“Then Comes Marriage?”
Good morning (or afternoon, evening or night, depending on when you read this)! This morning I was reminded of a little playground rhyme that children used to recite as a torture method, but that was wholesomely indicative of a healthy and proper view of the right way to do family. Any time a boy or girl would say or do anything that might (or might not) hint that he or she “liked” a member of the opposite sex, the children would chant something like “John and Jane, sitting in a tree…,” you know how it goes, “First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes John with a baby carriage.” Maybe there are variations out there, but you get the idea.
My question for all of you readers today, well actually a couple of questions, are: (1) Do children still torture one another with this rhyme today? (I hope so) and (2) In your experience, do the majority of people still agree with the basic proposition of that rhyme–do they agree (even if many do not practice it) that marriage ought to come before a baby carriage?

Productivity
Productivity! Yes indeed. I want to be productive. I want to be a profitable servant of Christ. The alternative is no alternative for me (Matt 25:30)! Last week was a great week at Highland. This week is beginning well. Though I love to listen to bro. Cornwell’s preaching, the privilege of being able to fill in for him yesterday was great. I taught the teen class for Wilber (our Youth Minister) yesterday, which I’ll say something about again in a moment. Work on the first issue of REACH for 2008 is complete as of today, and I’m happily listening as it rolls of the press (so to speak) (and I’m also trying to figure out how to get the pdf on the website). I’m working on the adult bible classes lineup for Spring and beyond, and I plan on making a couple of ministry visits this afternoon. Oh, and our Summer Series plans are now complete. The feeling of productivity is so fulfilling to me! I hope it is for you also, especially so far as your ministry is concerned. Read more
Wilber’s Thoughts
Well, I survived. I survived my wisdom teeth surgery of 2008, and I am now on the back end of the recovery process. My experience has not been a negative one at all. I had heard horror stories from some people about their nightmarish experiences. I heard, “You do not want dry sockets” or” You will be down for at least a week”. Two days is all I was down. I want to thank all those who prayed for me, sent me encouraging texts, called, and asked how I was doing. Just knowing people care can make recovery seem to go better and faster. I definitely want to thank Dr. Spivey, AMAZING job!!!! So, If you know someone who is sick, injured, or not feeling their best, let’s do what we can to let them know you care. It could make the difference between someone having a good or bad day!!!!
PS
To those who have had their wisdom teeth removed,
Do you ever stop trying to feel with your tongue the “pits” in the back of your mouth?
