15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye, but don’t worry, God never blinks.

31. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

32. Don’t take yourself so seriously. No one else does.

33. Believe in miracles.

34. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn’t do.

35. Don’t audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.

36. Growing old beats the alternative of dying young.

37. Your children get only one childhood.

38. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.

39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.

40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else’s, we’d grab ours back.

41. Envy is a waste of time. Accept what you already have, not what you need

42. The best is yet to come…

43. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.

44. Yield.

45. Life isn’t tied with a bow, but it’s still a gift.”

God Knows Our Thoughts

But He was aware all along of their thoughts…                      Luke 6:8

 

It is sobering to realize that God always knows all of our thoughts!  Our blessing and our problems are rooted in either right or wrong thinking.  We reap what we sow, and that is spiritual law that we cannot avoid.  Thoughts are seeds that produce a harvest in our lives.

If we want more peace, or be more joyful, we will need to improve our thoughts.  If we want to be able to do more, then we must not think and meditate on what we cannot do and how weak we are.  You cannot change your life without changing your thoughts.

The Bible even says that God knows when we sit down and when we get up, and He knows out thoughts from afar (see Palm 139:2)  Keeping in mind that none of our thoughts are a secret from God may help us be more willing to think according to His will.  Your thoughts do matter.  They turn into your words, your attitudes, your moods and your behavior.

Before you get up in the morning, practice “on purpose” thinking.  Think according to what you want to have, not according what you have always had in the past.  God is doing a new thing in your life and He wants you think accordingly.

KINDNESS BEGETS UNSELFISHNESS

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness..” – Galatians 5:22 

Do you realize how important it is to be kind? You might as well ask, “How important is water or oxygen?” In fact, more important than work, money, careers, success, or anything…is KINDNESS! God must agree with this because Proverbs 19:22 tells us, “What is desirable in a man is kindness.”

A TV network affiliates had a long-running campaign called “Random Acts of Kindness.” Their news anchors went out into the community and paid for someone’s lunch or gas, or they did something like taking bottles of water to people who are working out in the heat. Their only request was that the recipient of their kindness would pass it on to someone else. Kindness begets unselfishness, and we all could be a little less selfish!

Acts of kindness inspire us, whether it’s taking time to help an employee at the office, or defending a person being picked on by bullies. The recipients of these acts of kindness are always grateful.

The one person who comes to mind when I think of kindness is Jesus Christ. He shows us that God is kind. And because He is so kind to us, we are to be kind to one another. Especially in a busy world where so many seem to be looking out for number one, acts of kindness are always welcomed.
