Lesson was self control
What was important to you?
Chalmers: expulsive power of a new affection
Beats body = wearing down resistance like the importunate widow
Everyone is going to have an ultimate object
What about the younger generation tendency to nihilism? Do they have no ultimate object? YES they do have an object!
We all tend to want approval of others more than a more permanent, "higher" thing that cannot be lost.
We may not consciously identify some lesser ultimate thing. Perhaps it just develops in us. Maybe it's approval, or personal comfort.
Our mind and heart must help each other focus on the ultimate object that ORDERS all other things in your life.

Tibbetts are looking forward to Fred having an appointment with a heart specialist at UT Southwestern (Dallas). But that is not happening until end of March. So prayers for healing, or that his condition remains stable, and for him to have a better situation with a doctor and provision for medication.
