Personal Story Of The Day
An ObituaryToday we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend who has been with us for many years. No one knows how old he was since his birth records were buried long ago by bureaucratic red tape.
He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as knowing when to come in out of the rain, why the early bird gets the worm and that life isn't always fair.
He lived by simple sound financial policies (don't spend more than you earn ) and reliable parenting strategies ( adults, not kids, are in charge ).
His health began to rapidly deteriorate when well-intentioned but misguided and overbearing regulations were put into place.
Reports of a six year old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using a mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student only worsened his condition.
It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer aspirin to a student, but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted an abortion.
He lost the will to live when the bible became contraband; churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims.
Finally, he gave up the ghost when a women failed to realise a steaming cup of coffee was hot, spilt some on her lap, and received a huge sum after suing for damages. Her husband, who was injured after slamming into a tree in his car whilst driving home from the local, also successfully sued the hotel manager for serving him.
He was preceded in death by his parents; Truth and Trust, by his wife; Discretion, his daughter; Responsibility, and his son; Reason.
He is survived by his two brothers who have taken over his role; My Rights and Ima Whiner.
Not many attended his funeral because so few realised he had gone ( or cared ).
His name was Common Sense.

Devotional Thoughts Of The Day
Love and Humility
Serving Who?
And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. Joshua 24:15
All around us today, there is bedlam... from shore to shore, country to country. Every day, we hear of more things happening, from persecutions, kidnappings, bombings, and needless killings. But we have many choices in this country... the choice to live a criminal life, or a good life, one of confusion or one of peace.
There are many religions, and many denominations from which to choose... from Christianity to Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Scientology, and on and on. There are Baptists, Methodists, Assembly of God, Presbyterians, Church of God, Pentecostals, Catholics, and more. How do you make a choice?
We don't 'serve' religions, nor do we 'serve' churches. We either serve the devil or God. If you don't know GOD through the indwelling Holy Spirit, then there's a clear answer for whom you are working this day... it isn't God!! But you can choose to serve the risen Saviour, the one in whom you can place your trust to help you through all the persecutions and tribulations of this world. He will give you 'new life', not a broken promise. There's nothing hidden with God; He knows all about us. No wonder the church of the New Testament grew and prospered... they identified the salvation gospel loud and clear... they were baptised in water and Spirit... they spoke in tongues as God gave them the power and sign of salvation.
It is important to gather together in the fellowship of God's people, to work together, to grow in wisdom and knowledge, to build unity through the working of the Spirit... to save souls and maintain souls through the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit... this is how you serve God!!
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13. References from John 15:9-17.
Understanding true sacrificial love and humility can only come from God's purposes... the kind evidenced by Jesus and the Twelve disciples. Almost all of whom died directly because of their love for each other and for Christ. The above verses show the chain of love all the way from the Father, to the Son, to those who obey the Fathe'rs commands (v9, 10).
But this love doesn't reach its final destination in us... Jesus commands us to pass it on (v12)! And when He calls for us to love each other, He's not talking about words or empty affection. The greatest way we can show our love is to give up our very lives (v13). Then Jesus goes on to say that being His friend means obedience to God (v14). And we aren't just obeying blindly like servants who have no idea why... we obey as friends who share in the calling and the joy of our master (v15). And how meaningful it must have been for the disciples to hear Jesus say, I chose you (v16)!
We can claim that encouragement, too. We can also be assured that our work for Christ will bear fruit that will last and that the Father will meet all our needs (v16). Jesus then reinforces His command to love each other (v17). But He didn't just say the words, He showed us how with His death on the cross. You may not have to die for your friends or for Christ... However, obedience is essential (obedience and love really go hand in hand). Love is commanded by Jesus, and an attitude of true selfless love produces a commitment to obedience.
