Scripture Of The Day
Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again John 3:7.Read The Bible In a Year
Isaiah 7-8; Ephesians 2.Thoughts For The Day
Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to explain.Getting ahead in a difficult profession requires avid faith in yourself. That is why some people with mediocre talent, but with great inner drive, go much further than people with vastly superior talent.
Never confuse movement with action.
Motivation For The Day
Cheerfulness, it would appear, is a matter which depends fully as much on the state of things within, as on the state of things without and around us.On This Day

Fluent in seven modern languages and Latin, the pope fully embraced his role as ambassador of the Roman Catholic Church, and has traveled more extensively than any other pope in history. Known for his staunch anti-communism, the pope was an outspoken supporter of democratic movements in his native Poland and elsewhere during the 1980s. He survived being shot in an assassination attempt in 1981.
1991 - The first freely-elected President of Haiti , Jean-Bertrand Aristide, is removed from office in a military coup.
Personal Story Of The Day
PrivilegedOne of the world's greatest architects, Sir Christopher Wren, undertook the task of helping to rebuild London after it had been nearly destroyed by fire in 1666. One day he visited the site where a large church building was under construction. He called out to a labourer perched high on a scaffold, "What are you doing up there?" With pride that man called back, "I'm helping Sir Christopher Wren build a cathedral!"
That was not an empty boast, for without the help of unnamed workers, Wren could not have constructed any of his impressive structures. The 52 beautiful churches and other prime buildings are as much a memorial to the workers as to Wren.
Do you ever feel that what you're doing in life is boringly humdrum and unimportant? Most of us can feel that way from time to time. And it's hard at times to keep in mind that as we serve Christ, "we are God's fellow workers" (1 Corinthians 3:9), assisting Him in the building of His church (v's.10-11; Matthew 16:18). But no matter what our job or task in life, as we are faithful to the Lord in the use of our time, talents, and gifts, we are helping Him to build the church.

Most people don't grasp the fact that we receive the Holy Spirit to be empowered to serve the Lord in a way we can't with our natural abilities. Use your prayers to direct your life... ask God for wisdom and knowledge: ask God to be used and it will happen. Never stop asking and you will never lose your sense of purpose.
Praise God for the privilege of working alongside of Him. When we walk in the spirit, our work matters!

Jokes Of The Day
An usher went up to a man with his hat on in church and asked him to remove it. "Thank goodness," said the man. "I thought that would do it. I've attended this church for months, and you are the first person who has spoken to me."************************************

Devotional Thoughts Of The Day
Respect And Thankfulness
President Harry Truman was once asked to speak at a fund-raising project to help the children of a White House guard who was slain in the line of duty. With great emotion he said, "You can't imagine just how a man feels when someone else dies for him."
David must have had a similar experience in response to his three mighty warriors. When he expressed a longing for a drink from the well of Bethlehem, Adino, Eleazar, and Shammah voluntarily broke through the Philistine camp and got it for him. They were so devoted to their leader that they risked their lives to fulfill his wish.

They were so devoted to their leader that they risked their lives to fulfill his wish.
Their courage so moved David that he would not wet his tongue with one drop of that precious liquid. Instead, he poured it out as an offering to the Lord, saying, "Is this not the blood of the men who went in jeopardy of their lives?" (2 Samuel 23:17). Their act was as noble as if they had died for him.
Most nations set aside a day to remember those who have fought in their wars, especially those who have sacrificed their lives to defend freedom. They deserve to be honoured and respected. How many people set time aside to remember their greatest friend, who died for their sin?

How many show respect for the simple fact that without Jesus Christ there would be no New Testament, no Holy Spirit anointing, no blessing of Christian nations... in fact, all human life on earth would not exist! Respect and thankfulness are quickly declining in this world... that is why we need to get out, share our testimony and try and recover those who have lost their way.
Bird Food
And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan. And it shall be, that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there. So he went and did according unto the word of the LORD: for he went and dwelt by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan. 1 Kings 17:2-5.
Just after World War 2 a man wanted to buy a Rolls Royce. After thinking about it for several months, he contacted the dealership to gather the pertinent facts about the model he was considering buying. He found out the price and then proceeded with some thorough questions about the limousine. Finally, only one question remained unanswered: "What is the horsepower of this engine?"
The salesman couldn't find that information in the brochures. Not knowing where else to look, he appealed to his sales manager, and the manager emailed the home office in England. The answer came back with just one word: "Adequate."
After Elijah confronted King Ahab, God ordered him to go into hiding.The place chosen, the Brook Cherith, was a great place to hide. Ahab would never think of looking in such a forsaken area, but it was a challenge to survive there. Yet God proved Himself adequate. There was a brook for water, and at His command even the ravens helped provide for Elijah's needs. No situation or circumstance is too difficult for God.
When the world withholds its provision, He is adequate. What God uses to provide for you may seem strange, but with all of creation willing to do His bidding, He will find a way. Take heart. Those dark shadows on the horizon may well be God's ravens. Be assured that God will never forsake you nor fail you. Whatever your circumstances, you will always find Him adequate. Others may fail you, but God never will.
Facts Of The Day
- In the air, puffins are powerful flyers, beating their wings 300 to 400 times a minute to achieve speeds up to 40 miles per hour (64 kph).
- Bugs hold special places in the hearts of many Japanese, who often keep crickets, beetles and fireflies as pets. Their calls are considered soothing and remind the nature-loving Japanese of a simpler, less hectic age.

Lord, open my eyes to see with the spirit rather than through the eyes of doubt and fear.Comic
