Furniture What is the story behind this "For Sale" sign? Is it just a house that's for sale, or is this a tale of happiness or sorrow~--of success or defeat? Let's hope this story has a happy ending! But this isn't a world of make-believe we live in. God made us human beings, not puppets. He has given us minds and bodies, nerves and muscles--and weakness as well as strength, Maybe the story behind this house Is a happy ene. Maybe It's a sad one. Regardless, the people who lived here, like all of us, will be able to accept both good fortune and bad if there is yet another house in their lives. The House of the Tord, the Church, has been built to endure through the ages. Here we will always have a home--during our lives on earth as well as throughout eternity. Copyright 1961, Keister Adv.
