Sunday March 1, 2009 thought for the day

A PRETTY SCENE
Here are my thoughts for today
1-God wants us to find satisfaction in our work because it is His gift to us-
2-"There is nothing better for men than to be happy and do good while they live"
3-God can transform any task into something meaningful-
4-Vocational contentment is a happy match between what you have to do and what you enjoy doing-
5-Contentment is letting God transform your situation-

Strange thought-Some push the envelope, some just lick it, and some can't find the flap-

I've learned-If you want a gallon of milk you should not sit on a stool in the middle of the pasture expecting the cow to back up to you-

5 things I want to know
1-Does a fruit bearing Christian need pruning on a regular basis?
2-Did Jesus always offer forgiveness without being asked for it?
3-How do we become salty Christians?
4-Spiritually speaking, do we do better under adversity or prosperity?
5-Why is it that God often has to speak to us through adversity?

Scripture for today-Proverbs 16:28-33
28 A useless person causes trouble and a gossip ruins friendships.
29 Cruel people trick their neighbors and lead them to do wrong.
30 Someone who winks is planning evil, and the one who grins is planning something wrong.
31 Gray hair is like a crown of honor, it is earned by living a good life.
32 Patience is better than strength. Controlling your temper is better than capturing a city.
33 People throw lots to make a decision, but the answer comes form the Lord.

I wish you a day filled with love, laughter, forgiveness and thanksgiving-jasper
