3/24–Start Your Day Off Right Series

3/24–What are you achieving?

!

I read recently about a speech by columnist William Raspberry who told the story of a Chicago teacher with a class full of incorrigible sixth-graders.

She was so sure of their mental deficiency that she sneaked a peek in the principal’s files at their IQ scores.

And she was shocked to see stellar scores in the 120 and 130 range. The worst kid in the class had a 145.

She changed her whole approach. She gave the class challenging assignments, piled on the homework and cracked down on misbehavior.

At the end of the year, when the principal congratulated her on the students’ success, she confessed to looking at the files. And the principal informed her that she hadn’t seen IQ scores. She saw locker numbers.

The power of expectations.

Let’s pay each other the high compliment of great expectations.

With the power of the Holy Spirit and a word of encouragement–the potential in us is unlimited.

Scripture:

Philippians 4:13

I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

Can Others Safely Follow In Your Footsteps?

A mother from Costa Mesa, California told about the day her little three-year old son was on her heels wherever she went. She was having trouble doing her routine chores.

She said, “Whenever I stopped to do something and turned back around I would trip over him. Several times I suggested fun activities to keep him occupied, but he would just smile and say, ‘That’s alright Mommie, I’d rather be in here with you.’ He continued to follow me and after the fifth trip my patience wore thin and I asked him why he was following me constantly.”

He said, “My Sunday school teacher told me to walk in Jesus’ footsteps but I can’t see Him so I’m walking in yours.”

When your son or daughter sees how God is meeting the needs in your life he or she can then follow in your footsteps and invite God to meet the needs in his or her life as well.

How To Be Subject To The Potter

youtube.com/watch

Jeremiah 18:1-4

The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, Arise, and go down to the potter’s house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words. Then I went down to the potter’s house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels. And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.

Story:

3/23–The story is told of a chaplain in the war who saw a soldier with one arm. He later discovered that the young man had heroically pushed another soldier out of harm’s way and had taken the full brunt of an explosion himself.

The chaplain tried to console him, “You lost your arm for a great cause.” The soldier quickly corrected the chaplain by saying, “Not quite. I did not lose my arm for a great cause – I gave my arm for a great cause.”

In a similar manner, Jesus shoved us off of the cross, took the full brunt of sin’s debt, and gave his life as a ransom for us. No greater sacrifice has ever been given.

Scripture:

Hebrews 11:33-40

Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment: They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented; (Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.

And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise: God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.

If You Fill Up On Junk You Won’t Be Hungry

Filling up on Junk—

Filling up on junk– If I am coming home to a good home cooked meal, how hungry will I be if I stop off at a convenience stop and have a soft drink, chips, and a candy bar?

Probably not very hungry at all. That’s why we can’t learn some of the good things of life, we are too full of the trivial, meaningless things to get to absorb the better.

I’m like a dried old sponge, ready to soak it up. If a sponge is so dry that it is brittle and ready for the garbage, just a little water can bring it back to life.

Unity Makes a Big Difference In A Church

youtube.com/watch

Unity makes a difference!

Psalms 133

A SONG OF DEGREES OF DAVID.

Behold, how good and how pleasant it is

for brethren to dwell together in unity

It is like the precious ointment upon the head,

that ran down upon the beard,

even Aaron’s beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;

As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descendedfer upon the mountains of Zion:

for there the LORD commanded the blessing,

even life for evermore.

3/22–Start Your Day Off Right Series

Quote:

3/22–A wise man once said “If a man’s heart is good,….Nothing else matters. And if a man’s heart is bad,….Nothing else matters.”

Story:

I heard a great story recently — I love telling it — of a little girl who was in a drawing lesson. She was six, and she was at the back, drawing, and the teacher said this girl hardly ever paid attention, and in this drawing lesson, she did. The teacher was fascinated.She went over to her, and she said, “What are you drawing?” And the girl said, “I’m drawing a picture of God.” And the teacher said, “But nobody knows what God looks like.” And the girl said, “They will, in a minute.”

Scripture:

Mark 10:14

But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.

Humor:

A family of five was rushed to the hospital to have their stomachs washed out after the cat with whom they had shared a meal of mushrooms suddenly began to have stomach contractions. While members of the family showed no signs of illness, the doctor still had them rushed to the hospital. When they returned home they found the cat feeling well, after having produced five kittens.
