Nearly everyone is insurance
conscious. Insurance is sold to
cover almost every emergency
from birth to death.
Did you know that the oldest
insurance company in the world
has for thousands of years of-
fered insurance against con-
demnation? That is true. The
Bible tells us that as we forgive
others, so are we forgiven. This
is one of the laws of life. It can-
not be repealed.
Everyone has a chance to put
his policy against condemnation
into action, for no one goes
through this world without be-
ing hurt by someone else. But
it isn’t necessary for you to hold
an unforgiving spirit because of
these wrongdoings.
During the dry season, when
Africa’s weather is ideal, a tribe
of Christian natives observe
what they call “Forgiveness
Week.” Each man, woman and
child pledges to forgive any
wrong that has been done to
him or her. At the end of the
week, when all hearts are cleans-
ed from grudges, a festival of
rejoicing is held.
How happy and clean we feel
after we have forgiven one who
has wronged us! As the ugly
attitudes of bitterness, resentful-
ness and hatred are washed from
our hearts, we become more
sensitive to God’s love and His

memorable experiences. Work
has been shared, joys experienc-
ed often, and faith has increased
as disappointments and sorrows
came thru peace time or in war.
Happiness has been abundant and
present even in the midst of fi-
nancial loss, the solution to all
disappointing circumstances we
encountered was lessened as our
hearts in song were joined to-
gether. Only those who know the
Lord in a personal way can know
the extent of this joy.
Could it be that there are those
who often have heard your song
but have never heeded its mes-
sage? One has not really heard
unless he has responded in faith.
Only as one is involved in the
function of the “body of Christ”
can he be considered a part. If
we love the Lord as we should,
surely others will know.
May there be many other
stanzas to your song which will
be sung. May God’s richest bless-
ings be with each of you and
yours.
Sincerely meant,
Prayerfully Sent:
The Henrys.

I Scott Evans of Garland visited
Mr. and Mrs. Scott Wright and
Mrs. Lillie Hall over last week
end.
God’s presence has been keen-
ly felt in “our home community”
at Blanton Chapel these past
days. Joy in hearts has been ov-
erflowing as many who worship-
ped here in other days have re-
turned for more than one im-
portant occasion.
On Sunday, August 2, the
church received a Medallion from
the Texas State Historical Com-
mittee as one of the many land-
marks in the county proven wor-
thy of recognition. This program
recalled to our minds the efforts
and interest of its founders and
leaders and many returned for
the occasion.
On Monday night, August 17,
the church was filled with people
as some who once were in regu-
lar attendance here returned and
“familiar songs and voices” rang
from the walls once more. Pre-
sent on this occasion was one
couple, Mr. and Mrs. M. A. Car-
penter, leaders in singing for 50
years, whose efforts have been
continuous enriching the lives of
all who heard their message in
song. They have inconvenienced
themselves many times to bring
a message of comfort to sorrow-
ing hearts, this ministry has been
with purpose, it has been willing-
ly and prayerfully performed with
no thought of remuneration.
Therefore it is fitting that at this
important time in the life of this
communty the occasion of their
Fifieth Wedding Anniversary
came. To an observer who looked
on it would seem that with each
gift the guests was trying to say
“Thank you, you have meant
much to my life.”
As a part of the family, yet
not the imemdiate family, may
we share with you an open let-
ter to them.
Those visiting in the home of
Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Smith last
week were Mr. and Mrs. Van Cal-
very of Paris, Mr. and Mrs. A.
Q. Blankenship and family of
Oklahoma City.

family has planned for this occa-
sion. Decorations refreshments,
pictures, invitations, and getting
the house in order has been great
fun. This was a “Perfect Day”
for truely “it was a day the Lord
had made” and we rejoiced and
were glad in it. Its joys and ex-
citement was far beyond our ex-
pectation.
At the appointed time, friends
and neighbors came from near
and far. A majority of the towns
in a four county area were rep-
resented. Words of congratula-
tions and handshakes were mean-
ingful and joy seemed to fill the
air. These expressions from re-
joicing hearts caused us to see
life true values are definitely
not in material things. This deep
joy comes only to those who
through love and devotion to God
serve their fellowmen.
We do not question the reason
you today are the benefactors of
this “rare” joy. We know the mu-
sic and laughter we experienced
today was but an “echo” of your
continuous song of praise to God.
God’s message thru your efforts
has gone out to others, its mis-
sion accomplished, it has return-
ed to gladden the hearts of those
who gave it out freely to enrich
lives of others. Someone has true-
ly said:
That I have, I gave
That I had, I spent
That I kept, I lost.
May we of the family thank
you for sharing with us
not just today—but for being an
important part of many of life’s
forgive those who wrong us

INSURANCE AGAINST CONDEMNATION
even when they do not ask to
be forgiven.
After our hearts have been
cleansed by forgiveness, then
we should fill them with love
for the person forgiven. Forgive-
ness is positive action. It is not
enough merely to drop from our
minds thoughts of anger or con-
demnation. We must replai
negative emotion with a
tive, dynamic opposite.
Jesus once told of a man who
got rid of an unclean spirit.
When the homeless, wandering
spirit returned, he found the
house empty, swept and put in
order. So, he moved back in. He
even brought his companions
with him—seven other spirits
more evil than himself. '‘The
last state of that man,” said
Jesus, “is worse than the first.”
After you have forgiven some-
one, immediately replace your
anger with compassion. Replace
your resentment with sincere
goodwill. Replace your condem-
nation with your heartfelt bless-
ing.
As long as your heart is full
of good thoughts for the other
person, the spirit of unforgive-
ness will find no place for lodge-
ment, if it should try to return.
As you practice active, whole-
hearted forgiveness, you make
yourself receptive to the radiant,
goodness. Because forgiveness forgiving love of God. You put
benefits us so much, we should into effect your insurance policy
against condemnation.
