Happiness and blessings to all...

Only 305 days to the year 2027

Scripture Of The Day

Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.
Psalms 16:1

Read The Bible In a Year

Numbers 23-25 ; Mark 7:14-37

Thoughts For The Day

Just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't love each other. And just because they don't argue, it doesn't mean they do.

Our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.

Life is to be fortified by many friendships. To love and to be loved is the greatest happiness of existence.

Motivation For The Day

Each success only buys an admission ticket to a more difficult problem

On This Day

Nothing happened today :)

Personal Story Of The Day

Say, Cheese!

A little girl walked to and from school daily. Though the weather that morning was questionable with clouds slowly darkening and lowering, she made her daily walk to the primary school. As the afternoon progressed, the winds got stronger, along with thunder and lightning. The mother of the little girl felt concerned that her daughter would be frightened as she walked home from school and she herself feared that the electrical storm might bring harm to her child.

Straight after a very loud clash of thunder, the mother quickly got into her car and drove to her daughter. As she did so, she saw her little girl walking along, but at each flash of lightning, the child would stop, look up and another would follow quickly and with each the little girl would look at the streak of light and smile. When the mother pulled up beside the child, she lowered the window and called to her, "What are you doing? Why do you keep stopping? "The child answered, " I am trying to look pretty. God keeps taking my picture."

Jokes Of The Day

The couple was delighted when their long wait to adopt a baby came to an end. The adoption center called and told them that there was a wonderful Russian baby boy available. The couple accepted him without hesitation.

On the way home from the adoption center, they stopped by the local college so they each could enroll in night courses.

After they filled out the forms, the registration clerk inquired, "What ever possessed you to study Russian?"

The couple said proudly, "We just adopted a Russian baby. In a year or so, when he begins to talk, we want to be able to understand him."

A man dies and finds himself standing third in line at the Pearly Gates.

The Angel explains that admission requirements are now a bit more strict, as a few slum landlords and con artists have managed to slip into Heaven without being detected.

He queries the first candidate:"What was your annual salary, and what was your profession? "I made $150,000 as an Attorney" comes the reply. "You may enter" says the Angel.

Second candidate, same question. "I made $95,000, I was a realtor." He is also permitted to enter. Now it is the third man's turn.

"My annual salary was $8,000." "Cool!" replies the Angel, "and what instrument did you play?"
************************************

After a ship sank in the ocean, three men ended up stranded in a lifeboat. They floated around for days without food or water. One afternoon a bottle floated up to the boat. The men grabbed the bottle and when they pulled the cork out of the bottle, a genie appeared.

"I'll grant each of you a single wish," said the genie. "I wish I was home," said the first man. Then, poof! He disappeared.

"I wish I was home, too," said the second man. Poof! He disappeared.

"The third man looked around. "Gee, I'm kind of lonely," he said. "I wish my friends were here with me."

Riddle Of The Day

What has a head, a tail, is brown, and has no legs?

Answer to Yesterdays Riddle
There was a guy stuck in a metal room with a metal door.The door was locked and there were no windows. The following items were inside the room:a piano, table,a saw,and a bat, How did the man get out? (3 ways)
First, he played the piano until he found the right key. Second, he sawed the table in half then held the two pieces together. Two halves make a whole.(hole) Third, he swung the bat three times. Three strikes, he's out.

Devotional Thoughts Of The Day

Making Your free time work.

For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: 1 Timothy 4:4. References from 1 Timothy 4:1-8.

We love the look on our children's faces when they open their presents. The look of surprise and incredibility is very rewarding. Today's verse shows that all genuine pleasure and beauty are gifts from God. In thinking about the Christian life, we sometimes gravitate to the ideas of suffering and sacrifice, but there are other truths that complete the picture.

God's will is not some nasty medicine we must swallow... He has prepared pleasures for us in the here and now as well as eternity. Ecclesiastes advises, 'Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun'. (Eccl 8:15).

Paul warned Timothy about legalists and gnostics who rejected this truth. For example, God gave sexual pleasure as a gift within marriage, but some taught against it. And He gave food as well, but some had made their own rules about it. Such people are rebuked in very strong language here! The God-given pleasures of life are numerous and the most satisfying.

Preventing The Problem

Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. James 1:21.

If you have a computer, it is eventually going to give you trouble. It might be from something you've done, a program you have installed that doesn't work with your system, or it might be something malicious someone else has done that harms your computer. To keep the malicious things out of our computer, (virus, trojan horses, etc) we need to keep an ant-virus program running continually. Also a firewall will help. Most wise people have both on their machine.

After an automatic upgrade of a friend's anti-virus program, they got a warning that there was a virus in their system. Upon running the scanner, they found four virus files on their computer! They tried deleting, but whoever wrote these viruses made them smart, in that you cannot just delete them. Some systems take a little time to fix the problem. You have to run in safe mode, and then try to get back to normal mode after you have taken care of the problem. Getting back to normal mode can be worse than having the virus problem itself.

Since they had not read the 'book' on how to do this, it took some hunting on the Internet to find the fix. Our spiritual life can be like the computer. We get complacent, do not study the Word like we should, or go to church regularly. Then, our heart and mind gets accustomed to what we hear and see in the world. Soon, we find ourselves developing a worldly attitude. We do things that we would not ordinarily do. And the more we miss our time with God (reading the Word, fellowshipping, etc), the worse we get. It can take time to get back to where we were with God, before we allowed the world to come in. When we open the door to sin, it gets a foothold and doesn't want to let us loose.

If we don't turn to God at the moment of our mistake and repent, we will sink lower and lower. It is like the computer virus; it will soon destroy us. But turning back to God, obeying his commandments, and keeping ourselves in the Word and Spirit (running our anti-virus software) can keep us new... no matter what the problem.

Facts Of The Day

A four month old fetus will startle and turn away if a bright light is flashed on it's mother's belly. Babies in the womb will also react to sudden loud noises, even if their mother's ears are muffled.

There are more than 300 references to sheep and lambs, more than any other animal, in the Bible's Old Testament, one of the earliest records of sheep.
