Peace River Shopper
April 10, 2018
As long as we are in this life we are tied to our human bodies. We can either bring honor or dishonor to our bodies. Human beings do not have the right to do what they want with their bodies. Folks our human bodies do not belong to us, they belong to God who created them. Humans live their lives for their own pleasure and selfish desires. First Corinthians 6:15 tells us; Don’t you know that your bodies are a part of Christ’s body (the church). So the question is how should being united with Christ show how a person views what he or she does with their body. Folks our bodies are temples for the Holy Spirit of God. We are not our own for we were bought with a terrible price. People, both men and women, defile the temples of the Holy Spirit. This is where God abides in us. Remember folks, this is where God communicates with us with our spirit. Our bodily temples are sacred with God and should be kept clean at all times. Jesus commands our obedience and deserves total devotion because of who he is and what he has done for us. If we have been purchased by him then we belong to him. We were bought for this with his shedding blood. People can bring glory to God by how they care for and use their bodies. Once the body dies, a resurrection takes place. Our bodies being a natural body when raised is spiritual. As Jesus was resurrected from the dead after 3 days so are we at our death. As flesh and blood cannot inherit God’s kingdom everything and everyone once we die will be spiritual. A spiritual body will be a new experience for us. Folks we will all be changed to a new body sooner or later. God tells us that we will be resurrected. The dead will be raised first then we which are alive will follow. Jesus’ resurrection from the dead gave proof that God has the power and will to overcome death. The Bible tells us death is the last enemy we have to overcome. Death will be conquered and become not an end but a new beginning. Thank you folks.
Why Should We Take Care Of Our Human Bodies?

Gay Drake Albritton (81) passed away peacefully in her sleep March 31 in Cumming, GA, surrounded by her beloved family. Gay was born in Ridgeway, Illinois on June 6, 1936 to Perry and Lessie Drake. Gay and the family moved to North Ft. Myers shortly thereafter. She was the second of ten children. In 1958, she moved to Bowling Green and married T.J. Albritton on her birthday in 1959. They made their home in the Center Hill community where they raised their three girls. Gay drove a school bus for Hardee District Schools for 20 years before she retired to care for her husband during his illness. She moved to Alpharetta, GA in 2009 where she lived with Temptie and Tim. She found the hustle and bustle of a large town to be too much and they all relocated to Dawsonville, GA, where Gay enjoyed country living again. Gay dearly loved her family. She enjoyed reading, making jelly, fishing, caring for her chickens, cooking for her family, and keeping up with friends on Facebook with her iPad. Her true passion, however, was gardening. There wasn’t a flower she couldn’t call by name. She delighted in being able to grow “northern” flowers in her new climate such as daffodils, tulips, and buttercups. In true southern tradition, most of her plants came from the clippings of family and friends. Having a green thumb, she was always thrilled to share her garden with others. Gay is preceded in death by her husband T.J Albritton ; parents, Perry Drake and Lessie Chapin; sister Corrine Starling and brothers David Drake, Preston Drake, John Henry Drake, Charles Durrance and Luigi Durrance. She leaves behind three daughters: Marie Dasher (Richard) of Zolfo Springs, Temptie Knapp (Tim) of Dawsonville, GA, and Beth VanSickle (James) of Bowling Green; six grandchildren; five great grandchildren; one brother, Richard Durrance of California; sisters Shirley Rolison of O’Brien, FL and Virginia Turner of Brunswick, GA, and numerous nieces and nephews. Visitation beginning 2:30 p.m. until 4:00 p.m. Saturday the 7th of April at Ft. Green Baptist Church where she was still a member. Services will follow at 4:00 p.m. Interment will be at Ft. Green Baptist Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Ft. Green Baptist Church Building Fund, 2875 Baptist Church Rd, Bowling Green, FL. On line condolences can be made at www.pongerkaysgrady.com Ponger-Kays-Grady Funeral Home and Cremation Service has been entrusted with the arrangements.

“THE DREAM”
Peace River Shopper
Chapter 12 by Bumpy Thermos We sit and talked for a while with the old man and woman. They made me feel very welcome and safe. The Sheriff assured them that he would look for Tommy and let them know he was ok. After a little while, the Sheriff says that we needed to find Tommy and we left. I turned and looked back as we went down the road. The two old people were dancing in their front yard. It was kind of a funny dance, they were holding hands and spinning each other around. I thought it looked very odd, but I didn’t say anything to the Sheriff. Anyway, the Sheriff decided that we should go have a look at that harness that my Aunt had found. So, we head toward my Aunt’s house. It is really too far to go back to my car first, so we go straight over there. We pull up to the house and my friends, wife and my Aunt come walking out. Here I am in the back seat of a Sheriff’s car. I bet I really looked funny, but what could I do? We pull up and the Sheriff starts talking to them before he lets me out. What kind of stuff is that? Finally he turns my way and comes over to my door and lets me out. We explain what was going on and my Aunt goes and gets the harness. The Sheriff takes a good look at the harness and asks my Aunt if he can take it with him to look over. She agrees and off we go again. On the way back, the Sheriff makes a call to someone about looking at this harness. When we get back to his office, there is a big funny looking guy waiting for us. He takes one look at the harness and says, yep that’s my harness. The Sheriff turns to me and says that I can go now and that he will contact me if I’m needed any more. Oh no you don’t, I say. You have got to tell me who or what was wearing that harness. The big funny looking guy turns to me and says, oh that harness belongs to Alvin. Obviously it doesn’t belong to Alvin the chipmunk, so I say Alvin your pet. And he says yes, Alvin is my pet monkey. I thought to myself, how big is your pet monkey? But I didn’t, I just turned and headed back to my Aunt’s house. When I got there, everyone was sitting down to dinner, so I sat down with them. My Aunt had fixed lima beans and rice. She had made these great big biscuits. Yum, yum. I sit down and tried to explain everything to everybody that had happened to me that day with the Sheriff. It was just about dark when we decided to take off and continue our trip to Tennessee when the knock came on the back door. My Aunt goes to the door and opens it…
