As the mourners wept;
My loving wife, now gone to a
better place.
A dark void of pain has swept;
Green Peas; You Say
Thank You!
Mournful was my heart;
People sat. many in shock,
upon each face;
As my very life, is torn apart;
Green Peas; You Say
Thank You!
Familiar tunes, ring through
the air;
Moody cold, a lonesome sad
pace:
My feelings debut, with open
despair;
Green Peas; You Say
Thank You!

Through Ordinary You.” First,
we will look at the "Four Keys to
Effective Living” taken from
Hebrews 11:23-27. Why was
God able to use Moses in such a
significant wav? Because Moses
was able to settle the four basic
questions of life! Do you know
these four basic questions?
Well, last Lord's Day we looked
at “Who Am I?", and this
Sunday we will examine “What
Are My Choices?". “What is
Really Important?”, and "What
Are My Goals?". And you're
Invited to our 10 a.m. celebra-
