Our light house- lights to look for and signals to heed:Love God more than you fear hell
once a week let a child take you for a walk
make a major decision in a cemetery
when no one is watching, live as if someone is
succeed at home first
dont spend tomorrows money today
pray twice as much as you fret
listen twice as much as you speak
only harbor a grudge when God does
never outgrow your love for sunsets
treat people like angels, you will meet some and help make some
err on the side of generosity
God has forgiven you, you would be wise to do the same
when you cant trace Gods hand, trust in his heart
dont feel guilty for God's goodness
the book of life is lived in chapters, so know your page number
never let the important be the victim of the trivial
live your liturgy
God is never irritated by the candle of an honest seeker
Job-- "I had heard about you before , but now I have seen you"
Faith is not born at the negotiating table, it is not an award given for the most learned, it is not a prize given to the most diciplined, it is not bequeathed to the most religious. Faith is a desperate dive out of a sinking boat of human effort and a prayer that God will be there to pull us out of the water. "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith and this not from yourself it is the gift of God-not by works, so that no one can boast."
Worship is a voluntary act of graditude offered by the saved to the Savior, a thank you that refuses to be silenced.
