There Is Right Way To Make Your Point

A member of a certain Church, who previously had been attending meetings regularly, stopped going.  After a few weeks, an elder decided to visit him.

It was a chilly evening.  The elder found the man at home alone, sitting before a blazing fire.  Guessing the reason for the elder’s visit, the man welcomed him, led him to a big chair near the fireplace and waited.

The elder made himself comfortable but said nothing.  In the grave silence, he contemplated the play of the flames around the burning logs.  

After some minutes, the elder took the fire tongs, carefully picked up a brightly burning ember and placed it to one side of the hearth all alone.

Then he sat back in his chair, still silent.  The host watched all this in quiet fascination.  As the one lone ember’s flame diminished, there was a momentary glow and then its fire was no more.  Soon it was cold and “dead as a doornail.”  

Not a word had been spoken since the initial greeting.  Just before the elder was ready to leave, he picked up the cold, dead ember and placed it back in the middle of the fire.

Immediately it began to glow once more with the light and warmth of the burning coals around it.  As the elder reached the door to leave, his host said,  “Thank you so much for your visit and especially for the fiery lesson.  I shall be back at the Church next Sunday.”

Your Salvation Is Too Great To Neglect!

Do not neglect your Salvation!

Hebrews 2:1-3

Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward; How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;

Quote:

People are changed not from your opinion but by your example!

Story:

I’m just a plow hand from Arkansas, but I have learned how to hold a team together. How to lift some men up, how to calm down others, until finally they’ve got one heartbeat together, a team.

There’s just three things I’d ever say: If anything goes bad, I did it. If anything goes semi-good, then we did it. If anything goes real good, then you did it. That’s all it takes to get people to win football games for you.

Bear Bryant.

There is no limit to what a man can do or where he can go, if he doesn’t care who gets the credit.

Can You Spare A Minute 9/5?

youtube.com/shorts/qdulOt6jERo

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

9/5–Can You Spare A Minute?

–9/5–We might liken it to letting go of a bell rope. If you have ever seen an old school house with a bell on top, or an old church with a bell in the steeple, you will remember that to get the bell ringing you have to tug awhile.

Once it has begun to ring, you merely maintain the momentum. As long as you keep pulling, the bell keeps ringing.

Forgiveness is letting go of the rope. It is just that simple. But when you do so, the bell keeps ringing. Momentum is still at work.

However, if you keep your hands off the rope, the bell will begin to slow and eventually stop. The unforgiving spirit will begin to slow, and will eventually be still. Forgiveness is not something you feel, it is something you do. It is letting go of the rope.

Don’t Be On The Me Channel

The Me channel is a boring channel. The Us channel is much more fulfilling. 

It is amazing how much richer and fuller life is when you get your mind off yourself and think rather on others. When you help other people, you cannot help getting help yourself. 

If I fill your cup to overflow then I should have some of it spill over on me. 

Personally, I am happier when I think about others and try to help as many as I can. It may be true that a taker may eat better in this life, but a giver will sleep better.”

9/4–Start Your Day Off Right Series 9/4

Quote:

Never forget a friend, and never let a friend forget you.

Story:

Criticizing is a little man’a tactics. It takes a big man to refrain from criticizing. Belittling others shows just how small you and your thinking really are.

I’m not much for bragging or boasting it on myself but I am pretty generous to brag on others.

A big man is not afraid of making others bigger. He doesn’t see it as a threat to his bigness. A big man doesn’t feel like he has to cut you down to make him feel bigger.

When you find the good in people and sincerely complement them you show to me your bigness and your greatness.

Philippians 2: 3-4. Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.

If I put you higher than me and you put me higher than you then we will be equal! It does nothing for me to see others fail or not do good. It does not add anything to my success or stature. Bringing down others doesn’t lift me up any.

Some people’s whole outlook is trying to find something wrong with someone. They have looked for the wrong so long the good seems to be hid from them. It takes a trained eye to look for the good and be able to spot it. It might take a little practice before you’re able to see the good if you’ve always looked for the bad.

Little minded people major in the minor! They take some little insignificant point and blow it up into something that it is really not.

Some people are merely legends in their own minds. They have nominated themselves and voted for themselves but nobody else paid any attention. Their continual criticizing others is part of them trying to get attention even though they’re going about it the wrong way.

Can You Spare A Minute 9/4?

youtube.com/shorts/-JIwE01kF1w

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

9/4– Can You Spare A Minute?

9/4–Imagine you had a bank account that deposited $86,400 each morning. The account carries over no balance from day to day, allows you to keep no cash balance, and every evening cancels whatever part of the amount you had failed to use during the day. What would you do? Draw out every dollar each day!

We all have such a bank. Its name is Time. Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds. Every night it writes off, as lost, whatever time you have failed to use wisely. It carries over no balance from day to day. It allows no overdraft so you can’t borrow against yourself or use more time than you have. Each day, the account starts fresh. Each night, it destroys an unused time. If you fail to use the day’s deposits, it’s your loss and you can’t appeal to get it back.

There is never any borrowing time. You can’t take a loan out on your time or against someone else’s. The time you have is the time you have and that is that. Time management is yours to decide how you spend the time, just as with money you decide how you spend the money. It is never the case of us not having enough time to do things, but the case of whether we want to do them and where they fall in our priorities.

You Have Seeds Of Greatness Within You

You have ability to do things within you that you can’t even begin to imagine! 

You have talents and skills within you that you haven’t even began to reach for yet! 

When the end comes for you let it find you climbing up a new mountain not sliding down an old one. 

How sad to reach the point of death only realizing that you have never really lived! You realize that you have never even scraped the surface of your potential! 

To reach your dreams you must have a plan of action, be relentless, have a dream, and let nothing stop you!!

Young Men Have A Pattern Of Good Works

youtube.com/watch

Titus 2:1-8

But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine: That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience. The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.

Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded. In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity, Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.
