Kids In Need Update

August 29, 2025 – 1:45 pm
From the counselor: I had a couple of stories that just came to me today that I wanted to share with you.  We have a family with 2 students that attend Bethany. Recently, the mom's sister was murdered and this mom has taken guardianship of her 5 nieces and nephews. We are working on some things that can help them in the future, but what a gift that we will be able to put giftcards in their hands to help with some immediate needs.  I was on my way to my office this afternoon and was stopped by Chad M., who was our former assistant principal at the high school and is currently the Activities Director. There was a student last year that Mr. M. had an incredible relationship with. He told me several stories last year about the student weeping when Chad handed him a giftcard. This opened up a door to ...

Today’s Psalms: Psalm 36: 5 Your lovingkindness and graciousness, O LORD, extend to the skies, Your faithfulness [reaches] to the clouds. [6] Your righteousness is like the mountains of God, Your judgments are like the great deep. O LORD, You preserve man and beast. [7] How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God! The children of men take refuge in the shadow of Your wings. [8] They drink their fill of the abundance of Your house; And You allow them to drink from the river of Your delights. [9] For with You is the fountain of life [the fountain of life-giving water]; In Your light we see light. [10] O continue Your lovingkindness to those who know You, And Your righteousness (salvation) to the upright in heart. Psalm 39: 5 Behold, You have made my days as [short as] hand widths, And my lifetime is as nothing in Your sight. Surely every man at his best is a mere breath ...

Soul Cleanse: Day 6

August 28, 2025 – 4:47 am
Today’s Psalms: Psalm 31: 19 How great is Your goodness, Which You have stored up for those who [reverently] fear You, Which You have prepared for those who take refuge in You, Before the sons of man! [20] In the secret place of Your presence You hide them from the plots and conspiracies of man; You keep them secretly in a shelter (pavilion) from the strife of tongues. Psalm 33: 10 The LORD nullifies the counsel of the nations; He makes the thoughts and plans of the people ineffective. [11] The counsel of the LORD stands forever, The thoughts and plans of His heart through all generations. [12] Blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the nation whose God is the LORD, The people whom He has chosen as His own inheritance. [13] The LORD looks [down] from heaven; He sees all the sons of man; [14] From His dwelling place He looks closely Upon all the inhabitants ...

Soul Cleanse: Day 4

August 26, 2025 – 4:32 am
Today’s Psalms: Psalm 19: 1 The heavens are telling of the glory of God; And the expanse [of heaven] is declaring the work of His hands. [2] Day after day pours forth speech, And night after night reveals knowledge. [3] There is no speech, nor are there [spoken] words [from the stars]; Their voice is not heard. [4] Yet their voice [in quiet evidence] has gone out through all the earth, Their words to the end of the world. In them and in the heavens He has made a tent for the sun, [5] Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber; It rejoices as a strong man to run his course. [6] The sun’s rising is from one end of the heavens, And its circuit to the other end of them; And there is nothing hidden from its heat. [7] The law of the LORD is perfect (flawless), restoring and refreshing the soul; The statutes ...

Soul Cleanse: Day 3

August 25, 2025 – 1:27 am
Today’s Psalms: Psalm 11 3 If the foundations [of a godly society] are destroyed, What can the righteous do?” [4] The LORD is in His holy temple; the LORD’S throne is in heaven. His eyes see, His eyelids test the children of men. [5] The LORD tests the righteous and the wicked, And His soul hates the [malevolent] one who loves violence. [6] Upon the wicked (godless) He will rain coals of fire; Fire and brimstone and a dreadful scorching wind will be the portion of their cup [of doom]. [7] For the LORD is [absolutely] righteous, He loves righteousness (virtue, morality, justice); The upright shall see His face. Psalm 18: 1 I love you, LORD; you are my strength. [2] The LORD is my rock, my fortress, and my savior; my God is my rock, in whom I find protection. He is my shield, the power that saves me, and my place of safety. [3] I called on ...

Today’s Psalms: Psalm 9: 1 I will give thanks and praise the LORD, with all my heart; I will tell aloud all Your wonders and marvelous deeds. [2] I will rejoice and exult in you; I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High. [3] When my enemies turn back, They stumble and perish before You. [4] For You have maintained my right and my cause; You have sat on the throne judging righteously. [5] You have rebuked the nations, You have destroyed the wicked and unrepentant; You have wiped out their name forever and ever. [6] The enemy has been cut off and has vanished in everlasting ruins, You have uprooted their cities; The very memory of them has perished. [7] But the LORD will remain and sit enthroned forever; He has prepared and established His throne for judgment. [8] And He will judge the world in righteousness; He will execute judgment for the nations with ...
