Tuesday August 17, 2010 thought for the day

HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY
1-Praise given to us should be deflected back to God-
2-You don't talk love, you live love-
3-Repentance doesn't save you but you can't be saved without it-
4-Look through, not at-
5-What we worry about becomes our master-
STRANGE THOUGHT-You will never stub your toe by standing still-
I'VE LEARNED-The evidence of the presence of Jesus in our life is that we are kind to the less fortunate-
DID YOU KNOW-Charles Dickens never finished his schooling-
5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW
1-Was Melchizedek a real human being?
2-Could Melchizedek have been Christ?
3-Why did Abraham give Melchizedek a tithe (10%) of all his goods?
4-Why does the book of Hebrews say that Melchizedek had no father, mother,genealogy, no beginning or ending of days, is a priest forever?
5-Why does the book of Hebrews say that Jesus is according to the order of Melchizedek?
BIBLE TRIVIA-What woman with a cumbersome name was the Hittite wife of Esau?
Yesterday's answer-Aholibah
SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY LUKE 4:38-44
38 Jesus left the synagogue and went to the home of Simon.a]">[a] Simon's mother-in-law was sick with a high fever, and they asked Jesus to help her.39 He came to her side and commanded the fever to leave. It left her, and immediately she got up and began serving them.

40 When the sun went down, the people brought those who were sick to Jesus. Putting his hands on each sick person, he healed every one of them.41 Demons came out of many people, shouting, "You are the Son of God." But Jesus commanded the demons and would not allow them to speak, because they knew Jesus was the Christ.

42 At daybreak, Jesus went to a lonely place, but the people looked for him. When they found him, they tried to keep him from leaving. 43 But Jesus said to them, "I must preach about God's kingdom to other towns, too. This is why I was sent."

44 Then he kept on preaching in the synagogues of Judea.b]">[b]

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