The O'Neal Times "A Family Newsletter" _________________________ September 30, 2019 Scripture of the Day Psalms 15:3  "He does not slander with his tongue, He does nothing bad to his neighbor, And he does not defame his friends." Cross-references: Leviticus 19:16, Psalms 101:5, Proverbs 20:19 Proverbs 14:21, Romans 12:17 Exodus 23:1 Getting the Point: Everyone has a  moment in life where they wish they would have just kept their mouth shut.  Today's scripture of the day reminds us that the tongue can cause a lot of harm and that Jehovah God hates someone who lies and or even the person who listens to or spreads gossip.

The O'Neal Times Wyoming County West Virginia September 9, 2019 _________________________ Scripture of the Day: Isaiah 40:26 “Lift up your eyes to heaven and see. Who has created these things? It is the One who brings out their army by number; He calls them all by name. Because of his vast dynamic energy and his awe-inspiring power, Not one of them is missing." Cross-references: Psalms 102:25 "Long ago you laid the foundations of the earth, And the heavens are the work of your hands." Psalms 147:4 "He counts the number of the stars; He calls all of them by name" Getting the Point: Some people believe that there is no God and yet every house was built by someone it's unreasonable to think something so complex as the universe could be created by a big bang or just evolve. There is a creator! If he knows the name and number of the stars then it should not be hard to imagine that he also knows each of us by name and that he cares about you and me...
