is going to happen each and every moment of each
day. He knows what you need in your life and what you
cannot handle. Sometimes things happen to us that is
very hard to realize why but everything that happens
to us in our lives each day has a reason. Pray that God
will show you that reason and work with Him to make
the changes necessary so He can reward you for your
continued love and belief in Him.
The next time you look at a sunset, a raindrop or
a seashell take a minute to thank God for this creation
and ask Him to come into your heart and help you to be
a better person. I am not saying He will make you rich
or give you everything you desire but I will promise He
will help you through your hard times and be there for
you to listen when you talk to Him. He loves you and
wants you to be happy. He will wrap His arms around
you and take you down the path He chooses for you if
you trust Him.
Talk to Him each day and see where He takes
you.
Let our Church pray for you!

Presence
by Jack Hodge
The morning mist fills the air.
The presence of God is everywhere.
He fills my life with His loving way.
Filling my needs, He is here to stay.
I accept the work He has given me.
Trying to help set all mankind free.
With the words between the pages
I write of His love through the ages.
Beautiful love and grace fill this place.
As my King puts a smile on my face.
Knowing one day I’ll be by His side.
On the wing of a Dove I will fly.
This poem is graciously given to me.
I’ll pass it on my friend to thee.
As you feel the love and grace inside.
Your life will flow as the graceful tide.
WAGGING TONGUES
(Proverbs 26:17-28)
by Dorothy Dale
Gossip is a fuel
That feeds destructive fires. The tongue can do more
damage Than any funeral pyre.
A tale that's passed among you
Destroys a person's life,
Or tears apart a church group
By causing pain and strife.
Don't feed those firey embers
About a friend or foe.
Ask God to help you quench them-­
Let them no farther go.
Ignore those juicy secrets-­They're better left
unknown. Someday that open closet May be your
very own.
And all that dirty linen That you have hid so well
May become the gossip For someone else to tell.
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only,
deceiving your own selves.
James 1:22 (King James Version)

Heaven’s choir in Jesus Presence! Choose
Heaven or Hell NOW!
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Romans 3:23
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ
our Lord. Romans 6:23
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet
sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord
Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath
raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with
the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with
the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the
scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not
be ashamed. Romans 10: 9-11
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:13
Now pray this prayer below:
Jesus, forgive me of my sins and come into my heart. Jesus,
I know you have been raised from the dead. Jesus, I confess
with my mouth and believe in my heart that you are Lord and
Savior. I ask you to save me in the name of Jesus Christ!
After you pray call your minister, or if you
don’t have one, call:

¡Coro celestial en la presencia de Jesús!
¡Escoja Cielo o Infierno AHORA!
Por cuanto todos pecaron, y están destituidos de la gloria de Dios, Romanos
3:23. Porque la paga del pecado es muerte, mas la dádiva de Dios es vida eterna
en Cristo Jesús Señor nuestro. Romanos 6:23 Mas Dios muestra su amor
para con nosotros, en que siendo aún pecadores, Cristo murió por
nosotros. Romanos 5:8. Que si confesares con tu boca que
Jesús es el Señor, y creyeres en tu corazón que Dios
le levantó de los muertos, serás salvo. Porque con
el corazón se cree para justicia, pero con la boca
se confiesa para salvación. Pues la Escritura dice:
Todo aquel que en él creyere, no será avergonzado.
Romanos 10:9-11. Porque todo aquel que invocare el nombre del Señor, será
salvo. Romanos 10:13.
Ahora repita la siguiente oración:
Jesús, perdona mis pecados y entra en mi corazón. Jesús, sé
que haz resucitado de entre los muertos. Jesús, confieso con
mi boca y creo en mi corazón que tú eres Señor y Salvador. ¡Te
pido que me salves en el nombre de Jesucristo¡ Amén

5.Put the dough in a container that has been lightly
oiled or greased and cover.

Marie, you have always been there for us and
there are no words to express our appreciation.
We are so proud of the writers of One Voice
because we have many people to stop us in Krogers
and in Church and other places to say they look
forward to reading the inspirational messages and
Jack's recipes and of course my poems and the stories
of miracles that are true that happens in our lives.
We deliver to Carvers Apple farm and they
take One Voice to the nursing homes and hospitals for
us.
This is a little of the work I am blessed to
have had thru the years; I received my diploma in
2004 from Institute of Children's Literature as a
writer for teenagers and children stories. I received
"Chosen Poet Awards" 2001, 2002, 2003 from The
International Library of Poetry. Newport News
published my story of the girl run down and killed
riding her bike on the highway near our home. She
was from Vermont and tour guide on Pigeon River in
Hartford,TN, eight miles away.
My poems are published in Hometown
Memories "Moonshine And Blind Mules" edition
in North Carolina and in "Dreams And Curiosities"
coffey table edition of International Library of
Poetry. Poems are published in The national Library
of Poetry and Poetry.com. Stories and poems are
published in Church Bulletins in TN. and Publish
American Books and South Carolina Newsletters. I
wrote and sent many Christian poems and stories to
Michigan Prisoners requested by a Christan friend in
Ministry there.
I sent Christian stories and poems to Russia by
exchange students my husband worked with at Nascar
Speed Park in Sevierville, TN. I have one book of
poetry published "Hear The Voice of God" and one
book on Christian History of Sherman's distruction in
lower South Carolina "The Brave Boys." There are
more publications.
Pray I didn't list too much. At my age I have
done years of writing.
God Bless,
Carolyn Kyzer
