7/16–Start Your Day Off Right Series

Quote:

Story:

There are people who would like to finish college and obtain their degree, but think they are too old because they are forty. 

They will make a statement that they will be almost forty-five by the time they finish. 

Well, I want to know how old they will be in five years if they don’t get their degree? 

The very fact that woke you up this morning means God is not through with you yet!

Can You Spare A Minute Or So 7/16?

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

An old tale is told of a storm that caught a vessel off a rocky coast and threatened to drive it and its passengers to destruction. 

In the midst of the terror, one daring man, contrary to orders, went to the deck, made a dangerous passage to the pilot house and saw the steerman, at his post holding the wheel unwaveringly, and inch by inch, turning the ship out, once more, to sea. The pilot saw the watcher and smiled. 

Then, the daring passenger went below and gave out a note of cheer: “I have seen the face of the pilot, and he smiled. All is well.”

In a similar manner, God smiles on us.   All is well.

Story:

If I Had My Life To Live Over

The following was written by the late Erma Bombeck after she found out she had a fatal disease.

If I had my life to live over, I would have talked less and listened more.

I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was stained and the sofa faded.

I would have eaten the popcorn in the ‘good’ living room and worried much less about the dirt when someone wanted to light a fire in the fireplace.

I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his youth.

I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer day because my hair had just been teased and sprayed.

I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage.

I would have sat on the lawn with my children and not worried about grass.

This is so true! In life there are no practice runs or laps. There are also no re-do’s. We only have one time through to get it right….so, we had better make it good!!

Scripture:

Ecclesiastes 9:10

Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.

The Power Of Showing Up

Have you ever noticed how much of life’s success comes from simply showing up? It’s not always about having all the answers, the perfect plan, or the ideal timing — it’s about being present, being faithful, and being willing.

Woody Allen once said, “Eighty percent of success is showing up.” That may seem like an oversimplification, but it carries deep truth. The person who gets stronger is the one who keeps showing up at the gym. The writer who finishes a book is the one who keeps showing up at the keyboard. The believer who grows spiritually is the one who keeps showing up to pray, read, and trust—even when it’s hard.

Think about David facing Goliath. He wasn’t the biggest or strongest, but he showed up. Think about Moses, who didn’t feel qualified to lead, yet he showed up at the burning bush. Their willingness opened the door for God to move.

📖 Scripture for Today:

“Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and He will establish your plans.” – Proverbs 16:3 (NIV)

Success is often born out of consistency, not perfection. So even if you feel tired, behind, or unqualified today, just show up. Bring your best, even if it’s not perfect. Your faithfulness will be honored in ways you can’t yet see.

💥 Today’s Challenge:

What area of your life have you been hesitating to “show up” for? Take one bold step today — whether it’s making a phone call, writing a paragraph, going for a walk, or kneeling in prayer. You may not see the results immediately, but consistency will compound.

😊 Final Thought:

You don’t have to be perfect today. Just be present. The reward comes to those who keep showing up — especially when they don’t feel like it.

You Can’t Wait Till Life Isn’t Hard Before You Decide To Be Happy 

Story:

 

It’s not the critic who counts, not the one who points out how the strong man stumbled or how the doer of deeds might have done them better. 

 The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred with the sweat and dust and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes up short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions and spends himself in a worthy cause and who, at best knows the triumph of high achievement and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.” (Theodore Roosevelt, 1858-1919, 26th US President and 1906 Nobel Peace Prize-winner.)

Scripture:

Psalms 27:13-14

I had fainted, unless I had believed

to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.

Wait on the LORD:

be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.

7/14– Can You Spare A Minute?

The north wind and the sun argued which was the stronger. On seeing a traveller they agreed a suitable test would be to strip him of his cloak. 

First the wind blew with all his might, but the more he blew, the more than man wrapped the cloak tightly around himself. 

When the sun’s turn came, he gently beamed at the man, who loosened the cloak. The sun shone brighter still, and the man threw off his cloak.
