Memories of Miss Nell
In the 1930s there was an organization of young girls in Elgin called Rainbow Girls. They were part of Eastern Star, which was composed of adult women. My mother, Mattie Belle Upchurch Smith, was a Rainbow Girl along with her friends Betty Wilson Dildy and Joy Cole Fromme. 08/15/2023 11:00 PM
Jesus Gives Us His Kingdom
Jesus Gives Us His Kingdom
To have a kingdom, you must have a king. In the Old Testament, the Lord gave lofty promises about a future King coming who would be like King David, only better. When Jesus came, He didn’t seem to fit the bill. The wise men could content themselves with Jesus as King, but not Israel. That little baby didn’t really seem like much of a king, even less after He grew up. Jesus said, “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head” (Matthew 8:20). Nothing regal about that. 08/15/2023 11:00 PM
