Paul’s Ponder
 
6 This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God’s servants, who give their full time to governing. 7 Give to everyone what you owe them: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.
Romans 13: 6-7
 
April - Taxes are due! Paul says in the verses preceding this that those in authority are God’s servant for your good (v. 4). Pay your taxes.
 
Notice that on the same level as taxes Paul mentions paying debts, respect and honor. Respect and honor seem very different to taxes and debts, yet Paul gives them similar importance.
 
Several years ago in Palm Desert, we started a yearly honor to glorify God through His servants. We usually don’t know about people very much until we attend their memorials. Then we say, “I wish I had known them better.” God has blessed each congregation with people who have amazing stories. The Bible is full of stories of people who have accomplished things to encourage us to be better people for God. God hasn’t stopped working. Personal stories today can also encourage and inspire us.
 
I recently finished a book by Terry Wells-Jones entitled, Reflections! Looking in the Mirror. Terry is a member of the Palm Desert church. She is outgoing, sweet and a very loving person. But I never would have guessed what she has done that has touched the lives of millions. Terry is a godly, talented woman who broke through glass ceilings as a model and business woman. Terry has opened up opportunities for all women. She talks in her book about growing up in a small rural town and the disrespect she received during the Jim Crow era. She is open about her struggles but mostly she is encouraging about the power of faith. You need to buy this book and read it. It will encourage you to be a more focused and determined person. God bless you, Terry, for sharing your encouraging and inspiring example.

My dogs finally chewed pieces off of these bones but it took forever for them to do it and they didn’t chew very much off! These are great and I will buy more!

Don’t buy
Size: 5 in
I bought one at a store for my Rottweiler puppy, about 2 months ago, I bought one from here n about 5 minutes she had chewed the end off, they did send me another, no charge, well I received the other bone yesterday, she chewed a big split in it. Won’t buy anymore, I’m out the money, which isn’t much. Made in China also, no more. Going back to Kong toys, they do last with aggressive chewers. Don’t know why but the one I bought at the store is holding up real good.

Eh...
Size: 5 in
I had high hopes for these cause we have other spot brand toys that have last a long time. Unfortunately these just don't hold up to the test! My dogs had them broken in about 5 - 10 mins. They did smell good tho and my dogs went crazy over them before I ever got them out of the bag. Lol.

Smells too strong
Size: 5 in
My dog hates the way this thing smells. She tries to play with it, but the scent is too strong for her nose. I know it's the scent because she usually sniffs it two or three times in between trying to grab it with her mouth. She treats it like an explosive in her mouth and quickly moves away after spitting it out. She used to have a bone that looked similar to this (same material) that was unscented and she gnawed the hell out of it. My sister's pitbull spent the night and chewed that toy into bits, leaving my Yorkie mourning the loss of her once treasured bone. Please make an UNSCENTED version of this toy!!!!
