It has been said the Patrick used the shamrock as a symbol to teach the doctrine of the Trinity to unbelievers. He would say "Is it one leaf or three?" "It is both one leaf and three," was their reply. He would teach that God is One God in Three Persons. "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost" (Matthew 28:19).

Wednesday’s Wisdom

1 Kings 8:61  Let your heart therefore be perfect with the LORD our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as at this day. How much do we give? Psalms 96:8-9 “Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name:” (Give Praise and worship) “bring an offering, and come into his courts.” (Give personal wealth) “O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth.” (Give practical witness) “ God wants our praise.  The world needs our practical witness of a holy life.  and we need to give our personal wealth.  God does not need our gifts-but we need to give.  The greatest gift we can give is to give our lives to His service. ~The above is from My Morning Manna, vol. 3, p. 226, by Ed Nelson

Did You Know?

I like to use the site Moments with the Book .   It is a great site for ordering tracts and for finding other wonderful information.  You may notice that one one of my pages (at the bottom) I have a tract that displays from their site.  Below I found some interesting facts from a back issue of Moments for You .  This is a free booklet, that can be read on line or you can order it by mail.  Did You Know That...? In just one second, the sun releases more energy than mankind has produced since the creation, including all the engines, power plants, and weapons ever constructed. The star Betelgeuse is one million times larger than our sun and gives off 120,000 times as much light energy. No two stars are alike. Each star bears a unique "fingerprint" or spectrum in its light pattern. If the stars could be divided up among the world's population of six billion, each person on earth would receive 11Ž2 trillion stars! The most familiar star is the North Star...
