CUSSING IN CHURCH

CUSSING  IN CHURCH 

A crusty old man walks into the  local   Baptist Church and  says to the  secretary, 'I would like to join this damn  church.'    The astonished woman replies, 'I  beg your pardon, sir.  I must have  misunderstood  you. What did you say?'   'Listen up, damn it.     I  said I want to join this damn church!'   'I'm very sorry  sir, but that kind of language is not tolerated in this      church.'  The secretary leaves her desk and goes  into the pastor's study to inform     him of  her  situation.  The pastor agrees that the  secretary does not have to listen to that foul  language.  They both return to her office and the pastor asks the  old geezer,    'Sir,  what seems to be the problem here?'  'There is no damn problem,' the man says. 'I just won  $200 million bucks  in the  damn lottery and I want to  join this damn church to get rid of some of  this damn  money.'  'I see,' said the pastor.         'And is this  bitch giving you a hard time?'

Smile to your sorry...Promise myself to enjoy every minute of life

"Suffering is not enough. Life is both dreadful and wonderful...How can I smile when I am filled with so much sorrow? It is natural--you need to smile to your sorrow because you are more than your sorrow."

"I promise myself that I will enjoy every minute of the day that is given me to live."

Miracle to walk on this earth

There is always Hope. Dr Yetz

"Hope is important because it can make the present moment less difficult to bear. If we believe that tomorrow will be better, we can bear a hardship today."

Waking up this morning, I smile

"Waking up this morning, I smile. Twenty-four brand new hours are before me. I vow to live fully in each moment and to look at all beings with eyes of compassion."

Letting go of suffering

"People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar."

 

  ~Thich Nhat Hanh

Your smile can be your joy

Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy."

 

  ~Thich Nhat Hanh 

 

When we see the truth of life, death, out thoughts become free of emotions.

"Most of us aren't willing to face the reality of impermanence and death. That's because we forget that our lives are transitory,
that we quarrel with each other, as if we are going to live for ever.
But, if we face the fact of death, our quarrels will come to an end.
We will then realize the folly of fighting when we ourselves are doomed to die. Excited by emotions our thought being clouded, we cannot see the truth about life. When we see the truth, however, our thoughts become free of emotions."

Everything we experience begins with thought

"Everything we experience begins with thought,
Our words and deeds spring from thought,
If we speak or act with evil thoughts, Famous Buddha Quotes
unpleasant circumstances and experiences inevitably will result,
Wherever we go, we create bad karma because we carry bad thoughts. We cannot shake off this suffering as long as we are tied to our evil thoughts. Buddhist Quote Dhammapada
This is very much like the wheel of a cart that follows the hooves of an ox,
The animal is bound to this heavy load with ever step it takes."

 

  ~The B

Let us always be thankful

"Let us rise up and be thankful; for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful."

Meditation brings wisdom

Virtue rises to the heavens

Religious Truths

Four great religious truths During these serious and trying times, people of all faiths should remember these four great religious truths: 1. Muslims do not recognize Jews as God's chosen people. 2. Jews do not recognize Christ as the Messiah. 3. Protestants do not recognize the Pope as the leader of the Christian world. 4. Baptists do not recognize each other at Hooters or the liquor store.     =

The Human Body

 

Subject: The Human Body   It takes your food seven seconds to get from your mouth to your stomach. One human hair can support 3kg (6.6 lb). The average man's private area is three times the length of his thumb. Human thighbones are stronger than concrete. A woman's heart beats faster than a man's. There are about one trillion bacteria on each of your feet. Women blink twice as often as men. The average person's skin weighs twice as much as the brain. Your body uses 300 muscles to balance itself when you are standing still. If saliva cannot dissolve something, you cannot taste it. Women reading this will be finished now. Men are still busy checking their thumbs.

Momentary troubles

"For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all"

(2 Corinthians 4:17, NIV)
 

One word, one thought can bring another joy

"The source of love is deep in us and we can help others realize a lot of happiness. One word, one action, one thought can reduce another person's suffering and bring that person joy."

Every day everything is a miracle!!!

"People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But I think the real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth. Every day we are engaged in a miracle which we don't even recognize: a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the black, curious eyes of a child -- our own two eyes. All is a miracle."

I will make you fruitful...

