Wednesday March 25, 2009 thought for the day

A PRETTY PICTURE
Here are my thoughts for today
1-What happens around us is largely outside our control but the way we choose to react to it is inside our control-
2-Life is a voyage in which we choose neither vessel nor weather, but much can be done in the manning of the sails and guidance of the helm-
3-God wants you to make good decisions and one of the principles involved in reaching a decision is--don't start talking, pray!-
4-"In all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct your path"
5-Dying bravely and with honor does not need any special training, only a living faith in God-

Strange thought-A lifetime on earth doesn't last very Long, it is here today and gone tomorrow-

I've learned-Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully-

5 things I want to know
1-At what point do you go from faith believing things will change to accepting things as they are?
2-Did Jesus ever feel depressed?
3-After all God had done for Elijah, why was he so afraid of Jezebel?
4-Did God ever promise something (as recorded in scripture) and then change his mind and not do it?
5-When Saul said "Who are you Lord?" how did he know who was speaking?

Scripture for today Proverbs 22:17-23
17 Listen carefully to what wise people say; pay attention to what I am teaching you.
18 It will be good to keep these things In mind so that you are ready to repeat them.
19 I am teaching them to you now so that you will put your trust in the Lord.
20 I have written thirty sayings for you, which give knowledge and good advice.
21 I am teaching you true and reliable words so that you can give true answers to anyone who asks.
22 Do not abuse poor people because they are poor, and do not take away the rights of the needy in court.
23 The Lord will defend them in court and will take the life of those who take away their rights.

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