Is Happiness Your Attitude Too?

The 92-year-old, petite, well-poised and proud lady, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o'clock, with her hair fashionably coifed and makeup perfectly applied, even though she is legally blind, moved to a nursing home today. Her husband of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary. After many hours of waiting patiently in the lobby of the nursing home, she smiled sweetly when told her room was ready. As she maneuvered her walker to the elevator, I provided a visual description of her tiny room, including the eyelet sheets that had been hung on her window. "I love it," she stated with the enthusiasm of an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new puppy. "Mrs. Jones, you haven't seen the room .... just wait." "That doesn't have anything to do with it," she replied. "Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged ... it's how I arrange my mind. I already decided to love it ... It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up. I have a choice; I can spend the day in bed recounting the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work, or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do. Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open I'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I've stored away ... just for this time in my life."

Donkey in the well

One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally he decided the animal was old, that the well needed to be covered anyway and that it just wasn't worth retrieving the donkey. So he invited all his neighbours to come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well. At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement, he quietened down. A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well and was astonished at what he saw. With every shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was doing something amazing. He would shake it off and take a step up. As the farmer's neighbours continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and trotted off! Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. The trick to getting out of the well is to shake it off and take a step up.

The Duck & the Devil

There was a little boy visiting his grandparents on their farm. He was given a slingshot to play with out in the woods. He practiced in the woods; but he could never hit the target. Getting a little discouraged, he headed back for dinner.



As he was walking back he saw Grandma's pet duck. Just out of impulse, he let the slingshot fly, hit the duck square in the head and killed it. He was shocked and grieved! In a panic, he hid the dead duck in the wood pile; only to see his sister watching! Sally had seen it all, but she said nothing After lunch the next day Grandma said, "Sally, let's wash the dishes"

But Sally said, "Grandma, Johnny told me he wanted to help in the kitchen." Then she whispered to him, "Remember the duck?" So Johnny did the dishes. Later that day, Grandpa asked if the children wanted to go fishing and Grandma said, "I'm sorry but I need Sally to help make supper."

Sally just smiled and said, "Well that's all right because Johnny told me he wanted to help" She whispered again, "Remember the duck?" So Sally went fishing and Johnny stayed to help.

After several days of Johnny doing both his chores and Sally's; he finally couldn't stand it any longer.

He came to Grandma and confessed that he had killed the duck. Grandma knelt down, gave him a hug and said, "Sweetheart, I know. You see, I was standing at the window and I saw the whole thing, but because I love you, I forgave you. I was just wondering how long you would let Sally make a slave of you."

Whatever is in your past, whatever you have done... And the devil keeps throwing it up in your face (lying, cheating, debt, fear, bad habits, hatred, anger, bitterness, etc.)...whatever it is...You need to know that God was standing at the window and He saw the whole thing. He has seen your whole life. He wants you to know that He loves you and that you are forgiven.

He's just wondering how long you will let the devil make a slave of you.

The great thing about God is that when you ask for forgiveness; He not only forgives you, but He forgets. It is by God's grace and mercy that we are saved.

Go ahead and make the difference in someone's life today. Share this with a friend and always remember:
God is at the window!

When Jesus died on the cross; He was thinking of you!

A Bridge Made from a Mallet and Three Nails

We all know what a bridge is of course but I want to discuss about this very unique bridge that only one man can make and in fact he already did...with only a mallet and three nails, this bridge was done.

A man who is pure in heart, blameless, free from sins, righteous, always seek what is the Father's will and has a heart as humble as a servant...thats what He is, Jesus did make a bridge for you and for me my dear friend. Indeed there's no greater love than this...

Satan wants to stop us from coming to God's presence, he doesn't want us to surrender our life to God but here's a good news I want to tell you...

God made a way for you and for me to come
boldly to His presence through His son Jesus to receive mercy, grace and help.



Now it's your part, my part to take a step on that bridge
which leads to eternal life with Him.
A bridge of an intimate relationship with God.

There are four kinds of bridge that I know and I want you to make a decision on which bridge will you take for you to enjoy a life together with Him.

The first bridge is Money ...
The second one is Religion ...
The third one is Good Deeds...
The last one is Faith...Faith unto Jesus, believing on God above that He sent His only Son Jesus Christ for all of us to save us from all our unrighteousness.

Which bridge will you take?

I truly believe that this is not an accident that you are reading this article but I want to tell you, God really loves you that He set this appointment for you to read.

If you want to accept Christ as your Savior and turn from your sins, you can ask Him right now to be your Savior and Lord by praying a prayer like this:

"Lord Jesus, I believe you are the Son of God. Thank you for dying on the cross for my sins. Please forgive my sins and give me the gift of eternal life. I ask you in to my life and heart to be my Lord and Savior. Thank you for writing my name in the book of life. I want to serve you always. Amen"

Ecclesiastes 12:1

“Remember your Creator in the days of your youth.”

Young person, grasp hold of this nugget of truth!



When satan paints a pretty picture,

And tells you that sin is fun,

Don’t look at what he tries to offer,

But from that temptation run!



Satan says, “You can serve God later.

This moment make no commitment or vow.”

But the Bible tells us indeed,

The time to live for God is right now!



When satan says, “Parent’s aren’t cool.

They’re really a pain and a bother.”

Remember God’s Word says there’s great reward

In honoring mother and father.



The Bible says to be an example.

Young person, grasp hold of this truth.

For what greater gift could you give the Lord

Than to serve Him in your precious youth!

