Monday March 1, 2010 thought for the day

TWINS-FRIENDS

HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY

1-Children are living messages we send to a time we will not see-

2-Jesus who needed to pray so little prayed so much-

3-What we obtain too cheaply we esteem too lightly. It is dearness that gives everything meaning-

4-America is great because it is good--if it ever ceases to be good it will cease to be great-

5-The harder you work, the luckier you get-

STRANGE THOUGHT-Nothing fixes a thing so intensely in the memory as the wish to forget it-

I'VE LEARNED-Give people a chance to love you for that is how you learn to love-

DID YOU KNOW-The famous painting "Whistler's Mother" was once bought from a pawn shop-

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

1-Did Jesus expect his disciples to stay awake all night praying with him in Gethsemane?

2-Where was Pilate when Caiphas sent Jesus to him?

3-What do we know of Pilate's background or family?

4-What do we know about Pilate after Jesus' crucifixion?

5-How could Annas, a deposed high priest, call an illigal assembly of the Jewish Sanhedrin at his house?

BIBLE TRIVIA-Who irritated his brothers by telling them of his dreams?

Yesterdays's answer-Laban, Jacob's father in law (Genesis 31:29)

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY PSALM 143:1-6

1 Lord, hear my prayer; listen to my cry for mercy. Answer me because you are loyal and good.

2 Don't judge me, your servant, because no one alive is right before you.

3 My enemies are chasing me; they crushed me to the ground. They made me live in darkness like those long dead.

4 I am afraid; my courage is gone.

5 I remember what happened long ago; I consider everything you have done. I think about all you have made.

6 I lift my hands to you in prayer. As a dry land needs rain, I thirst for you.

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