Don't Give Up

One day a young man was walking along an isolated road when he heard
something like a crying sound. He couldn't tell for sure what the sound
was but it seemed to be coming from underneath a bridge. As he approached
the bridge, the sound got louder and then he saw a pathetic sight. There,
lying in the muddy riverbed, was a puppy about two months old. It had a
gash on its head and was covered with mud. Its front legs were swollen
where they had been tight...

Do You Believe In Miracles?

Well, it all started on August 5th, I was in my house eating dinner. I just started having intense pain in my head and I didn't know what it was; it felt like my head was ready to burst. So I knew this was something that needed help and my kids probably wouldn't be able to help. So I went next door to my neighbors house, and oh boy, I started getting very sick. I lost my vision and I couldn't hear. I thought I was dying. My friend call...

10 Things You Shall Not Do


 1. You shall not worry, for worry is the most unproductive of all human activities.

2. You shall not be fearful, for most of the things we fear never come to pass.

3. You shall not carry grudges, for they are the heaviest of all life's burdens.

4. You shall face each problem as it comes. You can only handle one at a time anyway.

5. You shall not take problems to bed with you, for they make very poor bedfellows...

Really Do I Need God?

As I joined a local brownie group, I was obliged to attend two church services a year. I couldn't help but examine my watch every 5 minutes and as I was only about 8 it was no big deal. As I progressed to Guides 
I began to get bored with such things as making cookies and going to church, so I left. 

I'm not nasty and I'd like to think I am a decent person, but I never had God in my life, but it didn't matter, well not then. I even denied t...

Daily Encouragement For March 13:

In a class I teach for adults, I gave the assignment to "go
to someone you love, and tell them that you love them." At the
beginning of the next class, one of the students began by saying, "I
was angry with you last week when you gave us this assignment. I
didn't feel I had anyone to say those words to. But as I began driving
home my conscience started talking. Then I knew exactly who I
needed to say `I love you' to.

Five years ago, my father and I had a vicious di...

Daily Encouragement For March 05:

God gives us the ingredients to make our daily bread, but He expects us to do the baking.

Triumph takes just the right ingredients, add a pinch of "try" and a lot of "umph."

When God measures a man, He puts the tape around the heart, not the head.

The best times in life are made a thousand times better when they are shared with God.

To have the best relationships, treat your family like friends and your friends like family.

Can't sleep, give your troubles over t...

An elderly carpenter was ready to retire. He told his employer contractor of his plans to leave the house building business and live a more leisurely life with his wife enjoying his extended family.

He would miss the paycheck, but he needed to retire. They could get by. The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor.

The carpenter said yes, but in time it was easy to see that his heart wa...

Daily Encouragement For February 21:

A much loved minister of God once carried a secret burden of long past sin deep in his heart. He had committed the sin many years before, after he received Christ, but was now serving God in the ministry faithfully. No one knew what he had done, but they did know he had repented of what he did long ago. Even so, he had suffered years of remorse over the incident without any sense of God's forgiveness.

One day, he approached a woman that attended the churc...

Daily Encouragement For February 14:

Every Sunday afternoon, after the morning service at their church, the Pastor and his 11-year-old son would go out into their town and hand out Gospel tracts. This particular Sunday afternoon, as it came time for the Pastor and his son to go to the streets with their tracts, it was very cold outside as well as pouring down rain. The boy bundled up in his warmest and driest clothes and said "Okay Dad, I'm ready." 

His Pastor Dad asked, "Ready for what?”
"D...
