Let your light shine


1.      Something happened at Wheeler High School that I wanted to make sure your readers knew about.  One of the mom's of a middle school athlete decided to commit to make it her mission to inspire their booster club from complete chaos to be well organized and highly motivated.
2.       
3.      This woman is an accountant for a local business, Farmburger.  She had her boys graduate from the athletic program but kept using her skills working 20 to 30 hours a week in season and almost as much out of season.
4.       
5.      She first volunteered to be the treasurer.  Then after two years of raising funds from every possible means to help poor athletes to get the equipment they needed she took on other jobs.  She has been the President of her booster club for the last two years.  Tonight at the football banquet they decided to recognize here for giving eight years of her life to this great work of being the coordinator of the middle school and high school football booster club for Wheeler High School. 
6.       
7.      I just thought you should know this.  Her name is Amy  Goggins.  Last year she was district volunteer of the year.  This year her club decided to gave an award each year for the Middle school and High school called the Amy Goggins Volunteer of the Year Award.
8.       
9.      The news covers bad stories when booster clubs are not doing what they should be doing in high schools in Georgia.  This would be  good story of good things happening in your coverage.



    Matthew 5.

13 “You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how [e]can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by men.
14 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a [f]hill cannot be hidden; 15 nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a [g]basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. 16 Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

6.10- The Power of Keeping a Confidence

-
 6.10- The Power of Keeping a Confidence I have a close friend who started listening to my confidential words 46 years ago. He guards his lips and preserves secrets and deep friendship. He does not speak rashly. He doesn't add shame to the bad things l have experienced. He reduces my burdens by his grace. He has good judgement regarding when to speak and when to remain silent. This gives him good long term friends and deep joy. Proverbs 13 3  A wise son  accepts his  father’s discipline, But a scoffer does not listen to rebuke. 2  From the fruit of a person’s mouth he  [ a ] enjoys good, But the  [ b ] desire of the treacherous is violence. 3  One who guards his mouth protects his life; One who opens wide his lips  [ c ] comes to ruin. 4  The soul of the  [ d ] lazy one craves and  gets  nothing, But the soul of the diligent is made  [ e ] prosperous. 5  A righteous person hates a f...

9.7- The long prayers about not electing anyone who doesn't support babies in the womb

 9.7- The long prayers about not electing anyone who doesn't support babies in the womb but unwilling to support and educate them for the next 18 years. Save your political action prayers for the meeting with your win/lose political party, whether you are democrat, republican or independependent as far as I'm concerned. Preach and sing the gospel but leave moral slobbery for some group that doesn't abuse children and cover it up and practices racism as a normal thing. The teacher said don't strain out gnats and swallow camels. Stop bad religion please. Matthew 25 31  “But when the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then He will sit on His glorious throne.   32  And all the nations will be gathered before Him; and He will separate them from one another, just as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats;   33  and He will put the sheep on His right, but the goats on the left. 34  “Then the King...

8.16- Confidence is a good thing. A well trained Olympic athlete is very confident.

 8.16- Confidence is a good thing. A well trained Olympic athlete is very confident. They train four years or longer for this moment on beam and fall down the beam or fall of the beam. They fly off and miss the uneven bars. Knowing they cannot win a medal. They have messed up and gone off the horse. What do they do? They get back on the horse. They finish their routine with a confident smile. They do not let that failure define them. Our life is not marked by a failure unless we allow it to be. The choice is ours. Bad day at work yesterday. Make today that much better. 2 Corinthians 4 7  But we have this treasure in  [ e ] earthen containers, so that the extraordinary  greatness  of the power will be of God and not from ourselves;   8  we are  afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not despairing;   9  persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed;   10  always carryi...
