Wellness Poem by Chris Bunton
Rise up and walk;
when life’s got you down.
Rise up and walk;
your way around town.
When depression sets in;
and you only see the end.
Rise up and walk.
A little here. A little there.
Around the block;
or down a beautiful trail.
Rise up and walk.
If you’re sick;
pray and believe.
Then, rise up and walk.
Trapped in a place?
Rise up and walk.
Use those legs to escape;
and carry you away.
Bored with life?
Bored with those gray, lazy days?
Rise up and walk.
Go see the sites.
Use your super power;
to rise up and walk.
Take yourself away,
from the troubles of any day.

The Coming Storm
The signs of the times Meteorologists warn us about coming storms. Whether it’s a freezing rain and snow or a summer tornado. Folks believe them. They stock up on bread and milk. They buy icy melt. They break out the snow gear and the shovels or flash lights. They check on family. They stay home…
Thanking God
We owe Him everything God gave us life. He gives us the things we need and the joys of this world. When we get saved and know Him, we see that He gives us so much more. We realize that everything comes from Him and all of it works together for our good. Our thankfulness…
