If God gave you roses and then you ask, "Why are there no thorns?"
God would just smile and show His bleeding hands saying...
"I took them away, to save you from pain." UNKNOWN
I believe in the sun even if it isn't shining. I believe in love even when I am alone. I believe in God even when He is silent. UNKNOWN
The purpose of Christianity is not to avoid difficulty, but to produce a character adequate to meet it when it comes. It does not make life easy; rather it tries to make us great enough for life. ~ James L. Christensen ~
Stupidity is also a gift of God, but one mustn't misuse it. ~ Pope John Paul II ~
More people are troubled by what is plain in Scripture than by what is obscure.
~ Roy L. Smith ~
Jesus, protect me from your followers!
The Bible tells us to love our neighbors, and also to love our enemies; probably because they are generally the same people.
~ Gilbert K. Chesterton ~
Prayer
God answers Knee-Mail.
Come As You Are
You are not too bad to come in and you are not too good to stay out.
Nutrition
The best vitamin for a Christian is B1.
Cosmetic Surgery
Come in and have your faith lifted.
Refunds
Try Jesus. If you don't like Him, the devil will gladly take you back.
Two Ears
Since God gave us two ears and one mouth, He must have wanted us to do twice as much listening as talking.
Stand
If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything.
Unconditional Love
Yes, God loves us all, but He favors "fruits of the spirit" over "religious nuts!"
The Message
Our job isn't to change the message. Our job is to let the message change us.
God's Will
The will of God will not take you to where the grace of God will not protect you.
Best Formula
1 cross + 3 nails = 4 given.
Problems
The problem ahead of us is never as great as the Power behind us.
Peace
Peace starts with a smile.
Benefits
Working for God does not pay much, but His retirement plan is out of this world.
Jesus Was What??
It's natural for us to think of Jesus as being like us. And there are compelling reasons for us to do so. Here are some good ones:
Jesus was Italian:
He had wine with His meals.
He used olive oil.
He talked with His hands.
Jesus was Black:
He liked Gospel.
He called everyone brother.
He couldn't get a fair trial.
Jesus was Jewish:
He lived at home until he was 33 years old.
He went into His father's business.
He was sure His mother was a virgin and His mother was sure He was God.
Jesus was Irish:
He was always telling stories.
He loved green pastures.
He never got married.
Jesus was a Californian:
He walked around bare footed.
He never cut His hair.
He started a new religion.
Jesus was a woman:
He kept trying to get a message across to a bunch of guys who just didn't get it.
He fed a crowd at a moment's notice when there was no food.
Even after He died, He had to get up because there was work to do.
Life of the Devout, is life, indeed, with all sorts of extras, thrown in the mix! It is one of LOVE, FAITH, HOPE, PEACE, GOODNESS, GOOD WILL, GOOD CHEER, and, a general tendency to LIVE IN THE POSITIVE, no matter what the oppressor is up to! It is KNOWING that *GOD* has our back, and, that, HE can, and, WILL, do what is necessary, to make sure, our passage TO HIM, is a safe, and, productive one! While there IS work to be done, it is obvious, in various matters, that, *GOD*, our LORD, and, SAVIOUR, also, has a keen sense of humour, and, encourages us to partake in the lifting of spirits, through a good laugh! Laughter is good for the soul, is used to heal, and, is a natural high; it keeps us young, joyous, and, appreciative! Balance is key to producing, to maintaining, and, to overcoming, therefore, LOVE, LIVE, LAUGH!!!
