Wednesday july 29, 2009 thought for the day

PEACE

HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY

1-Faith is active, it is never just mental assent-

2-When we begin to have faith, God will validate it-

3-Christianity isn't true because it works, it works because it is true-

4-A person resists God because of a moral resistance that refuses to admit their need for God-

5-It is the person who wants to know God that God reveals himself to-

STRANGE THOUGHT-Do the same "slow children at play" grow up to be "slow men at work"?

I'VE LEARNED-The measure of love is not feelings but behavior-

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

1-Why should we believe that creation occurred 6000 years ago rather than millions of years ago?

2-Why did Jesus go into hell after his crucifixion and what did he do there?

3-What would hell have been like with Jesus there?

4-Would hell have been a sanctified place with Jesus there?

5-When Jesus was in hell after his crucifixion, would he have been subject to Satan?

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY PSALMS 44:9-17

9 You have rejected us and shamed us. You don't march with our armies anymore.

10 You let our enemies push us back, and those who hate us have taken our wealth.

11 You gave us away like sheep to be eaten and have scattered us among the nations.

12 You sold your people for nothing and made no profit on the sale.

13 You made us a joke to our neighbors; those around us laugh and make fun of us.

14 You made us a joke to the other nations; people shake their heads.

15 I am always in disgrace and I am covered with shame.

16 My enemy is getting even with insults and curses.

17 All these things have happened to us, but we have not forgotten you or failed to keep our agreement with you.

I WISH YOU A DAY FILLED WITH LOVE, LAUGHTER, FORGIVENESS AND THANKSGIVING-JASPER