Deeper In Love

Verse 1
There is a longing
only You can fill
A raging tempest
only You can still
My soul is thirsty Lord
to know You as I'm known
Drink from the river
that flows before Your throne

Chorus
Take me deeper
Deeper in love with You
Jesus hold me close in Your embrace
Take me deeper
Deeper than I've ever been before
I just want to love You more and more
How I long to be deeper in love

Verse 2
Sunrise to sunrise
I will seek Your face
Drawn by the Spirit
to the promise of Your grace
My heart has found in You
a hope that will abide
Here in Your presence
forever satisfied

(Repeat Chorus 2 times)

How I long to be deeper in love

A qoute to ponder upon

Every house has a foundation, without one it could not be stable or stay standing for long. It will have to stand against storms, earthquakes, weathering. Etc. The better the foundation, the more durable the house, the same is true in life, if we establish an early found­ation based on a relationship with God we will more easily endure the storms of life. The patterns of our life are set in youth, so set them in Christ! This is what it means to

“REMEMBER YOUR CREATOR
IN THE DAYS OF YOUR YOUTH!”

"Creating a Good Pattern in Your Youth Days"


BILL GAITHER TELLS THE STORY OF HOW HE AND HIS WIFE GLORIA WERE ABLE TO PURCHASE A PIECE OF LAND THEY DESIRED IN INDIANA SHORTLY AFTER THEY WERE MARRIED. THEY WERE TEACHING SCHOOL IN HIS HOME TOWN OF ALEXANDRIA, INDIANA AND THEY WANTED A PIECE OF LAND TO BUILD A HOUSE ON. THEY NOTICED A PARCEL OF LAND SOUTH OF TOWN WHERE CATTLE GRAZED, AND HE LEARNED IT BELONGED TO A 92 YEAR RETIRED BANKER NAMED MR. YULE. HE OWNED A LOT OF LAND IN THE AREA AND THE WORD WAS OUT THAT HE WOULD SELL NONE OF IT TO ANYONE. THE 92 YEAR OLD BANKER ALWAYS GAVE THE SAME ANWER TO ANYONE WHO ASKED ABOUT BUYING LAND, “I PROMISED TO LET FARMERS USE IT FOR THEIR CATTLE, CAN’T SELL IT.” GLORIA AND HE WENT TO THE BANK WHERE HE STILL WENT IN FOR A FEW HOURS A DAY TO WORK AND REQUESTED HIM TO CONSIDER SELLING SOME LAND TO THEM. THE OLD MAN LOOKED OVER HIS BIFOCALS AT BILL GAITHER AND SAID STRAIGHTFORWARDLY, “AIN’T SELLING!” BILL GAITHER RESPONDED, “I KNOW, BUT WE TEACH SCHOOL HERE AND THOUGHT MAYBE YOU’D BE INTERESTED IN SELLING TO SOMEONE PLANNING TO SETTLE IN THE AREA.” THE OLD MAN CURIOUSLY ASKED, “WHAT DID YOU SAY YOUR NAME WAS YOUNG MAN?” BILL REPLIED, “GAITHER, BILL GAITHER SIR. THE OLD MAN SAID, “HMMM, ANY RELATION TO GROVER GAITHER”’ “YES SIR” SAID BILL, “THAT WAS MY GRANDFATHER.” MR. YULE THEN PUT DOWN HIS PAPER AND REMOVED HIS GLASSES AND SAID, “THAT’S INTERESTING, GROVER GAITHER WAS THE BEST WORKER I EVER HAD ON MY FARM, FULL DAY’S WORK FOR A DAY’S PAY, AND SO HONEST. WHAT’D YOU SAY YOU WANTED YOUNG MAN?” BILL GAITHER AGAIN ASKED ABOUT THE LAND AND THE OLD MAN SAID FOR HIM TO COME BACK A COUPLE DAYS LATER, HE WOULD THINK ABOUT IT. A WEEK LATER HE WENT BACK AND THE OLD MAN SAID OK -- AND ONLY $3,800 FOR 15 ACRES! IT WAS WORTH MORE THAN 3 TIMES THAT. THE GOOD NAME OF HIS GRANDDAD HAD WON HIM THAT LAND! A WONDERFUL PATTERN HAD BEEN SET IN HIS FAMILY BY AN EARLY RELATIVE THAT PAID DIVIDENDS GENERATIONS LATER! – SOURCE UNKNOWN

“REMEMBER YOUR CREATOR IN THE DAYS OF YOUR YOUTH!”
Ecclesiastes 12:1-8, 13

We have only one chance to be young, how critical for youth to recognize the importance of knowing God at this stage of their life, they will later look back and thank God for the knowledge of the Lord when young!
Remembering God while young will also help you fight against the temptations of youth and thus avoid consequences that can last a lifetime.
Many young people ruin their lives or complicate them later by ignoring God’s laws when young!

May this passage encourage you to deepen your walk with your Creator.... ;-)

$50, 000 monthly just by selling on eBay

"Because the Internet is a fickle place where ideas and strategies change constantly, I felt it was time for me to make a change and find an easier way to make money on the net but still use my internet marketing skills. You see, I was making money on the Net but nothing like what I'm about to share with you now.

Last year I started selling stuff on eBay. It was fun, easy and instantly profitable. (love that bit ;-) I was immediately hooked and couldn't stop talking about eBay. I drove everyone nuts. They'd tell me to shut up....until I told them that I was making a cool $50,000 a month on eBay selling just a few things. It had only been 9 months since I'd started."

Wonderful Feelings



Beautiful eyes open across a pillow top,
It seems for this moment time will stop,
The earth slows and sounds wane,
A frozen moment without stain.

Your body close to mine,
Our hearts beat in time,
With a smile of simple pleasure,
This moment should last forever.

Some say perfection is unattainable
For most things that's explainable,
But in your arms and with your heart's affection
I have found a brief moment of perfection.
