Back to school again, has
everybody found their way
to their room and learned
their teachers name. What is
the fun thing you like about
the new school year?
The cotton and feed
looks good from the road
and the cotton is really tall
and seems to be fruited up
good. Now I’m wonddering
who will get the first bale
for 2013 and I’m wondering
where is the truck patches.
Yes Mr. Farmer things are
looking good.
The Galilee Church
family was blessed with the
word on Sunday as Pastor
Wiley spoke to us. His mes-
sage hit a few sore spots I
have so I’m trying to doctor
them, but have some time its
hard to make stepping stones
from stumbling blocks. Re-
member church schedule
change in September too,
so watch your bulletins and
listen to the annoucement so
you don’t miss any special
events.
As we check our sick list
seems everyone has gotten
better, but continue on the
shut-in list so let’s call, drop
by or send a card.
Our sympathy is extend-
ed to all breaved families.

Remember today is the
tomorrow you worried about
yesterday.
May your weekend be
blessed.
“Parent s Prayer”
I gave you life, But can-
not live it for you.
I can teach you things,
But I cannot make you learn
I can give you directions,
but I cannot always be there
to lead you.
I can allow you freedom,
but cannot account for it.
I can take you to church-
but I cannot make you be-
lieve.
I can buy you beautiful
clothes, but I cannot make
you lovely inside
I can offer you advice,
but I cannot accept it for you
I can give you love, but I
cannot force it upon you.
I can teach you to share,
but I cannot make you un-
selfish.
I can teach you respect,
but I can’t force you to show
honor.
I can advise you about
sex, but I cannot keep you
pure.
I can tell you the facts
of life, but I can’t build your
reputation.
I can tell you about
drinks, but I can’t say NO for
you.
I can warn you about
drugs, but I can’t prevent you
from using them.
I can tell you about lofty
goals, but I can’t achieve
them for you.
I can tell you about kind-
ness, but I can’t force you to
be gracious.
I can warn you about
sins, but I cannot make you
moral
I can love you as a child,
but I cannot place you in
God’s family.
I can pray for you, but I
cannot make, you walk with
God.
I can teach you about Je-
sus, but I cannot make himy-
our Savior.
I can teach you to OBEY,
but I cannot make Jesus your
Lord
I can tell you live to five,
but I cannot give you Eternal
Life.

Trying to obtain what only
God can give anyway:
In Genesis 27-28, we
see an Old Testament “Dys-
functional Family”. Isaac,
Rebekah, Jacob and Esau
were a family alright, but
it doesn’t appear that they
were a happy one. Sadly, we
begin to see the culmination
of years of unresolved fam-
ily issues that ends with Ja-
cob leaving home never to
see his mom again. As with
all families, there is plenty of
BLAME to go around.
* Isaac was not the spiri-
tual leader [he needed to be]
and thus didn’t recognize
God’s plan. He also loved
Esau over Jacob.* Rebekah
played favorites [loving Ja-
cob more] thus causing un-
necessary strife and division.
* Jacob deceitfully tricked
both Isaac & Esau to obtain
his blessing and birthright.*
Esau sought his own plea-
sure and agenda above God’s
and thus despised his birth-
right.
I describe Isaac, Re-
bekah, Jacob & Esau as a
“dysfunctional family”. Ul-
timately, Rebekah and Ja-
cob’s plotting and planning
can be described in the fol-
lowing sentence. Trying to
obtain what only God can
give. How many times do we
spend the precious moments
of life and destroy dear re-
lationships trying to obtain
what only God can give?
Our family unit should
be guarded above all else.
Though Isaac and Rebekah
had a “dysfunctional fam-
ily”, it is amazing to see that
this is the family Jesus came
from. If you do not have a
church home, you are cer-
tainly invited to worship with
me and my family at FBC
Ralls, TX.
