Quote:

3/26–Everyday!



Story:

The story is told of Franklin Roosevelt, who often endured long receiving lines at the White House.

He complained that no one really paid any attention to what was said.

One day, during a reception, he decided to try an experiment. To each person who passed down the line and shook his hand, he murmured, “I murdered my grandmother this morning.” The guests responded with phrases like, “Marvelous! Keep up the good work. We are proud of you. God bless you, sir.”

It was not till the end of the line, while greeting the ambassador from Bolivia, that his words were actually heard. Nonplussed, the ambassador leaned over and whispered, “I’m sure she had it coming.”

Scripture:

Revelation 2:7

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.

Story:

3/25–The story is told of a man who made every effort to be a great father to his young son, Billy. He took his son to a carnival with four of his friends.

As any dad would do, he pulled a wad of cash out of his pocket and purchased dozens of tickets for the carnival rides. At every ride, five little hands were thrust into the air to claim the required ticket.

At the end of the day, the father noticed a sixth hand protruding into the air hoping for a ticket. The father asked, “Son, who are you?”

The little fellow replied, “I’m your son’s new friend and I know him. He said that if I know your son, I get a ticket.” Of course, he got a ticket.

Ah – such wisdom.

When you know the Son of the Father, you get whatever the Father has. He has given us eternal life – because we know His Son.

Got your ticket?

Scripture:

Galatians 4:6-7

And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

Story:

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.
