Monday Octrober 21, 2013 thought for the day



HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY
1-Mercy owed is no mercy-
2-The secret to personal change is not will power, it is in knowing and facing the truth-
3-The battle with sin starts in your mind, not in your behavior-
4-The way you think determines the way you feel and the way you feel determines the way you act-
5-You are not what you think you are, but rather, what you think, you are-
 
STRANGE THOUGHT-A verbal contract isn't worth the paper it is written on-
 
I'VE LEARNED-The Bible wasn't given to increase our knowledge but rather to change our lives-
 
DID YU KNOW-Tuna will suffocate if they ever stop swimming.  They need a continual flow of water across their gills to breathe, even while they rest-
 
5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW
1-How do angels travel-walk-fly-divinely appear?
2-Will people be able to leave the New Jerusalem and if so where would they go?
3-When will we be able to understand all there is to know of God?
4-Will Christians have anything to do with the universe as we know it?
5-If the sun is a ball of fire, why has it never burned itself out?
 
BIBLE TRIVIA-According to tradition, what apostle lived to a ripe old age after miraculously living through being boiled in oil?
Answer for today   John
 
SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY    Acts 22:26-29
26 When the officer heard this, he went to the commander and reported it. The officer said, “Do you know what you are doing? This man is a Roman citizen.”
27 The commander came to Paul and said, “Tell me, are you really a Roman citizen?”
He answered, “Yes.”
28 The commander said, “I paid a lot of money to become a Roman citizen.”
But Paul said, “I was born a citizen.”
29 The men who were preparing to question Paul moved away from him immediately. The commander was frightened because he had already tied Paul, and Paul was a Roman citizen.

PRAYER FOR TODAY 
Praying manFather, we thank You for the divine power of Your Holy Word which is living and active, sharper than any double edged sword. It cuts through the facade we present to others and reveals the contents of our heart since nothing in all creation is hidden from Your sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before You, our Creator, to whom we must give an account. Search our hearts and cleanse us of our sins. Replace our selfish pursuits and prideful thoughts with Your love divine so that we will magnify Your holy name. In the name of Jesus we pray. Amen.



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