So You Are Shaking In Your Boots (1 of 9)

2 Timothy 1:6-8
1. John Hunter in his book 'Knowing God's Secrets' writes: ''Medical science now recognizes that between 60 and 90% of our sicknesses are caused by such emotions as fear, sorrow, envy, resentment, hatred.''
2. I do not know his source for such figures, but I will say, that if those figures are true, then we need to learn how to deal with how we feel. We need to learn how to handle what's handling us.

What followed was perhaps the most daring and miraculous rescue in history.
Lovell said he heard a small but distinct bang. He was in mid-air at the time and didn't feel what Jack Swaggert felt, who at the time was at the controls. Swaggert said he felt a small shutter. They wouldn't have thought that much about it except at that moment in all three earphones the master alarm went off. The control center at Houston, which not only monitors the spacecraft, but the astronauts as well, said, in 5 seconds their heart rate went from 70 to 130 beats per minute. I think we would all agree, those three astron ...
