I was born in Illinois and moved to Wisconsin when I was about 6 years old.
I left there to attend Bible School in St. Paul, MN in 1956.
At the end of the 1956/1957 school year I came to Cincinnati for the summer to sit under Bro. F.E. Curts and hear him teach.
My job which was waiting for me when I got here ended a month later.
It took me a month to find another job (I was "draft" age back then).
Since I'd started a new job I thought maybe I would work for a year before going back to Bible School.
The following year (1958) I got married.
Now, after 49 years of marriage, 5 children and 13 grandchildren, I'm still here.

Bro. Pastor Poster,

In time it will be evident if we were planted by the Father.

In Matt. Jesus said that every plant his Father had not planted

would be rooted up. If indeed it is the Father that planted, in time

a "righteous tree will spring up. And there will be "blooms" and then

in time there will be fruit. Fruit of righteousness, the planting of the

LORD. The fruit will be good.

If the Father did indeed plant the tree, even though when newly planted

it will struggle, in time those roots will grow down, deep, deep into the

earth. That tree knows it was the Father that planted it there. You will

have a difficult time uprooting the "tree" the Father has planted.

Psalm 1, gives a good look at the tree that has been planted by the

Father. He shall be like a tree, planted by the "rivers of water" That

tree is watered continually by the Holy Ghost (River of Life) Life-giving

Waters! (Makes me want to swim out deeper!) This tree bringeth forth

his fruit it its season. This trees leaves shall not wither and whatsoever

he doeth SHALL prosper. Tall, strong trees did not get that way overnight.

It takes time and patience because some little sprouts are going to be

coming forth from that tree and it will take time and patience to nurture

those "sprouts" which will in time become trees of righteousness also if

nurtured with love and patience and watered with prayerful tears! It takes

patience to stand still when you see so much going on all around you.

Trees running to and fro but going where! If you want to stand strong in

the Lord and in the power of HIS might, you're going to have to "be still

and KNOW" that He is God, and that He planted this tree.

Bro. Pastor Poster, be strong in the LORD and in the power of HIS

MIGHT!!

Blessings,

Falla39
