  • Only….

     

    “I’ve only got seventy-five years on this earth at best. I want to use them to give someone the Bible.”

    Chet Bitterman, martyr for Christ

     

    What better way to use those “seventy-five” years God has given to us?

  •  

    1 Chronicles 16:34
     Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good!
          His faithful love endures forever.

     

    SIMPLE LIVING QUOTE


    “Too many people spend money they haven’t earned, to buy
    things they don’t want, to impress people they don’t like.”

  • Tired…..?

     

    I got these from an email my mom sent me. I couldn’t help but post!

     child in shoe  

    Isaiah 40:31
    But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

    cat on furnace  

    2 Thessalonians 3:13
    But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing.

    cat in food

    Galatians 6:9
    And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

    child fell over

    Matthew 11:28
    Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

    child with chopsticks

    Psalm 4:8
    I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.

    cat and toy

    Job 11:18
    And thou shalt be secure, because there is hope; yea, thou shalt dig about thee, and thou shalt take thy rest in safety.

  • Created on Purpose…..

     

    Revelation 4:11 (New International Version)
       “You are worthy, our Lord and God,
       to receive glory and honor and power,
       for you created all things,
          and by your will they were created
          and have their being.”

     

    Isn’t it great knowing that you were created on purpose, for a purpose! He loves and wants us. I do have to ask myself  why sometimes but the fact still remains true EVERY day that it was His will that I was created!

    Speaking of creating…my Yoder family friends have a VERY new creation in their family. Click over and see just how cute “little” Grant is!

  • Ecclesiastes 4:12

     A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken.
