One day, four guys were talking about various translations of the Bible. One said, “I prefer the King James Version of the Bible” for its eloquent use of English.” Another preacher said no Bible could match the New American Standard’s faithfulness to the original Greek and Hebrew text. “The third said, “I prefer the New International Version for its contemporary language and easy readability.” There was a period of silence, and the fourth preacher said, “I like my mother’s translation best.” Surprised, the others said: “We didn’t know that your mother had translated the Bible.” “Yes, she did,” he replied. “She translated it into her daily life, and it was through her translation that led me to Christ.”
Mothers are constantly planting seeds, some of which grow today and some tomorrow. They play a vital role in helping the family get there.

One Another
All clean and cooled off by a nice swim in the ocean, Herman Trueblood saw a sweating man and his two sons trying on a hot day to push a disabled car up an incline. Two voices started yelling at each other inside him. One said, "There is an opportunity for service; you ought to help them push." The other voice protested, "Now that is none of your business. You will get yourself all hot and dirty. Let them handle their own affair."
He finally yielded to his better impulse and put his shoulder to the task. The car moved and kept moving. A simple thing then happened that Trueblood never forgot.
The father stuck out his dirty hand, and Trueblood stuck out his... The father said, "I am very glad that you came along. You had just enough strength, added to ours, to make the thing go."
Trueblood reflected, "Years have passed since that hot day, but I can still hear that man saying, "You had just enough strength, added to ours, to make the thing go."
Many people are struggling to get some heavy load over the hill, and I probably have just enough strength, added to theirs, to make the thing go. In I Peter 4, Peter challenges us to put our shoulders to the task of helping one another, loving one another, and serving one another.
