SMOKE ON THE WIND

August 27, 2010 Rev. Thomas “Dancing Feather” Ebbing

PRETTY EASY

Yes, it is pretty easy to have faith and a smile on our faces when there is a gentle breeze, the sun is shining, the birds are singing, and everything is in balance and harmony.

Well, how about when the storms of life come rushing in? We need some tools to cope. We are sure to be tested about our faith.

Some of us will pass the test and will help others along the way.

Let us pray and prepare for the exam.

Recess is over.

See you at graduation, so help me you will.

God bless us one

and all.
