We've all heard it when we have one of those insurmountable needs that life brings our way. Our Christian brothers and sisters will tell us to turn it over to the Lord. "Put it in His hands," they will often say.That's great advice and I certainly don't disagree with it. But the spiritual question is how?

On Sunday morning Pastor Whitehouse preached a sermon titled “Will You Be Ready?” He based it on scriptures found in Timothy 3:1, Matthew 24: 36 and Luke 21. For the children’s sermon he showed the children many things that we use to clean our hands of germs. While that is important, it is more important that we have a clean heart. We should be careful of how we treat other people and always think before we speak.
