If The Lord Says Run, Walking Won’t Do

Story:
Goals— It is almost impossible to reach a goal if you can’t even see it. The chances of reaching a goal is more impossible if you don’t have one.
You have to start somewhere to get anywhere. Try starting with small, easy to define goals at first.
A journey of a thousand miles started with that first mile. Most things, at least the good things, don’t happen by accident.
Sticks and Stones—may break my bones, but words can never hurt me. I don’t see that as entirely true. Words can hurt, probably more than the sticks and stones. The sticks and stones hurt for a little while, but words may hurt always. Once you shoot the arrow, it won’t return to the bow. Make sure you really want to hurt the other person, very sure. When you see the results it might rain on your victory parade.
Responsibilities– I remember what my children look like. I will never forget. But, I have pictures of them in my office to remind myself that there are people depending on me. If I fail, not only will it hurt me, but plenty of others. It is just that little edge that gets me over what’s in my way.
People won’t listen to your talk if your walk speaks so loud it drowns out what you are saying— I remember an episode of Andy Griffith show where Barney wanted to sing with the choir. Problem was, his off key voice messed up the rest of the talented singers. They (Andy I think) gave him a microphone and told him it was so powerful that he need only whisper. His mic was turned off and the real sound was coming from a singer backstage.
If you aren’t real, people will turn Your microphone (you) off. You won’t have a voice that speaks anything to anyone. People are looking for the real deal and not a phony. Most people can see right through an insincere phony.

Scripture:
Philippians 4:8
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
Humor:
There’s a man sitting at a bar just looking at his drink. He stays like that for half an hour. Then, a big trouble-making truck driver steps next to him, takes the drink from the guy, and just drinks it all down.
Q
The poor man starts crying. The truck driver says, “Come on man, I was just joking. Here, I’ll buy you another drink. I just can’t stand seeing a man crying.”
“No, it’s not that. This day is the worst of my life. First, I fall asleep, and I’m late to my office. My boss, in an outrage, fires me. When I leave the building to my car, I found out it was stolen. The police say they can do nothing. I get a cab to return home and when I leave it, I remember I left my wallet and credit cards there. The cab driver just drives away. I go home and when I get there, my wife kicks me out. I leave home and come to this bar. And when I was thinking about putting an end to my life, you show up and drink my poison.”
