1-Miracles happen not when you receive but when you first believe-

2-You learn humility by surviving failures-

3-Tragedy is not what we suffer but what we miss-

5-People have a tendency to become what you expect them to be-

STRANGE THOUGHT-I told my family I never want to depend on a machine and fluids to keep me alive...that's when they took away my computer and coffee maker!

I'VE LEARNED-People who change the world don't play follow the leader-

DID YOU KNOW-The slang word crap comes from T. Crapper, the man who invented the modern toilet-(aren't you glad to know that)-

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY 1 PETER 1:17-21

¹⁷ You pray to God and call him Father, and he judges each person's work equally. So while you are here on earth, you should live with respect for God.¹⁸ You know that in the past you were living in a worthless way, a way passed down from the people who lived before you. But you were saved from that useless life. You were bought, not with something that ruins like gold or silver,¹⁹ but with the precious blood of Christ, who was like a pure and perfect lamb.²⁰ Christ was chosen before the world was made, but he was shown to the world in these last times for your sake.²¹ Through Christ you believe in God, who raised Christ from the dead and gave him glory. So your faith and your hope are in God.

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