Candlelight Service Tid Bits for Living By REV. T J . . STRAYHAND The little boy In the C hrist inas program had but one sentence to say, "Behold I bring you good T id in g s." After rehearsal he asked his mother what the word tidings meant, and she told him It meant news. On the night of the pro gram the little boy was stage struck and forgot his line. The idea quickly came to him and he shouted to his audience, "H ey, I got good news fo r you, it's C hristm as." This Is good news. As we celebrate Christmas this year let It be good news fo r every body. You can make It good news by helping to make oth ers happy. Most of us consider it good news when we have been waiting the outcome of something and receive the word that it Is favorable o r better than we expected. The news always sound better when It Is directly related to us.
