Sunday Devotional

This quote was in my daily "Amish Perpetual Calendar", which I just adore!!

"What you are is Gods gift to you.......what you make of yourself is your gift to God."

He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vain persons is void of understanding.  Proverbs 12:11

The way of a fool is right in his own eyes : but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.

Proverbs 12:15

Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly...But his delight is in the law of the Lord...he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water....

You will never offend a person by returning a smile!!

Dwell On The Gladness

Life is too short to dwell on my sorrows,

to harbour my grudges in bitter tomorrows.

Life is too short to dwell on my pain,

to play and re-play some vengeful refrain.

Life is too sweet to waste precious minutes

in nursing resentment, self-righteousness in it.

Then, let me not dwell on life's sorrow and sadness,

O Lord, let me think of life's blessings, with gladness!

  --Nancy Neff Dostie

If I Should Try

If I should try to count the things

That God has done for me,

Then I would find it hard to do,

It would take eternity.

If I should try to count the ways

In which he chose to bless,

I know I could not find the words,

His goodness to express.

If I should try to tell it all,

I never would succeed;

For he has always faithful been,

To give more than I ever need.

--Cora M. Owen

The Love of God

As high as the highest, shining star,

As deep as the blue of the sea;

As wide as the silent realms of space,
As broad as the heaven, too--
So high--so deep--so wide--so broad,
Is the wonderful love of God.
