Touch of the Master's Hand
,,

Twas battered and scarred, and the auctioneer: Thought it scarcely worth his while
To waste much time on the old violin, But held it up with a smile:
"What am I bidden, good folk," he cried,"Who'll start the bidding for me?" "
A dollar, a dollar"; then "Two!" "Only two?Two dollars, and who'll make it three?
Three dollars, once; three dollars, twice; Going for three -
"But no, From the room, far back, a grayhaired man
Came forward and picked up the bow; Then, wiping the dust from the violin,
And tightening the loose strings,
He played a melody pure and sweet As a caroling angel sings.
The music ceased, and the auctioneer, With a voice that was quiet and low,
Said: "What am I bid for the old violin?" And he held it up with the bow.
"A thousand dollars, and who'll make it two?Two thousand! and who'll make it three
Three thousand, once, three thousand, twice, And going, and gone," said he.
The people cheered, but some of them cried."We do not quite understand,
What changed its worth," Swift came the reply:
"The touch of the master's hand."
And many a man with life out of tune, And battered and scarred with sin,
Is auctioned cheap to the thoughtless crowd, Much like the old violin.
A "mess of pottage," a glass of wine; A game - and he travels on.
He is "going" once, and "going" twice; He's "going" and almost "gone."
But the Master comes, and the foolish crowd
Never can quite understand
The worth of a soul and the change that's wrought
By the touch of the Master's hand.

I hope that I am fining all of you feeling as good as I am this wednesday morning, I have alreay been into that Sumatra x bold coffee and you know what that does to you. My Mood is Very Happy and I feel like that I can face today with a smile .
.
We do have our bible study to night, our sudy is Esther chapters 2 and 3. I am enjoying our study very much.
.
Here is a little thought for today.
,
'' That's all a man can can hope for during lifetime--- to set an example---and when he is dead, to be an inspiration for history ''
.
This was spoken by Willian McKinley, the 25th president of the United States. Taken by Dad from the Knoxville News Sentinel.
.
.I am enjoying this beautiful fall weather so much. it has been the best here in East Tennessee in many years. We want to be more thankful to our heavenly father for all that he sends us. It is a great joy me to sit at my tomato garden and look out at all of nature, a miracle if there was every one.

FRIDAYS ENTRY # TWO THOUSAND SEVENTY THREE

.
Good Morning.'
.
I hope that you are feeling good this Friday morning . I think that this is going to be another nice day , this has been one of the nice fall seasons that we have had in several years and Dad is enjoying it and getting a lot of things that I love to do. Mary and I a very busy day yesterday just ending little things that we had started and needed to be finished
.
.
I am not sure where I got this below, but I took it to heart and I am going to try to do what it says

. ' "About being a talebearer. Little do we know the damage done telling things. Just because it is true doesn't mean it has to be told. One of the cruelest things we can do is to tell things. Good to just be quiet. If we are wondering if we should tell something, use Philippians 4:8 - the things we should think of - as a filter. If what we want to tell can pass through this filter, go ahead and tell it."

Well it is time again for our Sumatra x bold coffee and our daily visit to see what Sara , Misty and Oreo are planing for this day here at Sara's Dog Training blog it's a pleasure to visit Sara and listen to her explain things to me that I do not know. Thanks Sara. DAD
