Monday September 22, 2014 thought for the day



HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY
1-Greed is idolatry-
2-Whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus"-
3-You can profess to believe in Jesus as the savior, but your actions and behavior will confirm or deny you-
4-Your faith in Jesus will be measured by your conduct-
5-The testing of your faith develops perseverance-
 
STRANGE THOUGHT-Thirty three % of the people say they won't have enough money to cover their holiday spending.  These people are called congress-
 
I'VE LEARNED-Truth matters-
 
DID YOU KNOW-President Nixon was the first US president to visit Moscow-
 
5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW
1-Is being "What God wants me to be" a life to be lived or a goal to achieve?
2-Was Moses blessed during the 80 years he was a fugitive?
3-What is a "perfect" day?
4-How do you live a Christ like life?
5-What does Jesus expect of us as his followers?
 
BIBLE TRIVIA-Who was taken up into heaven in the sight of his followers?
Answer for today   Jesus   Acts 1:9
 
SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY   Nehemiah 1:5-6
Lord, God of heaven, you are the great God who is to be respected. You are loyal, and you keep your agreement with those who love you and obey your commands. Look and listen carefully. Hear the prayer that I, your servant, am praying to you day and night
 
PRAYER FOR TODAY 
Thankful manFather, our lives are often tossed to and fro by the billows of heartache, loss, and uncertainty. We’re so grateful for caring friends who are like the islanders of Malta in Acts 28 who cheer us on and wave us in as we’re seeking steady, dry land. They welcome us with warmth like that of a sizzling campfire when we’re drenched with chilling water from the billowing sea. Rather than shake their finger at us and scolding us for getting caught in the storm, they provide shelter, food, and wise counsel so that we no longer feel alone or fear that we will perish in our troubles. Help us to kindle our friendship by acting as a lighthouse giving out Scriptural light to navigate our friends through the scourging rocks of sin and despair. In the name of Jesus we pray. Amen.

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