Tuesday October 2, 2012 thought for the day

HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY

1-To be touched by the true spirit of Christmas is to be kissed by God-

2-Give to those in need, for some day you may benefit from the kindness of someone who does likewise-

3-Faith is a gift from God that he makes available to anyone who wants it-

4-Love cannot be measured, bought or sold, for it to be valued at all it must be given away freely-

5-Don't confuse the will of the majority with the will of God-

 

STRANGE THOUGHT-Furniture disease is when your chest starts sliding down into your drawers-

 

I'VE LEARNED-Unforgiveness is choosing to stay trapped in a jail cell of bitterness, serving time for someone else's crime-

 

DID YOU KNOW-At any given time, there are eighteen hundred thunderstorms in progress over the earth's atmosphere-

 

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

1-How many times did Jesus do a "miracle meal"?

2-What did the Pharisees hate most about Jesus?

3-If Jesus couldn't convince his skeptics of who he was, how can we ever hope to convince others who Jesus is?

4-When Jesus performed a miracle, whose power did he use, his own or that of this father?

5-Why did one man receive two touches from Jesus before he was healed?

 

BIBLE TRIVIA-Who had two daughters who got him drunk and committed incest?

Yesterday's answer-Mary Magdalene

 

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY   John 1:43-46

 

⁴³ The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. He found Philip and said to him, "Follow me."

 ⁴⁴ Philip was from the town of Bethsaida, where Andrew and Peter lived.⁴⁵ Philip found Nathanael and told him, "We have found the man that Moses wrote about in the law, and the prophets also wrote about him. He is Jesus, the son of Joseph, from Nazareth."

 ⁴⁶ But Nathanael said to Philip, "Can anything good come from Nazareth?"

   Philip answered, "Come and see."

PRAYER FOR TODAY

Father, we are surrounded by Your awesome works and the endless display of Your divine handiwork. The entire universe is in perfect order which is a testimony to Your greatness and continued watchful eye over all of Your creation. The silent heavens speak as they declare Your majesty and glory. They also testify to Your righteousness and faithfulness as the Lord who created them and gave them a purpose for existence.  May we, as Your human creation, also proclaim Your righteousness and faithfulness day after day. May our lives display the work of the Holy Spirit as we continue to grow in faith until the day of Christ’s return. Amen.

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