Eph 5:22-33. Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.

Can You Spare A Minute?

Excuses are like garbage.

I have a garbage can in my office.

If you  ask me what is in my garbage can…. I don’t itemize it and say an apple core and a banana peeling.

No, I just say garbage is in the can.

One has this excuse and another has a different excuse but that are all just excuses.

I have heard just about every excuse I could imagine but I haven’t heard the cat has measles or the dog ran away with the car yet!

Well the thing for you and me to do is just be content in whatever state we are in! 

Philippians 4: 11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. I live right on the state line so if I get discontent in one state is Paul saying that I can move to the other state and be happy. No friend, just be happy with where you are at with whatever you have! 

Be content with what you have because, you may be like Esau and get what you wanted but lose what you have. Or, you may be like Judas and get the thirty pieces of silver but lose what you already have. 

Your wife may have gained a hundred pounds since the wedding, but you had better be thankful for her. She keeps your clothes pressed and the kids and house clean. If she has a good meal on the table three times a day, you might better hold on to her! 

Wives, your husband may have gained a hundred pounds and lost his hair. But if he makes you and your children a good living, loves and takes care of you and your kids, you’d better not let him go either. So many people have traded something good off to find out that it was much better than what they traded for. 

If you have food on the table, a savings account, didn’t have to sleep in a car, you are so much better off than millions who don’t have those things. There are people overseas who would almost paddle a canoe to get to the United States and be where you are at. You had better be thankful! We have a life that some people only dream about. You had better hang on to your place and what you have got, there are people who would gladly trade with you.

6/1–God Will Stand Up For You

Story:

There are “get by prayers”and then there are “sure nuff”, “bold prayers”! A get by prayer is Lord help me have enough to get by a bold prayer is Lord help me have an abundance so that not only can I get by but that I can see that others get by too.A get by prayer is God help me pay my bills, a bold prayer is Lord help me to have enough to pay my bills with plenty left over to help some others. A get by prayer is Lord help me to make it, a bold prayer is not only help me make it but that I could help others too.

When Elijah was about to go away he asked Elisha what he wanted and he said a double portion. Elisha didn’t say a raise or a vacation, and Elijah didn’t rebuke him for asking for the max.Neither will God rebuke bold Prayers.

Shoot for the moon if you miss you may hit a star!!

Scripture:

Hebrews 4:16

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

Can You Spare A Minute?

I feel like I had two mothers… my natural Mother and my wife’s mother, my spiritual mother.

One thing my Spiritual Mother  taught me was not to have pity parties.

She once told me that she had never gotten the Lord to do anything for her trying to get Him to feel sorry for her.

I have come to the same conclusion. You can plan the pity party, buy the cake, balloons and whistles but nobody ever comes.

I heard that 80% don’t care if you have a problem and the other 20% are even tickled about it!

 Laugh and the whole world laughs with you but if you cry you cry alone

Use what talents you possess: 

The woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best.

I have no particular talent; I am merely extremely inquisitive. — Albert Einstein

Once a spider built a beautiful web in an old house. He kept it clean and shiny so that flies would patronize it. The minute he got a “customer” he would lean up on him so the other flies would not get suspicious. 

   

Then one day this fairly intelligent fly came buzzing by the clean spider web. Old man spider called out, “Come in and sit.” But the fairly intelligent fly said, “No, sir. I don’t see other flies in your house, and I am not going in alone!” 

   

But presently he saw on the floor below a large crowd of flies dancing around on a piece of brown paper. He was delighted! He was not afraid if lots of flies were doing it. So he came in for a landing. 

   

Just before he landed, a bee zoomed by, saying, “Don’t land there, stupid! That’s flypaper!” But the fairly intelligent fly shouted back, “Don’t be silly. Those flies are dancing. There’s a big crowd there. Everybody’s doing it. That many flies can’t be wrong!”

Psalms 37:23,24. The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD:
and he delighteth in his way.
Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down:
for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand.
