Bed? No! Church? Yes!

This is the day that the Lord hath made. . .

Go to church and check Him out.

Nice Doggie

Heaven goes by favor; if it went by merit,

you would stay out and your dog would go in.

Mark Twain

Sweet or Sour?

If you heard it through the grapevine -
Was it something sweet? Or something sour?
Remember to glean from only those who offer good fruit,
and let those who offer bitter fruit alone.

Beware of the Evil Twins

Nothing stirs as easily as Fear,
. . .and Cruelty, his darker twin,
awakens soon after!

What a powerful statement by an unknown author. It is something that we normally don't like to think on; however, there is much truth in these words. Fear is a horrible thing. When it begins to stir and our spirit is off guard, it will cause us to act in an unbecoming, Cruel manner. And all of a sudden we find ourselves captives to the evil twins of destruction, Fear and Cruelty.

Please dear Lord, help me to soar with the eagles and not find myself nesting with the vultures.

Be On the Watch

Watch your thoughts.....for they become words.

Watch your words.....for they become actions.
Watch your actions.....for they become habits.

Watch your habits.....for they become character.
Watch your character.....for it becomes your destiny.

Casting Stones?

He that is without sin let him cast the first stone.

Lord, please never let me be judgmental of another, for my duty as one of Yours is only to love and care about others. It is You only that must judge their lives and motives.

Plant Wisely

If you plant honesty, you will reap trust

If you plant goodness, you will reap friends

If you plant humility, you will reap greatness

If you plant perseverance, you will reap contentment

If you plant consideration, you will reap perspective

If you plant hard work, you will reap success

If you plant forgiveness, you will reap reconciliation

If you plant faith in God , you will reap a harvest

Therefore, we must be careful what we plant now as it will determine what we will reap later.

Peace Be With / In You

To be at one with God is to be at peace ...

peace is to be found only within, and unless

one finds it there he will never find it at all.

Peace lies not in the external world.

It lies within one's own soul.

Ralph Waldo Trine

What?

All I can say is that he's quite a creative "dude".

Concentrating

Today I plan to ignore the things around me,

and concentrate on the Lord.

Think Happy!

Today's not the day to cry over spilt milk.

Why? Because it doesn’t do any good to be

unhappy about something that has already

happened or that can’t be helped

Guide My Feet

This old African-American Spiritual reflects my feelings today. How about you?

Guide my feet Lord, while I run this race,
Guide my feet Lord, while I run this race,
Guide my feet while I run this race,
'cause I don't want to run this race in vain.

He Is My Solid Rock

When you have come to the edge of all the light you have - and step into the darkness of the unknown - believe that one of the two will happen to you - either you'll find something solid to stand on - or you'll be taught how to fly!

Richard Bach

Cool Music on a Hot Day

May 16 my granddaughters had their piano recital. It was held in a church that had no air conditioning so they played in 100 degree temperatures. That's pretty hot for their area where temps are normally in the 80s. However Madi & Cassie were real troupers and met the challenge.

Cassidy

Also, included a picture of Cassidy as the female Paul Revere (i.e., Sybil Ludington) to use in a school report.
