Kirksville —
Hello everyone. Don’t forget the Josh Logan concert at Kirksville Community Center on Friday from 6:30 to 11 p.m. Admission is $5 and children under age 12 are free. It will be a family night of fun. Don’t forget to support the center’s concession stand.
Kirksville Baptist Church will be having a potluck supper for all members of the LOVE team on Tuesday night. Everyone is to bring a side dish or dessert plus $1 to help pay for the meat. They are just getting started for 2012 and would love to have new members join them.
Full Gospel Tabernacle’s Proof of Grace will be performing on WLJC on Feb. 23 at 7 p.m. I hope everyone can get the Beattyville channel and watch the group singing and playing for God. It is always a blessed night.
The Clothing Closet at the community center will be open Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon.
Jean told me one time, that they will remain open as long as people are using the clothing bank. The clothing is free.
They have good clothing at the clothing closet. If anyone would like to make a monetary donation at any time, it would be gratefully accepted. Helping people who have a need is their goal and the only reason they stay open.
This cold spell got the farmers busy.
They have to pay more attention to the farm and cattle at this time. They are just like me and Duane.
The cows wait till it is below zero to have a calf.
My old brahma cow had a pretty little chocolate-colored calf. It is doing great.

Things are different than when we were young
I was just thinking the other day about how confused we seniors are most of the time. Things are so different than when we were young. We find it hard to understand much of what we are confronted with.
Some things like this happen to us frequently. We begin a conversation with, “In my day.” We look so old we are followed around by archeologists. We tell our kids that old age causes us to become wiser and they tell us, “Then you must be a genius.” We no longer look forward to a wild evening out, but look forward to a dull evening in. -
We are heirs and joint-heirs to His kingdom
“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
“For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
“The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
“And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
“For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
“For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. — Rom 8:14-19 -
How little exercise is necessary for good health?
How little exercise is necessary for good health?
That question was the subject of a recent investigation by a team of exercise scientists at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, and the answer seems to be a lot less than we might think, as long as we’re willing to put in the effort. -

Rethinking the benefits of crunches
I’ve been doing crunches all my adult life and it may be one of the reasons I have back problems. Research from the University of Waterloo in Ontario has found that repeated bending of the spine, such as occurs when doing crunches, can contribute over time to damage of spinal discs. The results are presented — along with a lot of other useful information — in the book, “Ultimate Back Fitness and Performance” by Stuart McGill.

Is 401(k) good for America?
Internal Revenue Code section 401(k) is the only section of the US tax code that average people can cite.

He is there when you need Him
Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.
If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. — Psalm 139:7-10 -
It’s tough to be old
I was just thinking the other day about how tough it is to be old. We seniors have so many things to contend with. One of the first things is our memory, or perhaps I should say our lack of memory. I’ve often thought it is easier for us to remember things that happened to us when we were kids than to remember what we had for lunch yesterday. Names are hard to recall. It is embarrassing to meet someone who is familiar and we are certain we should know them, but simply cannot remember their name. In a conversation with a friend, to talk about a former friend but neither of you are able to recall their name.
