Sunday November 23, 2008 thought for the day


A BEAUTIFUL FALL SCENE
Here are my thoughts for today
1-Wise men talk because they have something to say, foolish men talk because they have to say something-
2-A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity, an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty-
3-Observe your enemies for they are the first to see your faults-
4-It is so much easier to be critical than to be correct-
5-If you haven't the strength to impose your own terms on life, you must accept the terms it offers you-

Strange thought-People who aren't afraid to roll up their sleeves seldom lose their shirts-

I've learned-An expert is one who is called in at the last minute to share the blame-

5 things I want to know
1-Some portions of the New Testament have footnotes saying this portion was not included with the earliest reliable manuscripts, so how and why was it included?
2-Mark is reported to be the earliest gospel written but it's original manuscript makes no reference to any resurrection appearances--why?
3-When was the first New Testament scripture written after Jesus's resurrection?
4-Is there any importance in knowing what order the gospels and Acts were written?
5-Are the "fruits of the spirit" a product of the saved or sanctified life?

Scripture for today-I command you: be firm and steadfast! Do not fear nor be dismayed, for the Lord, your God, is with you wherever you go--Joshua 1:9

I wish you a day filled with love, laughter, forgiveness and thanksgiving-jasper
