6 The Sun, Wednesday, August 3, 2011 In the Bible Who's calling, please? By Pastor Joel Boyce Special to The Sun According to the dictionary, the word' god' is rather generic, and the meaning is stated as: "One who may be called upon." How wonderful, when choosing a word to identify himself to us, the word chosen is a word that invites us to call upon him. How equally wonderful, that in identifying himself to us, 'God' says, I am the reason for everything that is. "In the be- ginning, God created the heaven and the earth." Sea and dry land, plant, animal, bird and creeping things and yes, man in his own image, created male and female. In the first chapter of this collection of incredibly won- derful writings, we refer to as the scriptures, we are told: that there is one who brought ev- erything that is into being, and that one who created, wel- comes us to 'call upon him'. Just a few chapters away from the beginning of Genesis (Chapter four and verse 26) we are told, ..."then began men to call upon the name of the Lord." When I fred myself lacking in wisdom, in knowledge, or understanding, my starting place, most often is to call upon him who knows all things and who created all things. How wonderful to see him answer over and over again for these past 35 years I have been call- ing out to him. Call unto Him, and He will answer you and show you great and mighty things which you know not. Joel Boyce is the pastor at Sheridan First Baptist Church.

"Use it up, wear it out, make do or do without" I came across this saying on the Intemet. It reminds me of my grandparents. They came from the WWI, the Great De- pression, WWII eras, where NOTHING was wasted, as a result of having almost nothing. Grama kept twist ties from bread, foil or plastic wrap to reuse, tore up cardboard cartons or containers to save room in the trash and she would NEVER throw a paper towel away until it was nearly unrec- ognizable. Why am I bringing this up? Dixie Cups. One of the greatest inven- tions for parents!

Dixie Cups have made it clear to me that I need one of those "Reality" TV in- terventious. TV "Reality"...that's a scary thought. Yep, I'm guilty of hoarding. I am INCAPABLE of throw- ing a Dixie Cup away after only one use! I will reuse it all day. This causes my family some concern.
