Sunday May 29, 2011 thought for the day

HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY

1-We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give-

2-Contentment is freedom from frustration and worry over unfulfilled desires-

3-You can't have a relationship with someone you don't know-

4-Confidence comes from not fearing to be wrong, not from always being right-

5-It takes a lifetime to build a reputation and only a few seconds to ruin it-

STRANGE THOUGHT-A sharp tongue is the quickest way to cut your throat-

I'VE LEARNED-if we don't pay attention we pay latter-

DID YOU KNOW-Fresh apples float in water because 25% of their volume is air-

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

1-Does God ever withhold his blessings-if so when?

2-God gives, but does he also take away?

3-How do you speak the truth in love?

4-What is "circumcision of the heart"?

5-Why did David run when he heard that King Saul was going to kill him if he knew he would be king someday?

BIBLE TRIVIA-What woman saved her city by negotiating peacefully with Joab?

Yesterday's answer-The Bahurim woman 2 Samuel 20:17:19

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY Philippians 1:27-30

²⁷ Only one thing concerns me: Be sure that you live in a way that brings honor to the Good News of Christ. Then whether I come and visit you or am away from you, I will hear that you are standing strong with one purpose, that you work together as one for the faith of the Good News,²⁸ and that you are not afraid of those who are against you. All of this is proof that your enemies will be destroyed but that you will be saved by God.²⁹ God gave you the honor not only of believing in Christ but also of suffering for him, both of which bring glory to Christ.³⁰ When I was with you, you saw the struggles I had, and you hear about the struggles I am having now. You yourselves are having the same kind of struggles.

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