Saturday April 9, 2011 thought for the day

HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY
1-Only God can truly change someone-
2-We are called to love not criticize-
3-Don't complain when complaining does no good-
4-We need to show Jesus to others by a lifestyle that lives his principles-
5-To have good relationships with one another we must major on the positive attributes and minor on the negative ones-
STRANGE THOUGHT-We are faced with a strange choice: work or daytime TV-
I'VE LEARNED-Don't look where you fell but where you slipped-
DID YOU KNOW-Carbonated water is the main ingredient in soda pop-
5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW
1-Why did God have to make Paul so helpless and blind at his conversion?
2-What would Paul have thought about during his days of blindness?
3-Does repenting mean confessing or being truly sorry?
4-Do you have to repent to be forgiven of your sins?
5-Do you have to be baptized to be forgiven of your sins?
BIBLE TRIVIA-What false prophet was a sorcerer and an attendant of the proconsul, Sergius Paulus?
Yesterday's answer-Azariah
SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY TITUS 2:11-15

11 That is the way we should live, because God's grace that can save everyone has come. 12 It teaches us not to live against God nor to do the evil things the world wants to do. Instead, that grace teaches us to live in the present age in a wise and right way and in a way that shows we serve God. 13 We should live like that while we wait for our great hope and the coming of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ.14 He gave himself for us so he might pay the price to free us from all evil and to make us pure people who belong only to him—people who are always wanting to do good deeds.

15 Say these things and encourage the people and tell them what is wrong in their lives, with all authority. Do not let anyone treat you as if you were unimportant.

PRAYER FOR TODAY-

Lord, I am one of your people, the sheep of your flock. I pray for you to heal those who are wounded; touch those who are in pain; clean those who are soiled; warm those who are cold; help me to know the Father's love through Jesus the shepherd, and through the Spirit.

Help me to lift up that love, and show it all over this land. Help me to build love on justice and justice on love. Help me to believe mightily, hope joyfully, and love divinely. Renew me that I may help renew the face of the earth.

Amen.

GREATLY BLESSED, HIGHLY FAVORED, IMPERFECT BUT FORGIVEN CHILD OF GOD!!!
