Let's be more like Jesus


"Jesus is patient,
Jesus is kind.
Jesus does not envy,
Jesus does not boast,
Jesus is not proud.
Jesus is not rude,
Jesus is not self-seeking,
Jesus is not easily angered,
Jesus keeps no record of wrongs.
Jesus does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
Jesus always protects,
Jesus always trusts,
Jesus always hopes,
Jesus always perseveres.
Jesus never fails."

No Need


No need to panic. I’m with you. 
There’s no need to fear, I’ll give you strength. 
I’ll help you. 
I’ll hold you steady.
Isaiah 41:10

Even When...


Even when you are old, I will be the same. Even when your hair has turned gray, I will take care of you. I made you and will take care of you. I will carry you and save you.
Isaiah 46:4

The Reason

I am thankful for...


-The taxes I pay because it means I am employed.
-The clothes that fit a little too snug because it means I have enough to eat. 
-My shadow who watches me work 
because it means I am out in the sunshine.
-A lawn that has to be mowed, windows that have to be washed and gutters that need fixing because it means I have a home.
-The spot I find at the far end of the parking lot 
because it means I am capable of walking.
-All the complaining I hear about our government 
because it means we have freedom of speech. 
-The lady behind me in church who sings off key 
because it means that I can hear.
-The huge piles of laundry and ironing 
because it means my loved ones are nearby.
-The alarm that goes off in the early morning hours 
because it means that I’m alive.

Speak


Ephesians 4:29-32
Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice.Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.

Jealousy


Jealousy is when you count someone else's blessings instead of yours.
