D0 what you can, do what you ought, and you will be doing what He wills.

You can only change the ending not the beginning.

All experiences are not mistakes but some will be.

Miracles come not from your efforts but from God’s faithfulness to your faith.

The greenest grass is where someone has worked their hardest.

It takes a Great Shepherd to make great pilgrims.

Whatever you add to Grace takes away from it!

What God has done will not be undone by any amount of unbelievers.

May your righteousness exceed your correctness!

Discontentment is the cancer of happiness.

----------------------------------------------------------

Pressure does not effect righteousness.

The pilgrim of Grace never falls  far enough, that he cannot rise again.

Being satisfied in your life is a choice; it is a gift from your Shepherd.

Be a beacon of Grace for those who are following your life!

The pilgrim of Grace always has enough!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Prosperity is the termite of faith and humility is the only cure.

between the spiritual and the secular.

even the smallest bit of Grace.

 but what God has done through you that should amaze you!

Peace is the fruit of Faith.

When you run out of things to say, praise!

-------------------------------------------------

Jesus has chosen to be your Good Shepherd.

God has given you the ability to love or hate Him, for now.

Your choices will determine you final altitude, be it high or low, up or down.

Whatever, God does in your life will bless the believers and stress the deceivers.

The Cross was the beginning of your shepherding.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

You do not have enough gray matter to understand God matters!

Everyone, who is a Christian, becomes famous to God!

There are no secretes in Heaven; so you best get ready for that.

Doing a little bit can affect a lot.

Live in the middle and rest in the margins, but stay in the Book!

My faith must exceed my ability.

Humility is a result of hearing God clearly.

Hope is the optimism of faith.

------------------------------------------------------

It is hard to keep on fire next to the lukewarm Chruistian.

and prejudice at the same time.

Selfishness has difficulty recognizing kindness.

The crippled of heart are crippled indeed!

Open your heart to kindness and your head to understanding.

Doing beats stewing.

Lies interfere with your memories.

Salvation is one of the few things in life you can know for sure!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Poke and hope or pinch and flinch, but life will happen either way!

Retirement is when you do more with less.

You cannot fail doing the Will of God, impossible!

Truth is not about degrees rather commitments.

Believing means; you can exercise your Faith for what you can’t do.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Christianity is the first to swap religion for a relationship.

You don’t have to yell to wake up God when you pray;

but it may wake up others in the congregation.

You will leave your money and reputation behind.

Count your blessing here, see your blessings there.

It is only your Heavenly account that counts.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Too many of life’s difficulties are usually, cleanup projects,

from our bad decisions.

Just because it is your opinion does not mean it is right.

Generally, life is full of what you chose.

Christianity is the only religion that isn’t one.

Always check your experiences by the Word.

The presence of the Holy Spirit allows you to feel more than we can explain

Love lightens the load of the loved.

The wreath always trumps wealth.

Blessed is he who bears good news in bad weather.

Fear and faith do not have firm borders.

Kindness embraces the hopeless.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Speak wisely and you won’t need as big of a stick.

-------------------------------------------------------

Politicians tend to get advice from those who can help them.

Retirement is like marriage you are not quite sure what you are getting into,

but you cannot wait to find out!

Retirement is stuffed with projects that need no time stamps.

Not working everyday should give me time to do what I thought I was doing already.

Work is what you make of it so will be retirement.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everybody is in a hurry but nobody is getting anywhere.

Little seems fair, when you lose.

Why is there a conflict between doing what I want to do, and doing what I need to do?

Summer is freedom in an oven.

Finding time to enjoy life sometimes lessen the enjoyment.

An apology mends most tares in life but seldom

without leaving scars.

deterrent to revenge.

The experiencing of sadness is less frightening than losing of hope.

It would be sad to grow old without sweetening.

No matter how bad a coin looks, it still has two sides.

----------------------------------------------

 

The best things in life aren’t!,,, Wait until you see Heaven!

A wise man listens; a fool only waits for his turn to talk.

Knowledge talks and wisdom filters.

To not change is to not have learned.

A tree that gives multitudes of fruit from; yet is grown from a single seed  Miracles like the rains and waters that allow our foods to grow, also           there are the stars we see each night and the vastness of the universe    before our eyes!
 
Then there is the child that is given from your love.  A crawling, walking, talking, little miracle. 
 
