GOD MINUTE!!!
YOU ARE ALL SONS OF GOD THROUGH FAITH IN CHRIST
JESUS, FOR ALL OF YOU WHO WERE BAPTIZED INTO
CHRIST HAVE CLOTHED YOURSELF WITH CHRIST. THERE
IS NEITHER JEW NOR GREEK, SALVE OR FREE, MALE
OR FEMALE, FOR YOU ARE ALL ONE IN CHRIST.
( GALATIANS 3:26-28 *NKJV )
Dear Charles,
Now you know why the message is addressed to God's
Children this morning! For truly those who love and
worship God are His children. FOR IN HIM WE LIVE AND
MOVE AND HAVE OUR BEING. AS SOME OF YOUR
OWN POETS HAVE SAID, WE ARE HIS OFFSPRING.
( ACTS 17:28 ) Think about that the next time you are
feeling low, or are depressed and worried because of a
problem that you are facing. I'll bet that it won't seem so`
big if you do!
So Charles, as a member of God's Great Family,
never feel alone and think that there is no one to turn too,
FOR HE HIMSELF HAS SAID, "I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU
NOR FORSAKE YOU." SO WE MAY BOLDLY SAY "THE
LORD IS MY HELPER; I WILL NOT FEAR. WHAT CAN
MAN DO TO ME?" ( HEBREWS 13:5-6 ) Therefore He will
always be there to love you, and guide you through any
difficulty!
The Prophet David wrote; FOR YOU ARE MY ROCK
AND MY FORTRESS; THEREFORE, FOR YOUR NAME'S
SAKE, LEAD ME AND GUIDE ME. ( PSALM 31:3 ) So;
TRUST IN HIM AT ALL TIMES, YOU PEOPLE; POUR OUT
YOUR HEART BEFORE HIM; GOD IS A REFUGE FOR US.
A refuge indeed! Amen. ( PSALM 62:8 )
With My Love & Prayers,
your servant Allen

NOT SO FAMOUS SITES IN CHARLOTTE COUNTY!!!
I might add that many of these homes are located close to this place -
THINK ABOUT IT!!
Saying Goodbye: Share Your Last Words
Have you ever received the last words of a loved one? Share your story of saying goodbye.
"Tell all - I see them on the other side," one of the West Virginia miners who died earlier this week scrawled on a goodbye note. "It wasn't bad, I just went to sleep."
At the bottom, the note continues, "I love you."
It was a painful reminder of the miners' suffering, as well as a form of consolation for their families and the millions of people who watched their ordeal.
Many people never get to say goodbye before they die, but many others are able to offer last words to their family and friends. Have you ever received words of farewell from a dying loved one? What words do you think you would say if you were close to death?
LEROY ARMSTRONG IS A BIG BOY!!!
I knew I had a picture somewhere in my file.
There's a lot of talk in the media about Liberal MLA Leroy Armstrong taking a first class seat overseas. You must admit that he's a big boy.

GOD'S MINUTE!!!
I WILL LOVE YOU, O LORD, MY STRENGTH. THE LORD
IS MY ROCK AND MY FORTRESS AND MY DELIVERER;
MY GOD, MY STRENGTH, IN WHOM I TRUST; MY SHIELD
AND THE HORN OF MY SALVATION, MY STRONGHOLD.
( PSALM 18:1-2 *NKJV )
Dear Charles,
God is always with us through thick or thin because none
of life's problems are to powerful for Him. So when I received the
following message this week from one of our subscribers, I had
to pass it along. I hope that you will enjoy it as much as I do.
It is called.......
The Holy Alphabet
A lthough things are not perfect
B ecause of trial or pain
C ontinue in thanksgiving
D o not begin to blame
E ven when the times are hard
F ierce winds are bound to blow
G od is forever able
H old on to what you know
I magine life without His love
J oy would cease to be
K eep thanking Him for all the things
L ove imparts to thee
M ove out of "Camp Complaining"
N o weapon that is known
O n earth can yield the power
P raise can do alone
Q uit looking at the future
R edeem the time at hand
S tart every day with worship
T o "thank" is a command
U ntil we see Him coming
V ictorious in the sky
W e'll run the race with gratitude
X alting God most high
Y es, there'll be good times and yes some
will be bad, but...
Z ion waits in glory...where none are ever sad!
So when life throws you a curve, remember Charles, that
the shortest distance between a problem and a solution, is the
distance between your knees and the floor. After all the one who
kneels to the Lord can stand up to anything! Amen.
With My Love & Prayers,
your servant Allen

Psychotropic Drug Prescriptions For Teens Surge 250% Over 7 Year Period
Psychotropic drug prescriptions for teenagers skyrocketed 250 percent between 1994 and 2001, rising particularly sharply after 1999, when the federal government allowed direct-to-consumer advertising and looser promotion of off-label use of prescription drugs, according to a new Brandeis University study in the journal Psychiatric Services.
This dramatic increase in adolescent visits to health care professionals which resulted in a prescription for a psychotropic drug occurred despite the fact that few psychotropic drugs, typically prescribed for ADHD, depression and other mood disorders, are approved for use in children under 18. The study is one of the first to focus on prescriptions to adolescents, rather than children in general.
The study shows that by 2001, one in every ten of all office visits by teenage boys led to a prescription for a psychotropic drug. Other findings in the study show that a diagnosis of ADHD was given in about one-third of office visits during the study period. Also, between 14 and 26 percent of visits in which psychotropic medications were prescribed did not have an associated mental health diagnosis, said lead author Professor Cindy Parks Thomas, an expert on prescription drug trends, at Brandeis University's Heller School for Social Policy and Management.
"There is an alarming increase in prescribing these drugs to teens, and the reasons for this trend need further scrutiny," said Thomas. "Our study suggests a number of factors may be particularly important to assess, including the impact of direct-to-consumer advertising and other marketing strategies."
Additional factors likely fueling the trend, noted by the authors, include greater acceptance among physicians and the public of psychotropic drugs, the advent of new medications with fewer side effects, increased screening for mental health disorders, and patient demand for such drugs. Nevertheless, the study noted that overall, pharmaceutical companies increased their spending on television advertising six fold, to $1.5 billion, between 1996 and 2000, with the trend accelerating after 1997, when the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act was passed.
However, at the same time teenagers were being prescribed more psychotropic drugs than ever before, other prescription drugs taken by adolescents were trending down, said Thomas. For example, the use of antibiotics, the most widely prescribed drugs for teenagers, fell dramatically in response to widespread public educational campaigns about the dangers of antibiotic resistance due to overuse of these drugs.
"The dramatic increase in prescribing of psychotropic medications is of considerable concern, particularly because these medications are not without risks," Thomas said.
