Handy Chart Offers Encouragement

Need a little encouragement? I always admire a couple from our bible study who are able to offer scriptural references at the drop of a hat. After ten years of studying with them, the rest of the group know that Marlene and Lyman can be relied upon to offer pearls of wisdom from the bible on a moment's notice. They have been married a very long time, and frequently look lovingly at each other when a pertinent verse pops into their heads at the same time. Then, as though sharing an inside joke, they recite the verse in unison. I love that!

At his web site, Br. Michael Anthony shares a handy little scriptural chart with just the right reference for any situation. Here's an example:

You say: “I’m too tired”
God says: I will give you rest
(Matthew 11:28-30)
