Today’s Story

The search for the busiest family in Coleraine is over!
And the winner is…The Fisher Family! (The Morrison's cousins.)

Why are they working so much? The parents are saving for a first-class family vacation, while the Fisher kids are feeling like their family is already drifting miles apart.

Without his parents around to pay attention to him, Patrik Fisher starts making some bad choices. And, he's got Timmy helping him pull off a daring scheme!

When Timmy gets pinched for the crime, he's got to do the time!

HOW ABOUT YOU…Is your family running to keep up with so many activities that you sometimes miss each other?

CHECK THIS OUT…What does man gain from all his labor at which he toils under the sun (Ecclesiastes 1:3)? Good question! The writer here was suggesting that all except that which honors God and our families is meaningless. We can spend all day working on what seems good to us. Meanwhile, the people who are relying on us for love and support might be feeling rejected.

Take time today to be there for someone you haven't seen in a while. You could call or e-mail a long distance friend or relative. Often, we can honor God best by loving the people He has blessed us with.
