When you have to sneeze do you hold it in? A man in Dundee Scotland tore a hole in his windpipe by pinching his nose and keeping his mouth shut during a sneezing episode. Such a result is a rare occurrence, but it can happen. Did you know the Bible says there are times that it is wise to hold back? This has no reference to sneezing but rather responding. In the book of Proverbs it reads, “A soft answer turns away wrath, But a harsh word stirs up anger.” Unfortunately we have a lot of opportunities to apply this wisdom. The next time you feel like responding with something harsh, hold it back and instead give a soft answer and change the dynamic of the conversation.

There was something that made the news about a 36 year old alligator at a zoo in Omaha, Nebraska. The alligator has translucent white skin which is very unique but what made the news was what the alligator had been feeding on. Veterinarians identified foreign objects in the alligator that turned out to be coins. The alligator had eaten 70 coins that it had found in the lake. Did you know the Bible instructs us to feed on something that is unique and is absolutely essential for spiritual life. Jesus said in Matthew 4:4 “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.”

Have you ever seen an advertisement promoting the possibility of having one’s criminal record removed? Imagine not being able to travel because of something that comes up from your past? The Bible tells us of a way we can have our sins before God removed. It tells us of a way we can have a clean record. This is made possible by a person being sorry for their sin and trusting in what Jesus did on the cross as a payment for their sin. Causing a person from then on to see sin differently and God differently and live differently. This clearance is spoken of in Psalm 103:12 which reads, “As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us.”

A saying that is often quoted this time of year depending on the weather in reference to March is, “In like a lion and out like a lamb”. It is a saying that has stood the test of time. One of the earliest citations is from a book containing a number of sayings written in 1732 but only the insight regarding March has held up over time. Did you know there is a saying in the Bible about a lamb that has not only held up over time but is just as relevant today as it was nearly 2000 years ago. It is spoken by John the Baptist in reference to Jesus Christ and what He would accomplish. It reads, “Behold, The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

Last month an evacuation alarm was sent and read by nearly 10 million people in LA county who were already on edge from surrounding wildfires. This obviously created a great deal of panic, but it was sent in error and turned out to be a software glitch. Did you know there is a warning presented in the Bible that has been read literally millions of times but in this case, there is no mistake? In the book of Romans it reads, “for the wages of sin is death”. Death meaning future separation from God. That is the warning but thankfully that same verse presents a sure way of escape, “but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Recently Jasdeep Singh from Windsor Ontario completed a rare feet. He had a goal to run a marathon in each of the seven continents. The last marathon he ran was in Antarctica which completed his goal. He highly values running and has greatly benefited from taking part in it. Did you know the Bible pictures running to teach a valuable lesson. In the book of Philippians it reads, “Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”

Last month William A. Connelly, a 100 year old retired Army Cornel was honored at Walt Disney Magic Kingdom in Orlando Florida. Connelly stood proud and tall as he saluted the flag. He looked surprisingly youthful for his age and was later asked his secret and his response to his long life was to “having happy people around you.” This is great insight, but it has limitations. Did you know the Bible makes it known there is a way to live with God forever. John 3:16 reads, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

The production the Antique Road show has been aired for many years and is currently on PBS Monday evenings. Something that determines the worth of a particular item is whether or not that item is a replica of a famous artists work or the work of the original artist. The road show has professionals to determine the real deal. Did you know the Bible has a way to determine the real deal with it comes to those whom say they are followers of Jesus Christ? In the book of James it reads, “But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.”

Recently, a seven year old boy in Zimbabwe went missing for a period of five days. To make matters worse, and that much more terrifying, the place he went missing was a national park that was highly populated with lions. An extensive rescue mission was underway including park rangers, police, and the local community and thankfully the boy was found and reunited with his family. Did you know there is a rescue shared about in the Bible that is absolutely amazing and is successful for all who take part? John 3:16 reads, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”

The raging fires across the Los Angeles area last month were devastating. The amount of loss and devastation is still being assessed. These fires spread at a rate of five football fields a minute at one point. The winds fueled the fire creating a worst case scenario and the fired burned beyond control. Did you know the Bible compares a person’s tongue with a small fire that can be extremely destructive and devastating? In the book of James it reads, “Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things. See how great a forest a little fire kindles!” It would be wise to be cautious of the potential damage you could create today with the wrong use of your tongue/.
