Can You Spare A Minute 7/27?

https://youtube.com/shorts/vDt63jc0_kg?is=_uBB3SurteU1cQ8F

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

Once there were three trees standing on the hillside. There was an oak tree on one side and a pine tree on the other side and then in the middle was a little cedar tree.       

One day a mighty storm came through and blew  and the mighty oak tree slid down the hill. The wind kept blowing and in a little while  the pine tree slid down the hill. But when the wind finally stopped blowing, the cedar tree was left standing. 

The people of that area began to wonder how it was that the cedar tree survived.      They got a their shovels and started digging down and they dug and dug ….down until they saw why the cedar stood while bigger and mightier trees slid down the hill. Its roots has wrapped themselves  around a big huge rock under the ground. 

So when the winds of the storms and the spiritual storms blow  if you wrap your roots around the Spiritual Rock which is Christ Jesus, you can stand even the mightiest of storms!!

I couldn’t decide whether to go to Salt Lake City or Denver for vacation, so I called the airlines to get prices. “Airfare to Denver is $300,” the cheery salesperson replied. “And what about Salt Lake City?” “We have a really great rate to Salt Lake—$99,” she said “But there is a stopover.” “Where?” “In Denver,” she said.

The Lessons Of The Bottled Water

Bottled water, a concept I thought was utterly ridiculous when I first heard about. Never happen, I thought. Why should I buy something coming out at my sink freely? But it did happen, and is happening. I buy it and people all over the world do.

Has satan ever presented a thought to you and you thought, never happen….but it did. People have married and never thought trouble would come to their home, but satan worked his way in.He can even take the ridiculous and make it seem like that’s the way it is supposed to be.

Churches split when harmony and unity flowed like nothing could ever stop it. Satan is pictured in red suit, with horns, and a tail and a pitchfork. No, my friend, he is the slickest, smothest salesman of all time!

The Lessons Of The Four Lepers

https://youtu.be/AHWPmEZiDBc?is=NuY7-mbAEBl10nsk

There is a lot to learn from the lepers!

2 Kings 7:1-16

Then Elisha said, Hear ye the word of the LORD; Thus saith the LORD, To morrow about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria. Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, Behold, if the LORD would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.
And there were four leprous men at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die? If we say, We will enter into the city, then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit still here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us fall unto the host of the Syrians: if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die. And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of the Syrians: and when they were come to the uttermost part of the camp of Syria, behold, there was no man there. For the Lord had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host: and they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us. Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life. And when these lepers came to the uttermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and did eat and drink, and carried thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went and hid it; and came again, and entered into another tent, and carried thence also, and went and hid it. Then they said one to another, We do not well: this day is a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace: if we tarry till the morning light, some mischief will come upon us: now therefore come, that we may go and tell the king’s household. So they came and called unto the porter of the city: and they told them, saying, We came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, there was no man there, neither voice of man, but horses tied, and asses tied, and the tents as they were. And he called the porters; and they told it to the king’s house within.
And the king arose in the night, and said unto his servants, I will now shew you what the Syrians have done to us. They know that we be hungry; therefore are they gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying, When they come out of the city, we shall catch them alive, and get into the city. And one of his servants answered and said, Let some take, I pray thee, five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city, (behold, they are as all the multitude of Israel that are left in it: behold, I say, they are even as all the multitude of the Israelites that are consumed:) and let us send and see. They took therefore two chariot horses; and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see. And they went after them unto Jordan: and, lo, all the way was full of garments and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their haste. And the messengers returned, and told the king. And the people went out, and spoiled the tents of the Syrians. So a measure of fine flour was sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to the word of the LORD.

Have The Right Blueprint And The Right Perspective 

God says don’t build anything I haven’t given you a strategy for or a blueprint. God said if I give you a strategy or blue print that means I’m getting ready to use you! 

The only difference in you and the person you admire is this perspective they have on life! If you are disciplined in your perspective, you will be victorious in your outcome!! 

It is like going to the eye Doctor so

that you can see better. If you are not Thankful, then you need to get an Spiritual adjustment for your Spiritual eyesight!

One thing I do, that you might try, is putting a reminder on your phone, three times a day, to be more thankful.

Well, that’s pretty petty you might think, how could that work? Just try it for 21 days and see what it does, you may just get surprised!

Your perspective is critical to being an overcomer because it’s not what happens to you, it’s how you react to what happens to you that matters. Ability to manage problems is what separates the CEO from the janitor.

