What will today be like?

February 28

Did you have a bed to sleep on?

Did you have something to eat and drink?

Do you have a place with plumbing?

Have you something fun or meaningful to do this day?

If so You are living a blessed life my friend.

"I have learned in whatever state I'm in to be content."(Phillipians 4:11)

You will have a blessed day...guarenteed

February 27

Think of all the blessings that are free that we take for granted everyday:

The air we breath, the sun that provides light and warmth, we can love,

we can hear, we have sight and we have memory all at no charge,

we have the start of a new day absolutely free. Enjoy it.


"This is the day the Lord has made let us be glad and rejoice in it." (Psalm 118:24)

Words of Wisdom

February 24

"He who gives to the poor will not lack." Proverbs 28:27

knock and it will be open to you." (Matthew 7:7)

"Trust in the Lord and lean not on your own understanding."

Worth Noting

February 23

"Anyone ever kicked by an elephant?" No one raises a hand. Then the speaker asks, "Anyone ever stung by a bee?" Several hand go up. Then the speaker says, "The little things will get you everytime."

There is a syaing; "Don't sweat the small stuff..........and its all small stuff."

Joy and I try to remember this in our marriage and one of us will remind the other by saying
"small stuff." This prevents little things from becoming big things.

"Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things."
(1 Corinthians 14:4)

Presidents Day Message

February 18

When Dwight Eisenhower was our President (ok you don't remember) I was
a student at the University of Rhode Island. One summer we received word
he would be visiting the campus. Several of us gathered along a campus road
to greet his small caravan. He was sitting in an open car when a man yelled
"hey Ike" and tossed a golf ball towards him. A secret service agent leaped into 
the air catching the ball. He was willing to give up his life in serving our
president.

Are we willing to do the same for our Savior?

"Whoever wants to save his life shall lose it, but whoever loses his life for me
me and for the Gospel will save it." Mark 8:35

Prayer Does Work

 

February 17

 

Shivering in bed with a fever it hits me. I’m under attack. Of course! The enemy doesn’t want this meeting tomorrow to happen. I’m to facilitate Vision Day for a Christian organization serving the poor. Joy and I pray for a recovery and strength. 

God is faithful. The next morning I feel better. People applaud as I walk into the room. The happiest to see me is the director and his wife who also had prayed.

 

“I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven.”(Matthew 18:19)
