Personal Story Of The Day

The Wake Up Call 

On February 26, 1993, a powerful bomb exploded in the underground parking garage of the World Trade Center in New York City, killing six people and injuring more than a thousand. It sparked an aggressive investigation with many arrests. But few law enforcement authorities recognised it as part of an international terrorist plot. 

When the Trade Center towers were destroyed by terrorists in 2001, police commissioner Raymond Kelly looked back on the first attack and said, "It should have been a wake up call for America." 

We can find ourselves in a similar position. This world starts to attack us and we start to give in, without realising the path we are choosing. Before long we can find ourselves well involved in worldly thinking and not realising until the crunch comes. Looking back, we see a dropping off of prayer, fellowship reading, etc... this can be a twin towers moment in our life. 

The Lord told the church at Sardis that although they had a reputation for being spiritually alive, they were dead. He told them to wake up: "Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God. Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent." (Revelation 3:2-3). 

The call to all of us is to be vigilant toward the Lord rather than lax and indifferent. If the fire has gone out in our hearts, He pleads with us to stir the embers into flame again. Ask yourself: Has there been a wake up call in my life recently that I've missed? Is God trying to tell me something? Will I answer His wake up call today? 


Jokes Of The Day

Attending a wedding for the first time, a little girl whispered to her mother, "Why is the bride dressed in white?"

"Because white is the color of happiness, and today is the happiest day of her life," her mother tried to explain, keeping it simple.

The child thought about this for a moment, then said, "So why's the groom wearing black?"

************************************

"Amy," asked Patty, "what would you do if you ever caught another women kissing your husband?"

"With Jack!?" Amy thought it over. "Let's see, I'd break her cane, shoot her seeing eye dog, and call a cab to take her back to the institution she escaped from."

************************************

Sally goes into work one morning crying her eyes out. Her boss, concerned about all of his employees well being, asked sympathetically, "What's the matter?"

To which the blonde replies, "Early this morning I got a phone call saying that my mother had passed away."

The boss feeling very sorry at this point suggests to the young girl, "Why don't you go home for the day...we aren't terribly busy. Just take the day off to relax and rest."

Sally very calmly states, "No. I'd be better off here. I need to keep my mind off it and I have the best chance of doing that here."

The boss agrees and allows her to work as usual. "If you need anything just let me know."

A few hours pass and the boss decides to check on Sally. He looks out his office and sees her crying hysterically.

He rushes out to her asking, "What's so bad now? Are you going to be ok? What's wrong?"

Sally breaks down in tears. "I just received a horrible call from my sister. She said that *her* mom died too!!"

Devotional Thoughts Of The Day

Making Your free time work.

If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Galatians 5:25 References from Galatians 5:16-26

If you've been gardening this summer, some of the vegetables and fruits might be coming to an end about now, depending on where you live and what you have planted. Did they just spontaneously appear? Of course not. You've sown, watered, and weeded. 

Perhaps you've used special soils or fertilizers. No doubt you've checked for insects and maybe even set traps for grandchildren. The harvest you are about to reap is a result of cultivating the earth.

The same is true in the spiritual realm, which is why fruit of the Spirit is such a rich and memorable metaphor. Did you think this idea was only for work or ministry? Think again! The Spirit gives wisdom for leisure as well as for every other area of life. In fact, being filled with the Spirit and habitual walking with Him... is a key to God-centred and obedient leisure (as can be seen in the contrast between verses 16,17 and 24, 25 in today's verses). 

To keep in step with the Spirit means to walk in line with Him. One question we must therefore ask ourselves is whether our leisure activities cultivate or promote the sinful qualities listed in verses19-21. 

Does a certain computer game open the door to occult thinking or practices? Does the over competitive way you play a sport breed lack of respect? Are your preferred books and magazines questionable regarding sexual morality? Does your window shopping allow envy and jealousy to grow within you? In our free time choices, we must choose to control our sinful natures (Gal. 2:20).


Are You Hungry? 

They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; REV 7:16. 

We live in a land of plenty, although everything and everyone here doesn't always reflect that fact. There is an abundance of food of every kind. We have plenty of fresh vegetables, fruits, meat, etc, all grown in our own country. Although we live in a land of plenty, there are many people who are malnourished. 

Some are unable to purchase the food they need because of lack of money. Some prefer to make other choices, and do without their needs. 

Certainly, history bears it out there are many starving people in the world, but there are also those that are malnourished in their soul. Going without food too often, harms the body. We may become sickly, lose our strength, and our muscles waste away. We become tired and don't feel like doing anything. But, when our soul becomes malnourished, we suffer in the spiritual department. 

Each of us has a responsibility to study the Word, to pray, to fellowship with God's people and to preach the Gospel. We should never become malnourished in Word or in Deeds.


Facts Of The Day



There are about 295 species of pigeons and doves in the world.


Conveyor printing press is used to print the tiny white M's on each M&M candy. Because the peanut sizes vary, the press must be always adjusted to prevent smashing the peanuts in peanut M&Ms. Regular M&Ms, all the same size, are much easier to send through the printer.
