Think about this.

Ask yourself this question today: Do I have a few really close friends who I can trust or do I have tons of friends who sometimes don't really care for me? Answer this question then think about it. I would say that I would rather have the closer friends. Speaking of, I have two, Melissa and Emma. I have wrote a little about them in an earlier post. They are my sisters. I love them. Almost everyone I know is having a problem with this. Problem: Having all of the friends, but not having any close ones. Having the close friends, but not having tons of friends. I have always wanted allot of friends, but I never got them. I have my close friends and I have learned to accept that in a good way. I know someone who has all of the friends, but has a hard time connecting with them. All in all, learn to be happy with your friends, love them, connect with them, and learn to be happy with whom God has placed in your path of life.

God gave you brain. You might as well use it.

"DAAADDYYY! I'm thirsty!"

Here is a little story I was told in church Sunday. I thought it was funny, so I will tell it to you.
There was a dad putting his son to bed. "You used the restroom?" "Yes, dad" "Anything else before I leave? Once I'm gone you loose your chance." "Nope." "O.K. Goodnight son." "Goodnight daddy." Then the dad shuts the door and leaves. 5 minutes later "DAAAddYYYY! " , the son yells, " Can you bring me a glass of water! I am thirsty!" "No son. You already had your chance." 5 minutes later "DAAAADDYYYY!", the son yells," Can you bring me a glass of water! I am thirsty!" "No son! I gave you a chance and you didn't use it! Ask me one more time and I will come in there and give you a spanking!" 2minutes later "DAAADDYYY! When you come in here to give me a spanking, can you bring me a glass of water! I am thirsty!"

God vs. Money: Who do you think should win?

Then Jesus said to them," Be careful and guard against ll kinds of greed. Life is not measured by how much one owns."

Luke 12:15

"So much stuff to shop for, and so little time......" Has that ever gone through through your head before? It probably has. Let's hope that your not building you life around that next visit to the mall. The problem is that many people are. Today, people are obsessed with money and everything that it can buy. God is not. Should you be? God cares about people not their possessions, we should think like that too. Everyday we must try to resist the great temptation of placing possessions ahead of people. We must do our best to love our neighbors as ourselves.

Hear this: money is no evil, worshipping it is. You have got to remember that God is almighty and money is not. Worship God and you are blessed. Worship the dollar, we are punished and our punishment comes sooner rather than later.

"As faithful stewards of what we have, ought we not to give earnest thought to our staggering surplus?" Elizabeth Elliot

"It's sobering to contemplate how much time, effort, sacrifice, compromise, and attention we give to acquiring and increasing our supply of something that is totally insignificant in eternity."

Anne Graham Lotz

"When possessions become our god, we become materialistic and greedy...... and we forfeit our contentment and our joy." Charles Swindoll

" When we put people before possessions in our hearts, we are sowing seeds of enduring satisfaction." Beverly LaHaye

"I have held many things in my hands, and I have lost them all; but whatever I have placed in God's hands, that I still possess." Holocaust survivor Corrie ten Boom

Remember that your real riches are in heaven and to always place God First. Everything we have, we borrow from God.
