Cast Down Every Wicked Imagination

Imagination, to me, is the biggest nation in the world!

2 Cor 10:5,6. Casting down imaginations, and Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.

What Really Matters In Life 

Mexican Fisherman Meets Harvard MBA What Really Matters in Life? A vacationing American businessman standing on the pier of a quaint coastal fishing village in southern Mexico watched as a small boat with just one young Mexican fisherman pulled into the dock. Inside the small boat were several large yellowfin tuna. Enjoying the warmth of the early afternoon sun the American complimented the Mexican on the quality of his fish. How long did it take you to catch them?” the American casually asked. Oh, a few hours,” the Mexican fisherman replied.

Why don’t you stay out longer and catch more fish?” the American businessman then asked. The Mexican warmly replied, “With this I have more than enough to support my family’s needs.” The businessman then became serious, “But what do you do with the rest of your time?” 

Responding with a smile, the Mexican fisherman answered, “I sleep late, play with my children, watch ballgames, and take siesta with my wife. Sometimes in the evenings I take a stroll into the village to see my friends, play the guitar, sing a few songs…” 

The American businessman impatiently interrupted, “Look, I have an MBA from Harvard, and I can help you to be more profitable. You can start by fishing several hours longer every day. You can then sell the extra fish you catch. With the extra money, you can buy a bigger boat. With the additional income that larger boat will bring, before long you can buy a second boat, then a third one, and so on, until you have an entire fleet of fishing boats.” Proud of his own sharp thinking, he excitedly elaborated a grand scheme which could bring even bigger profits, “Then, instead of selling your catch to a middleman you’ll be able to sell your fish directly to the processor, or even open your own cannery. Eventually, you could control the product, processing and distribution. You could leave this tiny coastal village and move to Mexico City, or possibly even Los Angeles or New York City, where you could even further expand your business.

Scripture:

Ephesians 3:20-21

Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

Humor:

After church on Sundays, the priest always sees parishioners in private. This Sunday, Mary came to him in tears.

“What happened?” asked the priest?

“Oh father, last evening my husband died.”

“That’s terrible! Did your husband have any last wishes?”

“Yes he did.”

“What did he say?”

“I beg of you, Mary. Put down the gun!”

Your Perspective Makes All The Difference

Charles Francis Adams, 19th century political figure and diplomat, kept a diary. One day he entered: “Went fishing with my son today–a day wasted.” His son, Brook Adams, also kept a diary, which is still in existence. 

On that same day, Brook Adams made this entry: “Went fishing with my father–the most wonderful day of my life!” The father thought he was wasting his time while fishing with his son, but his son saw it as an investment of time. The only way to tell the difference between wasting and investing is to know one’s ultimate purpose in life and to judge accordingly.  

Extracting The Precious From The Worthless

Extracting the precious from the worthless..If you can have and develop this talent in life, you will be a very valuable person. 

Jesus told Lazurus to come forth. When others saw something worthless and of no use but to bury, Jesus saw life….precious life. There are plenty of people that have something precious hidden inside that almost no one (including themselves) can see. 

Oh, to be able to see and recognize these precious jewels. People that the world has turned its back on . Maybe that person is a teacher or a friend, or whatever relationship.

I knew a man who would talk to me like I was indeed someone special. He wasn’t related, just a friend. He knew how to bring out the best in me. Do you bring out the best in people, or the worst? 

There are people, who seemingly, cannot carry on a good conversation, but can sing like angels. There are people we have known, probably for some time, who have a great talent, or story…but we don’t know because we didn’t go deep enough. 

We are too concerned about ourselves to find out about others…their needs, talents, and many things they have to contribute. 

Heroes who look like ordinary people. There is a hero in every one of us, it just has to be awakened!

Stories:

 A missionary society wrote to David Livingstone and asked, “Have you found a good road to where you are? If so, we want to know how to send other men to join you.” 

Livingstone wrote back, “If you have men who will come only if they know there is a good road, I don’t want them. I want men who will come if there is no road at all.”  

Good News Broadcaster, April, 1985, p. 12.

Scripture:

2 Timothy 2:2

And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

“CAUGHT IN THE ACTS

Sister Deena had just returned home from Sunday evening service when she was star “startled by a burglar. With great biblical authority she yelled, “Stop! Acts 2:38!”, which implies “Turn from your sin.”

The thief stopped dead in his tracks. Then the woman calmly called the police and explained what she had done.

As the officer cuffed the man, he asked the burglar, “Why did you stop”

“your burgling? All the old lady did was yell a Bible verse at you.”

“Bible verse?” replied the crook. “She said she had an ax and two .38s!”

Can You Spare A Minute Or So 6/7?

If you can’t find five minutes, can you spare two or three?

6/7– Can you Spare A Minute?

I have written a lot lately about animals and insects because they are so amazing. When they come to earth they are hardwired with what they need. Nobody tells the birds that it’s time to fly south for the winter. They just come with the knowledge that they need.

Man, when he arrives on the other hand, only knows how to cry when he is hungry and not much else. Everything else is learned.

I know there’s many versions of the eagle and the chicken but I will tell the version that I know. An eagle’s egg got mixed up with some chicken eggs. It hatched out with some of the other chickens. Since the eagle couldn’t see himself he thought that he was a chicken. He pecked on the ground and only jumped a few feet. He imitated everything he saw  his brothers and sisters do. 

One day, while outside with his mother, he saw a  majestic eagle fly above them. He wished so much that he could do that and fly so high. He told his mother that he would give about anything to be an eagle and be able to fly that high! She told him that he was a chicken and would always be a chicken.

You could be an eagle if you wouldn’t be so much of a chicken!!

The Right Way To Get Back At Someone

Tomas Borge was a leader in the struggle against the totalitarian regime that had dominated his country, Nicaragua. During the revolution, Borge was captured and put in prison. While there he was subjected to the most extreme torture for over 500 hours.

After the revolution Borge was freed and become the Minister of the Interior. One day he found one of his torturers in jail. He walked up to this man who had inflicted such terrible, relentless and brutal pain upon him and said, “I am going to get my revenge from you”. He then held out his hand and said, “This is my revenge, I forgive you.”
