8/23–Start Your Day Off Right Series

Quote:

Your life is shaped by the doors you walk through and those you walk past.

Story:

Are you a help today or are you one that hinders? You will either do one or the other to your Church, friends, and family. I hear people say all the time I’m not a help but I’m not a hindrance. Oh, yes you are! If you are not a help then you are a hindrance!

You cannot ride the fence you will fall off on one side or the other. You will fall to the help side or to the side that hinders.

I made the statement once that I wanted to leave the walks of this life the day I started hindering. As soon as I could, I told them I wanted to make a correction to that statement. I told them that I did not want to leave the day I started hindering but instead I wanted to leave the day before.

There are too many things that a person can do to help others that there should be no reason to ever think about hindering someone else.

Scripture:

James 1:6-8

But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

Humor:

A couple were dining out together celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary.

After the meal, the husband presented his wife romantically with a beautiful very old gold antique locket on a chain.

Amazingly when his wife opened the locket, a tiny fairy appeared.

Addressing the astonished couple, the fairy said, “Your forty years of devotion to each other has released me from this locket, and in return I can now grant you both one wish each – anything you want..”

Without hesitating, the wife asked, “Please, can I travel to the four corners of the world with my husband, as happy and in love as we’ve always been?”

The fairy waved her wand with a flourish, and magically there on the table were two first-class tickets for a round-the-world holiday.

Staggered, the couple looked at each other, unable to believe their luck.

“Your turn,” said the fairy and the wife to the husband.

The husband thought for a few seconds, and then said, with a little guilt in his voice, “Forgive me, but to really enjoy that holiday of a lifetime – I yearn for a younger woman – so I wish that my wife could be thirty years younger than me.”

Shocked, the fairy glanced at the wife, and with a knowing look in her eye, waved her wand…..

and the husband became ninety-three.

The Chaplain Who Moved The Fence

During World War I a Protestant chaplain with the American troops in Italy became a friend of a local Roman Catholic priest. In time, the chaplain who moved on with his unit was killed. 

The priest heard of his death and asked military authorities if the chaplain could be buried in the cemetery behind his church. 

Permission was granted. But the priest ran into a problem with his own Catholic Church authorities. They were sympathetic, but they said they could not approve the burial of a non-Catholic in a Catholic cemetery. So the priest buried his friend just outside the cemetery fence. 

Years later, a war veteran who knew what had happened returned to Italy and visited the old priest. The first thing he did was ask to see the chaplain’s grave. To his surprise, he found the grave inside the fence. “Ah,” he said, “I see you got permission to move the body.” “No,” said the priest. “They told me where I couldn’t bury the body. But nobody ever told me I couldn’t move the fence.”  

Bits & Pieces, November, 1989, p. 24.

Can You Spare A Minute 8/22?

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

8/22– Can You Spare A Minute?

8/22

Have you ever thought about having a personal, inner thermostat or regulator? If something goes wrong you know your thermostat, God will bring everything back in line.

It is like a checking account where you put in deposits and withdrawals. If you put a deposit amount that was actually a deduction you won’t balance or reconcile. If the Lord chastens you and you put on the withdrawal side you won’t balance or reconcile.

You must learn where to put things and make sure they are in perspective. It is like a wagon wheel it might be down at the moment but will roll right back up, if you will give it time.

So, You Think That You Are Having A Rough Day?

So, you’re having a rough day—  Who and what are you comparing it to?  You woke up this morning, millions didn’t.  

Did you sleep in a car last night, millions were homeless.  Did you have more good health than sickness?, so many don’t.  Do you have a bank account, food in a cabinet or refrigerator?

What to do when you are feeling sorry for yourself… Go to the hospital, nursing home, funeral home, junenile detention home (while there be glad your loved ones aren’t there).  Go visit some old folks and just listen, they don’t need you to say anything.  Have you still got your right mind?  I know several folks who don’t.  They were once smart, maybe smarter than you and me.

Pity Parties…Has anyone ever attended any you have had.  If they did I’m sure they didn’t stay long. If you have success with feeling sorry for yourself, go for it…as for me, count me out.  Even Job in the Bible, with all his troubles, was required to stand on his feet like a man.

Try to make someone else happy and  to feel important–There is not any way to make someone else happy and not get some of it for yourself.

The day you learn to get your mind off yourself long enough to think of others, is the day your life will take on a different meaning.  A life of serving others makes a very rich, fulfilling life.

Be Positive—When you get negativity out of your life, take notice how others react to you. 

 You’ll see a great difference!  You will never want to go back to the old way.  

Play more offense and less defense…Michael Jordan remarked that too many players at the end of the game were concentrating on not losing, rather than on winning. Some are thinking so heavily on reacting, that they are not nearly proactive as they need to be.   Instead of waiting on someone else to initiate the mood (your mood), try setting the tone to the one you want.  You have a choice, don’t let anyone or anything take that from you.

8/22—Start Your Day Off Right

Quote:

Pray daily, God is easier to talk to than most people

Story:

The African impala can jump to a height of over 10 feet and cover a distance of greater than 30 feet.

Yet these magnificent creatures can be kept in an enclosure in any zoo with a 3-foot wall. The animals will not jump if they cannot see where their feet will fall.

Faith is the ability to trust what we cannot see, and with faith we are freed from the flimsy enclosures of life that fear allows to entrap us.

The Lesson From The Little Boy Playing In His Backyard

A little boy was overheard talking to himself as he strode through his backyard, baseball cap in place and toting ball and bat. 

“I’m the greatest baseball player in the world,” he said with pride. Then he tossed the ball in the air, swung and missed. Undaunted, he picked up the ball; he threw it into the air and said to himself, “Yes, I’m the greatest player ever!” He swung at the ball again. Again, he missed. He paused a moment to examine bat and ball carefully. Then once again he threw the ball into the air and said, “I’m the greatest baseball player who ever lived.” He swung the bat hard and again missed the ball. “Wow!” he exclaimed. “What a pitcher!””

If You Are An Elder The People Will Know It

You have to earn your stripes!

1 Timothy 3:1-7

This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous; One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?) Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil. Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
