Be Careful Who You Trust

There are two types of fools: Those who trust everyone and those who trust no one.

When facing surgery, one must trust the anesthesiologist, the nurses and the surgeons. But, in reality, one's trust must ulimately be in God. Beyond that, one does not have any control.

Remember, experts disagree. Otherwise, there would be no controversy over the "best answer" for anything. Make sure your decisions, and your trust, are clear in prayers. Then let God's will be done.

Live One Day at a Time

You may want to consider the phrase "Day tight compartment living". After, today is all we have. The past is history. We need to learn from it, but not be enslaved to it. "Get over it" is something we human beings have a hard time doing.

We need to plan, but to always understand that God's plan will take precedence over out plans.

"If you are constantly looking back, chances are pretty good you'll fall into a hole ahead."

Don't Worry - But if you do ...

Worrying about what's right is always more important than worrying about who's right.

You can do the impossible

Nothing is more rewarding than to watch someone who says it can't be done get interrupted by someone actually doing it.

Remember - the Titanic was unsinkable and the Spanish Armada was unable to be defeated. Never say anything is impossible. If it is God's will, it will happen.

Don't Lie

Remember - people who will lie for you, will lie to you.

What does it take to make you happy?

If you aren't happy with what you've got now, what makes you think you'll be happier with more?

Live Right

If someone says something unkind about you, live your life so that no one will believe it.

Win

The race is not always won by the fastest runner but sometimes by those who just keep running.

Maintain your equipment - including your body

Spend the extra dollars to maintain your equipment. Remember, you don't have to brush all your teeth either ... only the ones you want to keep.

Wise or Foolish

Remember - a wise man can say a foolish thing, and a fool can say something wise once in a while.

Note from God

I have heard this before, and have just come across it again in a book I am currently ready.

"Do not feel totally, personally, irrevocably responsible for everthing. That's my job" signed, God

How many times do we take on more responsibility than is actually ours. I am of the opinion that it happens as much or more often than the times we shirk our real responsibilities.

We need to go to the Holy Spirit - that is, we need to clear our minds and listen to what the Spirit is telling us. Then we can be open to listening to the will of God - and read His notes to us.
