Sunday April 14, 2013 thought for the day



HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY
1-A test of maturity is the ability to get more satisfaction from keeping a secret than passing it on-
2-Prove all things, hold fast that which is good-
3-The way to love anything is to realize it might be lost-
4-Every day may not be a good day, but there is something good in every day-
5-Never let your comforts overcome your convictions-
 
STRANGE THOUGHT-This is your life, are you who you want to be?
 
I'VE LEARNED-We must choose-Do we believe our advocate or our accuser?
 
DID YOU KNOW-Surprisingly, when leaving their nests for the first time, chicks are very rarely hurt after falling to the ground-
 
5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW
1-Who were the "false teachers" that Peter referred to in 2 Peter?
2-What is a Gnostic?
3-How does the physical and spiritual world relate to each other?
4-Can people do whatever they please and it not affect their spirituality?
5-How much pleasure should Christians seek?
 
BIBLE TRIVIA-What priest led a movement in which the people tore down the Baal altars and killed Mattan,  the priest of Baal?
Yesterday's answer-Exodus  34:13
 
SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY    John 21:20-25
20 Peter turned and saw that the follower Jesus loved was walking behind them. (This was the follower who had leaned against Jesus at the supper and had said, “Lord, who will turn against you?”) 21 When Peter saw him behind them, he asked Jesus, “Lord, what about him?”
22 Jesus answered, “If I want him to live until I come back, that is not your business. You follow me.”
23 So a story spread among the followers that this one would not die. But Jesus did not say he would not die. He only said, “If I want him to live until I come back, that is not your business.”
24 That follower is the one who is telling these things and who has now written them down. We know that what he says is true.
25 There are many other things Jesus did. If every one of them were written down, I suppose the whole world would not be big enough for all the books that would be written.

PRAYER FOR TODAY
Praying man Father, Your grace abounds like a fountain that never exhausts its flow. We testify to the gospel of Your grace as it overflows into every area of our being. It refreshes, forgives, ignites, strengthens, fortifies, and sets our hearts ablaze with the fire of the Holy Spirit. Where would we be and what would our future hold without Your amazing grace? We shudder to imagine life without Your ever-present, all-sufficient grace. We proclaim to all the world that Your grace is available to all who call upon the name of Jesus. It is in His name that we pray. Amen.

I WISH YOU LOVE IN YOUR HEART.....PEACE IN YOUR SOUL.....AND JOY IN YOUR LIFE.....ALWAYS!!!
