Nehemiah

Well we went through an entire Sunday without using the classic Nehemiah joke. Knock, Knock. Actaully it goes, "Who is the shortest guy in the Bible?, Nehemiah, cause he was only knee high. But we did learn some serious stuff too. Nehemiah was not a complainer, he didn't see a problem and then just whine about it and cry like a baby, he decieded he was going to do something about, and that is what he did. After praying he went before the king and the king made him a governor of Jerusalem so that Nehemiah could rebuilt the walls around his beloved city. We should most defineitly follow Nehemiah's example, when we see a problem, instead of complaining we should pray for God's strength and see how He uses us to work through the difficulties.
