SUFFERING

“When I get to heaven, I will recognize Jesus right away because of all the time spent in the fellowship of His suffering.

.            —–Joni Erickson Tada

WORKING TOO HARD? – – – WORKING TOO LONG?

Take a break, for fun.

Recently I worked late and still didn’t finish my goal, so I said this to my customer:

“I ran out of daylight—but I ran out of common sense a few hours ago (when I should have stopped)”

SAY IT RIGHT—SAY IT WRONG—PAY THE PRICE

Dan Cathy said it right.

Todd Akin said it imperfectly.

They are both right.

They both paid the price.

Right is always Right.

Truth is always Truth.

Beware the pitfalls of playing by popular opinion.

“GIVE THE DEVIL A LITTLE FINGER, . . . “

“Give the devil a little finger, and he’ll take the whole hand.”

Applications abound.  I hope it will make you think, and make a difference.

It makes me remember my dad and all he said and stood for, as he quoted this often.

My personal life can benefit from the searchlight of this truth.

The culture of America fits into this statement.

The mainstream media is already there.

The perils of politics demonstrate this rule.

Jesus was involved in politics, and so is the devil.

Don’t give the devil a little finger.

“Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.”

.          —–His Book  (trumps the title above)

PRACTICE WHAT YOU (CAN’T) PREACH

You can practice humility.

But you can’t profess humility.

WHO DID IT?

If you built a business,  “you didn’t build that.”     —–BHOB*

“Mr. President, you didn’t kill Osama Bin Laden.”     —–OPSEC

“Stop leaking information to our enemies; it will get Americans killed.”     —–OPSEC

“Shut up.”     —–OPSEC

*Barack Hussein OBama—Say BHHHOB aloud and it sounds like the warning for Christians in the 2008 election: “Beware of sheep’s clothing.”

“WHEN THE ROLL IS CALLED . . . “

“Let us labor for the Master

From the dawn ’till setting sun.

Let us talk of all His wondrous love and care.

 

Then when all of life is over

And our work on earth is done,

And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.”

 

(“. . . the parts that are for keeps.”—that is Jesus, the Master)

MORE . . . PASSION

I will not give anything a significant portion of my time and my energy that does not also include my passion.

Without passion, we do not have freedom.

Without passion stirring us to fight for freedom, very soon we will see someone else with passion ruling over us.

Contentment and Passion are mutually exclusive—dangerously so.

If you are starving and find food,

If you are enslaved and find freedom,

If you are oppressed and find revolution,

If you are lost and find life and hope in Jesus,

You will feel compelled to share your food,

your freedom, your faith—with passion.

And that is why I write—I must write.

GOOD = EVIL – – – – – – EVIL = GOOD

People call evil, good.

People call good, evil.

“In those days there was no ruler in . . .    Every man did that which was right in his own eyes.”                —–His Book