Make Room TODAY'S SCRIPTURE "I will look on you with favor and make you fruitful and increase your numbers, and I will keep my covenant with you. You will still be eating last year's harvest when you will have to move it out to make room for the new" (Leviticus 26:9–10, NIV) TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria God wants to bless you and multiply you. He wants to increase you above and beyond what you could ever ask, think or imagine. But sometimes, we fill our lives with so much that we simply don't have room to receive all that God wants to give us. People fill their lives with good things, noteworthy obligations and impressive accomplishments. But "good" can be the enemy of "best." We have to take the time to evaluate what we have in our hands and be willing to move some things out in order to make room for the new thing God has for us. Today, take some time to evaluate your life. Be open to what God wants to do in and through you. If your hands are full, maybe it's time to use what you have to bless other people. Don't let holding on to yesterday keep you from God's best. Instead, make room because He has abundant blessings in store for you. A PRAYER FOR TODAY Heavenly Father, today I open my hands and my heart to You. I choose to release anything spiritually, physically or emotionally that would keep me from Your best. Search my heart, God, and show me where I need to make adjustments to make room for You. In Jesus' Name. Amen. — Joel & Victoria Osteen

 

Everything springs only from our self

"When you think everything is someone else´s fault, you will suffer a lot. When you realize that everything springs only from yourself, you will learn both peace and joy. Pride leads to violence and evil. The truly good gaze upon everything with love and understanding."

 

~His Holiness the Dalai Lama

Happiness comes from within

"Human happiness and human satisfaction must ultimately come from within oneself. It is wrong to expect some final satisfaction to come from money or from a computer. Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment."

 

~His Holiness the Dalai Lama

Being nothing, we are everything

We live in illusion and the appearance of things. There is a reality. We are that reality. When you understand this, you see that you are nothing, and being nothing, you are everything. That is all.-B

Courage: I'll try again tomorrow

Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I'll try again tomorrow. ~Mary Anne Radmacher

Not I but God who was working through me by His grace.

"But whatever I am now, it is all because God poured out His special favor on me — and not without results. For I have worked harder than any of the other apostles; yet it was not I but God who was working through me by His grace"

(1 Corinthians 15:10, NLT)

Free me from my troubles

Psalm 4:1 (New Living Translation)

Even the people who drive us crazy can be our teacher

Kindness and Compassion are eternal

Whether one believes in a religion or not, and whether one believes in rebirth or not, there isn't anyone who doesn't appreciate kindness and compassion.

Dalai Lama

Enthusiasm

" Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm. "

 

 --Ralph Waldo Emerson

To live in the present moment is the miracle.

 "To live in the present moment is a miracle. The miracle is not to walk on water. The miracle is to walk on the green Earth in the present moment, to appreciate the peace and beauty that are available now." 

 

Tich Nhat Hahn

A smile can bring happiness to anyone even if they don't know you.

1. There are at least two people in this world 

that you would die for... 



2.. At least 15 people in this world 

love you in some way. 



3. The only reason anyone would ever hate you 

is because they want to 

be just like you. 



4. A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, 

even if they don't 

like you. 



5. Every night, 

SOMEONE thinks about you 

before they go to sleep. 



6. You mean the world to someone. 



7. You are special and unique. 



8. Someone that you don't even know exists loves you. 



9. When you make the biggest mistake ever, 

something good comes from it. 



10. When you think the world 

has turned its back on you 

take another look. 



11. Always remember the compliments you received.. 

Forget about the rude remarks. 



So........... 

If you are a loving friend, 

send this to everyone, 

including the one that sent it to you. 

If you get it back, then they really do love you. 





Good friends are like stars......... 

You don't always see them, 

But you know they are always there.. 



"Whenever God Closes One Door He Always Opens Another, Even Though 

Sometimes we don't understand what the new door means



I would rather have one rose and a kind word 

from a friend while I'm here 

than a whole truck load when I'm gone. 


Happiness keeps You Sweet, 

Trials keep You Strong, 

Sorrows keep You Human, 

Failures keeps You Humble, 

Success keeps You Glowing, 

But Only 

God keeps You Going

Arise, shine, for your light has come

"Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you"

(Isaiah 60:1, NIV).

TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria

Today, God wants to exceed your expectations! He has amazing things stored up for you. He wants to take you places that you've never dreamed and do things in your life that you've never imagined. His glory is rising upon His people. Things are going to fall into place so that you can accomplish what God has placed in your heart. Even the hidden dreams that you've given up on, God has not given up on. He is going to do exceedingly abundantly above and beyond all you could ask, think or imagine! Now is the time to arise and shine in Him!

Your mind may try to talk you out of it, but if you'll listen with your heart, it will resonate on the inside of you. Don't let discouragement hold you back or keep you down. Rise up every morning and declare, "Today is the day that the Lord has made." Choose to rejoice in Him. Choose to expect His goodness. Choose to arise and shine and receive every spiritual blessing He has in store for you!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Heavenly Father, I come to You today with an open and humble heart. Thank You for choosing me and for preparing a bright future for me. I will arise and shine. Let everything I do bring honor to You. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

- Joel & Victoria Osteen
