Tuesday, July 26 Reviving an Old Practice These things I write to you, though I hope to come to you shortly; but if I am delayed, I write so that you may know how you ought to conduct yourself.... 1 Timothy 3:14-15 Recommended Reading 1 Timothy 3:14-16 Newsweek recently carried a story on the passing of the era of the personal letter, saying, "The decline in letter writing constitutes a cultural shift so vast that in the future, historians may divide time not between B.C. and A.D. but between the eras when people wrote letters and when they did not."1 That may be overstated, but maybe not. Historians depend on personal letters to fill in the gaps of the human story. In bygone eras, letter writing was the only way people could communicate over distance, and correspondents were often self-revealing in what they penned. They left a historical record of their life, a legacy. With the invention of Morse's telegraph that began to change; and in our age of email and text messages few people sit down long enough to write a personal note of more than a few hurried words. Considering this vacuum, what an impact a hand-written letter of encouragement can be. Find some appropriate stationery, a good pen, and give it a try. You never know who you might encourage as you revive an age-old practice that works! To send a letter is a good way to go somewhere without moving anything but your heart. Phyllis Theroux, essayist 1"The Good Word," Newsweek newsweek.com/2009/01/17/the-good-word.html. Read-Thru-the-Bible Isaiah 44:1-47:15
