Friday February 12, 2010 thought for the day

NOT MORE SNOW!!!

HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY

1-Jesus died on a cross so the whole world could see that his arms were stretched out for all-

2-There is no surprise more magical than the surprise of being loved-

3-A father is a man who expects his son to be as good a man as he meant to be-

4-Nothing makes a person more productive than the last minute-

5-Home is where the heart's tears can dry at their own pace-

STRANGE THOUGHT-Freezer bags are male because they hold everything in, but you can see right through them-

I'VE LEARNED-Be generous to those who need your help, be frugal with what you need yourself-

DID YOU KNOW-Ronald Reagan was the only president to be the head of a labor union-

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

1-Who were the Publicans, Sadduces and Pharisees?

2-Is a tithe too much for God to expect of us today in this economy?

3-Did the Sadduces and Pharisees have different religious beliefs?

4-Were the Pharisees really good religious Jews who had become legalistic in trying to obey their Jewish laws?

5-If the Pharisees were not of large numbers (or were they), how did they hold so much influence over the people?

BIBLE TRIVIA-What king of Moab was famous as a sheep farmer?

Yesterday's answer-Ahaziah (2 Kings 1:2)

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY PSALM 135:8-14

8 He destroyed the firstborn sons in Egypt, the firstborn of both people and animals.

9 He did many signs and miracles in Egypt against the king and his servants.

10 He defeated many nations and killed powerful kings:

11 Sihoin king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kings of Canaan.

12 Then he gave their land as a gift, a gift to his people, the Israelites.

13 Lord, your name is everlasting; Lord, you will be remembered forever.

14 The Lord defends his people and has mercy on his servants.

I WISH YOU A DAY FILLED WITH LOVE, LAUGHTER, FORGIVENESS AND THANKSGIVING-JASPER
