!!!!
Each week you
will be able to read a devotional
thought which we hope you will find
enjoyable and comforting
as well as
insightful and challenging.
Only One Head
| These are actual warning
labels on products: ON TESCO'S TIRIMISU DESSERT Do not turn upside down. (printed on the bottom of the box.) ON MARKS & SPENCER BREAD PUDDING Product will be hot after heating. ON PACKAGING FOR A ROWENTA IRON Do not iron clothes on body. ON CHILDREN'S COUGH MEDICINE Do not drive car or operate machinery. ON NYTOL (A SLEEP AID) Warning: may cause drowsiness. ON A KITCHEN KNIFE Warning: keep out of children. ON A STRING OF CHRISTMAS LIGHTS For indoor or outdoor use only. ON A FOOD PROCESSOR Not to be used for the other use. ON SAINSBURY'S PEANUTS Warning: contains nuts. ON AN AMERICAN AIRLINES PACKET OF NUTS Instructions: open packet, eat nuts. ON A CHAIN SAW Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands. ON A HAIRDRYER Do not use while sleeping. ON A BAG OF FRITOS You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside. ON A BAR OF DIAL SOAP Directions: Use like regular soap. ON A FROZEN DINNER Serving suggestion: Defrost. ON A HOTEL-PROVIDED SHOWER CAP IN A BOX fits one head. Some of those warning labels conjure up some humorous images. Like the last one -- can you imagine trying to fit a shower cap onto two heads at once? Ridiculous, huh? Almost as ridiculous as taking the body of Christ and suggesting it has more than one head. There is one body (Eph. 4:4), and it has only one head. Fortunately, that head is no earthly person or group of people. It is none other than the Son of God himself. "And He is
the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn
from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence." This day, give preeminence and praise to the one who is our head! In Jesus' name, Amen.
