SEEKING AND STRIVING

"I am seeking, I am striving, I am in it with all my heart" ~VINCENT VAN GOGH~

VERSE TO REMEMBER

"Therefore, receiving as we now do, a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us cherish thankfulness so that we may ever offer to God an acceptable service, with Godly reverence and awe." ~HEBREWS 12:28~

THANKS

If someone is kind to me. I can certainly take the time to write a thank-you not or call them.

THANKS

We take for grantid that others know how grateful we are for their kindness and thoughtfulness towards us. We don't really need to send a card or make a phone call, do we? But think how touched we are when someone sends us a special thank you. Thanking others is merely a social formality. It is an act of kindness and thoughtfulness in it's own right.

THANKS

"No duty is more urgent than that of returning thanks." ~JAMES ALLEN~

VERSE TO REMEMBER

"After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you." ~1 Peter 5:10"

HELPING WORDS

It is important to me to show, with words and deeds, that I care when someone close to me needs help.

HELPING WORDS

When friends and family members are troubled, we wonder what we can say to them that will really matter. In times of great sorrow or distress, even the kindest words can seem trite or ineffectual. Often, though, its not what we say that matters, but that we care enough to say something. The words don't matter so much as the thoughts and feelings behind them. And we should never underestimate how much sympathetic thoughts and feelings mean to those in trouble.

HELPING WORDS

"A helping word to one in trouble is often like a switch in the railroad track...an inch between a wreck and smooth rolling prosperity" ~HENRY WARD BEECHER~

VERSE TO REMEMBER-GOD'S COMPASSION

"For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosover believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." ~JOHN 3:16~
