MAY PRAYER 2011

As we read the Bible we get to know GOD’S Word better. Throughout the Bible GOD has a positive message for us. A message of love , forgiveness , faith and looking ahead. And who could explain that message BETTER than the the words below titled “ different set of commandments ”

1] PRAYER IS NOT A “SPARE WHEEL” THAT YOU PULL OUT WHEN IN TROUBLE; IT IS A “STEERING WHEEL” THAT DIRECTS US IN THE RIGHT PATH THROUGHOUT LIFE.

2] DO YOU KNOW WHY A CAR’S WINDSHIELD IS SO LARGE & THE REAR VIEW MIRROR SO SMALL? BECAUSE OUR PAST IS NOT AS IMPORTANT AS OUR FUTURE. SO LOOK AHEAD AND MOVE ON.

3] FRIENDSHIP IS LIKE A BOOK. IT TAKES A FEW SECONDS TO BURN, BUT A YEAR TO WRITE.

4] ALL THINGS IN LIFE ARE TEMPORARY. IF GOING WELL ENJOY IT,THEY WILL NOT LAST FOR EVER{LIKE CHILDREN GROWING UP TOO QUICK OR YOUTH FADING INTO OLD AGE] IF THINGS GOING WRONG DON’T WORRY,THEY WON’T LAST LONG EITHER.

5] OLD FRIENDS ARE LIKE GOLD! NEW FRIENDS ARE DIAMONDS! IF YOU GET A DIAMOND, DON’T FORGET THE GOLD. BECAUSE TO HOLD A DIAMOND, YOU ALWAYS NEED A BASE OF GOLD.

6] OFTEN WE LOOSE HOPE AND THINK THIS IS THE END, GOD SMILES FROM ABOVE AND SAYS,”RELAX, SWEETHEART, IT’S JUST A BEND, NOT THE END.

7] WHEN GOD SOLVES YOUR PROBLEMS, YOU HAVE FAITH IN HIS ABILITIES; WHEN GOD DOESN’T SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS HE HAS FAITH IN YOUR CAPABILITIES.

8] WHEN YOU PRAY FOR OTHERS, GOD LISTENS TO YOU AND BLESSES THEM, AND WHEN YOU ARE SAFE AND HAPPY, REMEMBER THAT SOME ONE HAS PRAYED FOR YOU.

9] A BLIND PERSON ASKED ST. ANTHONY; CAN ANYTHING BE WORSE THAN LOOSING EYE SIGHT ? ST ANTHONY REPLIED, “ YES LOOSING YOUR VISION”.

10] WORRYING DOES NOT TAKE AWAY TOMORROW’S PROBLEMS, IT TAKES AWAY TODAYS PEACE.
