Let your light shine!
Deliberately choose to look for joy in every step
of your journey through life
and to share it with others.
When you do, you will be blessed with happiness
no matter what your circumstances are.

Two ninety-year-old men, Herb and Herman,
were at the funeral service for another ninety-year-old.
After the benediction, they lingered,
looking at the open casket of the deceased friend.
Finally Herb said to Herman,
"You know it's hardly worth going home."

For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through it once a day.
For poise, walk with the knowledge that you'll never walk alone.

When God permits His Children to go
through the furnace experiences of our lives.
He keeps His eye on the clock---
and His hand on the thermostat!
**
I had to give up jogging for my health...
My thighs kept rubbing together
and setting my pantyhose on fire!
**
Pain in inevitable.
We can't prevent it,
and sometimes we can't stop it once it's started.
But we can choose not to be miserable.
Invite Jesus to come into your fiery furnace with you,
and He will place His loving hands under your
and lift you up into His strong arms of protection.

A LITTLE BOY'S PRAYER:
Dear God,
take care of the whole world.
And please, God, take care of Yourself,
or we're all sunk!!
