Genesis Today
At Sunday school they were teaching how God created everything, including human beings.
The children in the Kindergarten class seemed to be very intense as they drew a picture of how Eve was created.
Later in the week the mother of one of the kindergarten boys noticed him lying down as though he were ill. “I have a pain in my side,” said the boy. “I think I’m going to have a wife.”

Christ the King
Christ the King of All
Shortly after her Coronation, Queen Victoria attended a splendid performance of Handel’s Messiah. She’d been told in no uncertain terms that members of royalty do not stand with everybody else when the Hallelujah Chorus is sung. It was simply not proper.
But when the singers lifted their voices to shout “Hallelujah, the Lord omnipotent reigneth”, she cold only just stay in her seat. She didn’t want to violate the traditions of royalty.
And when the chorus came to the climax, proclaiming Jesus Christ, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, repeating the phrase with increasing crescendos, the queen of all England and the British Empire rose and bowed her head before Jesus Christ, the King of all – including all earthly kings and queens.
There will come that day when every knee in heaven and earth will bow before him, “And he shall reign for ever and ever! King of Kings and Lord of Lords!”
