HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY

1-Measure success by what you do after you are tired-

2-People are like wine, age sours the bad and improves the good-

3-If we pause to think, we'll have cause to thank-

4-When your knees knock, kneel on them-

5-Where there is great love, there always is great miracles-

STRANGE THOUGHT-An optimist says that we live in the best of all possible worlds, a pessimist believes this is true-

I'VE LEARNED-How long a minute takes is dependent on which side of the bathroom door you are on-

DID YOU KNOW-Donald Duck comics were banned in Finland because he doesn't wear pants-

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

1-Were there other important words which Jesus spoke which are not recorded in scripture?

2-Did all the disciples and apostles expect Jesus to return in their lifetime?

3-What is "timelessness" like?

4-Will the Jews begin blood sacrifices for sin atonement again when the Jerusalem Temple is rebuilt?

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY MARK14:61-65

61 The high priest asked Jesus another question: "Are you the Christ, the Son of the blessed God?"

62 Jesus answered, "I am. And in the future you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of God, the Powerful One, and coming on clouds in the sky."

63 When the high priest heard this, he tore his clothes and said, "We don't need any more witnesses!

64 You all heard him say these things against God. What do you think?" They all said that Jesus was guilty and should die.

65 Some of the people there began to spit at Jesus. They blindfolded him and beat him with their fists and said, "Prove you are a prophet!" Then the guards led Jesus away and beat him.

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