A Brighter Day



There'll be a brighter day tomorrow
Just trust in God he'll share your sorrow.
Oh lay your cares at the Saviors feet
And when you do you'll feel complete.

He'll recreate your life once torn
You'll feel like you've just been reborn.
Give praise to Him and then you feel
His love and strength to help you deal.

With life's hard times though often sad
He'll give you joy and make you glad.
Look to the Lord, just trust in Him
He lifts us up when we feel grim.

So don't look back, just keep on praying
You'll feel His presence softly saying
"I'll fill your cup and take your pain
You've nothing to lose but all to gain."

"Come unto me I'll give you rest
And comfort you through troubling tests."
Though it may seem long, He'll make a way
To lead you on to a brighter day.

10-inches Deep!


A boy was sitting on a park bench with one hand resting on an open Bible. He was loudly exclaiming his praise to God.

"Hallelujah! Hallelujah! God is great!" he yelled without worrying whether anyone heard him or not.

Shortly after, along came a man who had recently completed some studies at a local university. Feeling himself very enlightened in the ways of truth and very eager to show this enlightenment, he asked the boy about the source of his joy.

"Hey" asked the boy in return with a bright laugh, "Don't you have any idea what God is able to do? I just read that God opened up the waves of the Red Sea and led the whole nation of Israel right through the middle."

The enlightened man laughed lightly, sat down next to the boy and began to try to open his eyes to the "realities" of the miracles of the Bible. "That can all be very easily explained. Modern scholarship has shown that the Red Sea in that area was only 10-inches deep at that time. It was no problem for the Israelites to wade across."

The boy was stumped. His eyes wandered from the man back to the Bible laying open in his lap. The man, content that he had enlightened a poor, naive young person to the finer points of scientific insight, turned to go. Scarcely had he taken two steps when the boy began to rejoice and praise louder than before. The man turned to ask the reason for this resumed jubilation.

"Wow!" exclaimed the boy happily, "God is greater than I thought! Not only did He lead the whole nation of Israel through the Red Sea, He topped it off by drowning the whole Egyptian army in 10-inches of water!"
