Scripture Of The Day
Whoso keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof: so he that waiteth on his master shall be honoured.Proverbs 27:18
Read The Bible In a Year
Isaiah 45-46 ; 1 Thessalonians 3Thoughts For The Day
Sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down will be the ones to help you get back up.Heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.
The chief obstacle to the progress of the human race is the human race.
Motivation For The Day
"Expect people to be better than they are; it helps them to become better. But don't be dissapointed when they're not; it helps them to keep trying."On This Day
Nothing happened today :)Personal Story Of The Day
Spiritual Inspiration Is Greater Than Natural PossessionsA crane was wading in a stream and looking for snails to eat when a beautiful swan landed nearby. The crane had never seen a swan before, so he asked, "What are you?"
"I'm a swan," came the reply.
"And where did you come from?" the crane inquired.
"Heaven," the swan answered, and he eagerly spoke of a city of pure gold with jasper walls and pearly gates.
At that point the crane interrupted, "Tell me, are there snails in heaven?"
"No, I'm afraid not," the swan said.
"No, I'm afraid not," the swan said.
"Then I don't care to go there," the crane stated decisively. "I like snails!"
Some people think like the crane in this old fable. They are so obsessed by earthly possessions that they fail to appreciate the eternal riches of all that God offers. Like the rich young ruler in Mark 10, they foolishly choose the things of earth instead of the wonderful realities of heaven. Remember, this man wanted to fill the missing gap. He knew he lacked and was genuinely looking for answers, but the answer was not what he thought, nor wanted
Sometimes when things aren't going the way they should, it may be that some temporal pleasure or possession is standing in your way. Don't allow anything to keep you from your fellowship and witnessing. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth Colossians 3:2. Compared to the glories of heaven, the best things of this world are but snails!

************************************
Two men were at a bar and one said, " Hey, I had my IQ checked and it was 175, The other responded " That's a coincidence so is mine, what do you do for a living?" " I'm a physicist." was the reply. Again came "that's a coincidence so am I." This was overheard at a nearby table and these two compared IQ's at 160 and were surprised that they were both brain surgeons. At another nearby table one man despondently said to the other "Did you hear that? I had my IQ checked and it was only 52." The other said, rather enthusiastically, "That's a coincidence. So is mine. What instrument do you play????"

Devotional Thoughts Of The Day
God Sanctifies YouAnd the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.1 Thessalonians 5:23
When we begin to follow the directives of Jesus Christ, we begin to appreciate His glory and strength. But we also see the gap between Him and us. This can cause us to feel depressed and dejected. We focus on our shortcomings and on the fact that we are not as we ought to be. But there is no blessing in giving up. For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find (Romans 7:18).
Without help from the Holy Spirit, we cannot maintain our new spiritual life. But with His help, our life can be transformed. Sometimes we meet people who have received the Holy Spirit, yet they still live carnal lives... this is not for us. We however, cannot hide behind the satisfying fact that the Lord uses us. He still wants to transform our lives more and more.
Our flesh has a remarkable tendency to hide behind righteous phrases. We also may rest on the fact that we are being used by God to deny the need for change. The Holy Spirit takes God's Word, the sword of the Spirit, and highlights things in our lives that God desires to remove and cleanse from us. We often fight against this because we are embarrassed about our weaknesses, sins and failures, or unwilling to admit that we might be wrong.
We are worried that people will dislike us if they find out how we really are. We would rather show only our good side, and we easily live behind a mask. But the Lord wants to remove this from our lives so we are free and clothed in the white raiment of Christ referred to in Revelations. These robes are a perfect covering for our natural failings, thus we have motivation and good reason to keep on growing in our abilities to serve the Lord.
God’s word has the answer if you are:
Discouraged…
John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you, not as the world giveth, give I unto you, Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Worried…
I Peter 5:7″cast all your cares upon him for he careth for you”
Lonely…
John 14:18 “I will not leave you comfortless, I will come to you”
Psalm 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble”.
Depressed…
Psalm 34:17 “The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles”.
Confused…
I Cor. 14:33 God is not the author of confusion
Psalm 32: 8 “I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way thou shalt go”
