Thursday February 11, 2010 thought for the day

WELCOME TO THE EAST COAST!!!

HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY-

1-Don't trade something essential for something that is fleeting-

2-Don't trade something of consequence for something of no consequence-

3-Happiness is not having what you want but wanting what you have-

4-A laugh at your own expense costs you nothing-

5-Gratitude is the memory of the heart-

STRANGE THOUGHT-Swimming with the tide leaves you no where-

I'VE LEARNED-Be strong enough to face the world each day, be weak enough to know you can't do everything alone-

DID YOU KNOW-Ronald Reagan was the only divorced president-

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

1-Did Lazarus receive a new body or the old one revived?

2-When Jesus healed the 10 lepers, why did only one (a Samaritan) come back to thank him?

3-In the story of the 10 lepers which Jesus healed, one was a Samaritan, but who were the other 9?

4-Why was Jesus so critical of the Pharisees?

5-Did Jesus express his anger and criticism with love?

BIBLE TRIVIA-What king of Israel consulted the god Baalzebub after falling off his palace balcony?

Yesterday's answer-Jehoshaphat (1 Kings 22:48)

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY PSALM 135:1-7

1 Praise the Lord! Praise the name of the Lord: praise him, you servants of the Lord,

2 you who stand in the Lord's Temple and in the Temple courtyards.

3 Praise the Lord, because he is good; sing praises to him, because it is pleasant.

4 The Lord has chosen the people of Jacob for himself; he has chosen the people of Israel for his very own.

5 I know that the Lord is great. Our Lord is greater than all the gods.

6 The Lord does what he pleases, in heaven and on earth, in the seas and the deep oceans.

7 He brings the clouds from the ends of the earth. He sends the lighting with the rain. He brings out the wind from his storehouses.

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