These things that happen are miracles of exasperating complexity yet,         we see these each and every day. Are these blessings or miracles? ..or perhaps both?

and brings a reward like nothing else.

No one ever wore a cross until they crucified Jesus.

Think the thoughts that refine your goals.

To overcome one must possess the Overcomer!

S
hame can either be your conscious at work or

deception at work.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

One of the fruits of love is protection.

If you are not family you are the enemy of God.

The influence of your life will be sown in the lives about you.


Does your life rescue hope or preserve despair.

Power should be a humbling blessing.

---------------------------------------------------

The only thing that could be wrong about Jesus

dying on the cross is for you not to accept it.

Hope often comes in the expression of a prayer.

An executive decision requires someone to accept responsibility.

It is not you sin that will keep you out of Heaven

but your lack of repentance or forgiveness of others.

Sin is a virus of suppression
.

Only a thankful mind can find wisdom.

Forgiveness flavors ever aspect of our life

as will the lack of forgiveness.

Pride must always be replaced with thankfulness.

-----------------------------------------------------

 

If you lived for the next world, this world would take notice.

Want to be more that you are?... Think God!

Allow no hunger for Heaven that exceeds your hunger for God!

Often, God’s help in your weakness turn people towards God

more than your strengths.

sunset in a picture.

What have you learned from what you did not learn?

will knock you off your feet.
Each marriage creates it own unique form of love.

Your experience in life is your life.

If a government must tell you that you are free

you know that you are not.

If you cannot stand the heat stay out of Hell!

--------------------------------------------------

 

Never underrate the possibility of a possibility.

Determination fuels perseverance.

Often fear is more fearful that it’s cause.

If nothing can separate me from the Love of God

then I have nothing to fear.

He is the kind of person who knows every but understand nothing.

------------------------------------------------------

 

Is variety the spice of life or is spice the variety of life?

Say yes as often as you can so when you say no it means something.

Coddle hope until it you see the roots of possibility;

then plant it in the soil of hard work.

Few things just happen that are worth happening.

Cruelty is a choice whether in word or deed.

to live by faith.

our family.

from God, Himself.

Around God’s campfire we can choose the music

but He chooses the blessing.

Wisdom is seeing things from God’s perspective.

The reverence of God is the beginning of wisdom.

If there were no troubles in a Christian’s life, the

New Testament would not have been written by jailbirds.

TRIALS KEEP YOU STRONG

AND SORROWS KEEP YOU HUMAN

FAILURES KEEP YOU HUMBLE

SUCCESS KEEPS YOU GLOWING

BUT ONLY GOD KEEPS YOU GOING!


Larry Fireoved

 

The test of strength that most people fail is perseverance.

The strength to make this right is better than

the strength to make things happen.

From the front porch of your lives consider

what you have caused.

It is best not to remember how good you have been

but how right you were.

Loneliness is not about how many people that are around you,

but the lack of peace within you.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

than by understanding.

Diligence is the sweat of purpose.

Never allow your Hope to become disorientated.

Next to the last means you are still ahead.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Often the toil is the greater burden of a trial.

Most marriages end over selfishness than anything else.

We are becoming more connected and less friendly.

Most religions are designed around you earning your salvation

Christianity is the only religion that gives salvation free.

ISN'T IT GREAT TO KNOW WHO IS REALLY IN CHARGE?
 
Jim Jacaruso

=================================================

 

All political loyalty cost someone something.

Victory does not bring cooperation but compassion will.

Life is long enough for you to correct most of your

errors but few of others.

Pondering a problem by itself, changes nothing about it!

Today, we will have a new president but Jesus

will still be our King.

 is worse.

united people is our strength.

After an election your responsibility

 to be responsible!

-----------------------------------------------------------

Our Constitution makes, We the People,

the king, act accordingly.

The presidency is not the only open office.

Whatever candidate you vote for be gracious to the other.

Be prepared to support who ever wins regardless of party.

Whoever wins will need more prayer than pout.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
 

Never under estimate the power of ignorance.

Do not vote to feel better but vote to be better.

When you feel the weakest is when you tend

to make the wrong choices.

An election is less about policies and more

about character.

Character is foundation on which new decisions

 must be based.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The spiritual side of an election is the most important.

Ask God for direction and vote for His agenda.

Vote! Elections are too important to leave to politicians!

To vote right is better than to feel right.

Your vote is your testimony!

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Vote by your morals not your emotions.

An election is more about you than the candidates.
