Monday June 6, 2011 thought for the day

HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY

1-When God takes control of the man of the house, the home is never the same again-

2-If you could be saved and not know it, you could be lost and not miss it-

3-Hurt people hurt people-

4-Our attitude tells others what we expect in return-

5-You can't call God what you don't know him to be-

STRANGE THOUGHT-I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger-

I'VE LEARNED-Just because two people argue does not mean they don't love each other. Just because two people don't argue does not mean they do love each other-

DID YOU KNOW-Grapes explode when put in the microwave-

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

1-Does God ever give us time in which to do nothing?

2-Why have so many Christians seem to have lost their joy?

3-Should we always be content in the place God has placed us?

4-What does it mean "Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give"?

5-God says we should tithe but does he expect more?

BIBLE TRIVIA-Which gospel records Jesus saying "Remember Lot's wife"?

Yesterday's answer-Twice 2 Corinthians 11, 1 Timothy 2:13

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY Philippians 4:10-23

Paul Thanks the Christians

¹⁰ I am very happy in the Lord that you have shown your care for me again. You continued to care about me, but there was no way for you to show it.¹¹ I am not telling you this because I need anything. I have learned to be satisfied with the things I have and with everything that happens.¹² I know how to live when I am poor, and I know how to live when I have plenty. I have learned the secret of being happy at any time in everything that happens, when I have enough to eat and when I go hungry, when I have more than I need and when I do not have enough.¹³ I can do all things through Christ, because he gives me strength.

¹⁴ But it was good that you helped me when I needed it.¹⁵ You Philippians remember when I first preached the Good News there. When I left Macedonia, you were the only church that gave me help.¹⁶ Several times you sent me things I needed when I was in Thessalonica.¹⁷ Really, it is not that I want to receive gifts from you, but I want you to have the good that comes from giving.¹⁸ And now I have everything, and more. I have all I need, because Epaphroditus brought your gift to me. It is like a sweet-smelling sacrifice offered to God, who accepts that sacrifice and is pleased with it.¹⁹ My God will use his wonderful riches in Christ Jesus to give you everything you need.²⁰ Glory to our God and Father forever and ever! Amen.

²¹ Greet each of God's people in Christ Jesus. Those who are with me send greetings to you. ²² All of God's people greet you, particularly those from the palace of Caesar.

²³ The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

PRAYER FOR TODAY

ALMIGHTY God, I entrust all who are dear to me to your never-failing care and love, for this life and the life to come; knowing that are doing for them better things than I can desire or pray for; through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

GREATLY BLESSED, HIGHLY FAVORED, IMPERFECT BUT FORGIVEN CHILD OF GOD!!!