The higher up you go the more problems you will encounter and your ability to have the proper perspective under fire is critical and it takes much discipline. It takes discipline to remain cool and calm under fire.

Scripture:

Mark 8:22-25

And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to touch him. And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought. And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking. After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.

Can You Spare A Minute Or So 7/25?

https://youtube.com/shorts/iRhrsfJ8LXg?is=UL95wsL34fvujoA7

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

Robert Goodrich writes about an elderly gentleman, ambling through his garden, who overheard his granddaughter repeating the alphabet in an oddly reverent sort of way. “What on earth are you up to?” he asked her. The little girl explained, “I’m praying, Grandpa. I can’t think of exactly the right words, so I’m just saying all the letters, and God will put them together for me, cause He knows what I am thinking.”

Beware Of The Attitude Virus

In his book Understanding Business Values and Motivators, Dr. Ira Wolfe writes, “An ‘Attitude Virus’ seems to be everywhere…. We see the symptoms every day as rudeness, poor service, lack of motivation, and increased job stress…. Managers “feel the painful, long-term effects of the

Virus in employee turnover, lost productivity, customer complaints, and a drain on profits. But the greatest damage the Virus does is lowering workplace resistance to other ‘infections’ and causing healthy workers to seek escape to more healthy business environments.”

Dr. Wolfe notes that the Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine has diagnosed a workplace condition called “presenteeism”—being “at work” without being productive. “It’s like absenteeism, but worse,” he says, “because, with presenteeism, employees still show up and receive a full paycheck—but they disrupt and demoralize other workers while neglecting the work they are being paid to do. The cost of “presenteeism’ in the U.S. alone is estimated to be hundreds of billions of dollars, resulting in over 2.5 billion lost workdays per year.”

Excerpt From: Harrell, Keith. “Attitude is Everything Rev Ed.” HarperCollins. iBooks.

You Could Be An Eagle If You Weren’t Such A Chicken

https://youtu.be/f1hrKD_PMOY?is=e5a9CSubINHacVb4

Oh to be an Eagle!

Is 49:28-31

Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard,
that the everlasting God, the LORD,
the Creator of the ends of the earth,
fainteth not, neither is weary?
there is no searching of his understanding.
He giveth power to the faint;
and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.
Even the youths shall faint and be weary,
and the young men shall utterly fall:
But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings as eagles;
they shall run, and not be weary;
and they shall walk, and not faint.

STATISTICS AND STUFF

The “Coronary and Ulcer Club” lists the following rules for members… 

1. Your job comes first. Forget everything else. 

2. Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays are fine times to be working at the office. There will be nobody else there to bother you. 

3. Always have your briefcase with you when not at your desk. This provides an opportunity to review completely all the troubles and worries of the day. 

4. Never say “no” to a request. Always say “yes.” 

5. Accept all invitations to meetings, banquets, committees, etc. 

6. All forms of recreation are a waste of time. 

7. Never delegate responsibility to others; carry the entire load yourself. 

8. If your work calls for traveling, work all day and travel at night to keep that appointment you made for eight the next morning. 

9. No matter how many jobs you already are doing, remember you always can take on more.  

Bits & Pieces, January 7, 1993, pp. 9-10.

Scripture:

Matthew 6:31-34

Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

Mercy: The Strength Of Compassion

In a world where judgment comes quickly and harsh words are easy to speak, mercy is a rare and powerful gift. Mercy isn’t weakness. It’s strength under control. It’s choosing compassion when revenge feels justified. It’s offering grace when others may only offer criticism.

Mercy changes people. When someone deserves punishment or rebuke and instead receives kindness, it often melts even the hardest of hearts. Think about it: How many lives could be transformed if mercy was our first response, not our last resort?

Jesus said in Matthew 5:7, “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.” Mercy is not just something we give—it’s something we receive. When we extend it, we unlock a blessing in return. Mercy builds bridges. It heals relationships. It reveals the character of God living in us.

You might be struggling today with someone who hurt you or disappointed you. Mercy doesn’t mean ignoring justice, but it does mean choosing love over bitterness. It means remembering how much mercy you’ve received from God—and passing it on.

Today, make it your mission to show mercy. Speak gently. Forgive freely. Help someone who can never pay you back. Be the kind of person this world desperately needs: merciful, strong, and kind.

Mercy may not make headlines—but it will make heaven smile.
