24 Things To Always Remember

 I'll be out of pocket for a few days enjoying some great family time and relaxation!  Will be back next week unless I find time to post a few pictures!!  Here is something sweet to remember:

24 Things To Always Remember

1. The biggest handicap in the world is negative thinking.

2. He who cannot forgive others breaks the bridge over which he himself must pass.

3. Patience carries a lot of wait.

4. It is better to be thought a fool than open your mouth and remove all doubt.

5. A man wrapped up in himself makes a very small package.

6. Inch by inch life's a cinch but by the yard, it's much too hard.

7. The best angle to approach a difficult problem, is the "try"angle.

8. Faith without works is like snow on a stove.

9. Have a positive attitude - it's contagious.

10. The more you judge the less you love.

11. What you say reveals much - what you don't say reveals much more.

12. The easiest person to deceive is yourself.

13. We should never let adversity get us down - except on our knees.

14. The longer one carries a problem, the heavier it gets.

15. Your religion is what you do when the sermon is over.

16. Success comes in cans - Failure comes in can'ts.

17. The golden rule tarnishes unless polished with use.

18. A marriage may be made in Heaven - but the maintenance is done on Earth.

19. Problems are inevitable - misery is optional.

20. Remember actions speak louder than words.

21. Jesus is coming - prepare NOW.

22. You can only keep one thought in your mind at a time - make it a good one.

23. Don't lose your temper, no one else wants to find it.

24. Take the time to pray - you'll be glad you did!

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals. My son came up afterwards to me and said, "I didn't score today, but I blocked". What a powerful truth those words can hold. In life, sometimes we score, sometimes we block. Sometimes we do great things, we excel, we achieve, we meet our goal - we score! There are also times we see the needs of others, sometimes they are sad or hurting, we block their hits. We look out for them so they can score. We...

WFW – Write It On My Heart

This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel       after that time, declares the Lord.    I will put My laws in their minds       and write them on their hearts.    I will be their God,       and they will be My people.  Hebrews 8:10 On a recent field trip to a museum featuring the days gone by, we sat in an old schoolroom as the teacher introduced us to the quill pen and bottle of ink.  She cautioned us to use extreme caution using the ink and told us that if it got on our skin or clothes, it would not come off. This reminded me of this beautiful promise from Hebrews.  God told His people he would put His law in their minds and write it on their hearts.  This is a covenant which cannot be broken.  He loves us and wants us to know Him through His Word.  As we read more and more of His Word, it becomes w...

Construction, Challenges, Chaos

 Who knew something simple could erupt into something chaotic so quickly? A broken file cabinet forced us to purchase a new one. We found one online, ordered it and it arrived quickly with a do it yourself assembly book, complete with 24 part packages and 18 steps of instructions!  As we unpacked the items and compared with the instruction book, we realized a part was missing. Customer service was called, a replacement part was quickly received. Except, the screws did not fit into the holes on the replacement part. We tried again, received another part, same issue.  Meanwhile, the 24 packages of parts are spread out on my living room floor, customer service does not understand my issue, they asked for photos which were sent and now we are again, waiting for a part.  It seems every project faces the inevitable delay. My work place is undergoing a floor remodel. Upheaval, dust, packing, lots of inconvenience and depending on the work crew's schedule dictate the next fe...
