    Drink, Steal, Swear & Lie

    DRINK, STEAL, SWEAR & LIE

    I met this guy while in the USA and he has a motto he lives by everyday.
    He said listen carefully and live by these 4 rules : Drink, Steal, Swear, & Lie.

    I was shaking my head 'no', but he then told me to listen while he explained his four rules.
     
    So here they are :

    1. DRINK from the "springs of living water" every day.

    2. STEAL a moment to help someone that is in worse shape than you are.

    3. SWEAR that you will be a better person today than yesterday.

    4. And last, but not least, when you LIE down at night thank God you live in Canada and have freedom.

    I am not as good as I should be.
    I am not as good as I could be.
    But THANK GOD I am better than I used to be!

    I believe...





                                               I BELIEVE.......

       I Believe . . . Have a seat relax and
       read this slowly. This sums it all up .

       I believe -
       .. . that just because two people argue, it doesn't
       mean they don't love each other. And just because they
       don't argue, it doesn't mean they do.

       I believe -
       .. . . that we don't have to change friends if we
       understand that friends change.

       I believe -
       .. . . that no matter how good a friend is, they're
       going to hurt you every once in a while and you must
       forgive them for that.

       I believe -
       .. . that true friendship continues to grow, even
       over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.

       I believe -
       .. . . that you can do something in an instant that
       will give you heartache for life.

       I believe -
       .. . . that it's taking me a long time to become the
       person I want to be.

       I believe -
       .. . that you should always leave loved ones with
       loving words. It may be the last time you see them.

       I believe -
       .. . that you can keep going long after you think
       you can't.

       I believe -
       .. . . that we are responsible for what we do, no
       matter how we feel.

       I believe -
       .. . that either you control your attitude or it
       controls you.

       I believe -
       .. . That heroes are the people who do what has to
       be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the
       consequences.

       I believe -
       .. that money is a lousy way of keeping score.

       I believe -
       .. . that my best friend and I can do anything or
       nothing and have the best time.

       I believe -
       .. . that sometimes the people you expect to kick
       you when you're down, will be the ones to help you get
       back up.

       I believe -
       .. . that sometimes when I'm angry I have the right
       to be angry, but that doesn't give me the right to be
       cruel.

       I believe -
       .. . that maturity has more to do with what types of
       experiences you've had and what you've learned from
       them and less to do with how many birthdays you've
       celebrated.

       I believe -
       .. . . that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by
       others. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive
       yourself.

       I believe -
       .. . . that no matter how bad your heart is broken the
       world doesn't stop for your grief.

       I believe -
       .. . . that our background and circumstances may have
       influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who
       we become.

       I believe -
       .. . . that you shouldn't be so eager to find out a
       secret. It could change your life forever.

       I believe -
       .. . . two people can look at the exact same thing and
       see something totally different.

       I believe -
       .. . that your life can be changed in a matter of
       hours by people who don't even know you.

       I believe -
       .. . that even when you think you have no more to
       give, when a friend cries out to you -you will find
       the strength to help.

       I believe -
       .... that credentials on the wall do not make you a
       decent human being.

       I believe -
       .. . . that the people you care about most in life are
       taken from you too soon.

       I believe -
       .. . . that you should send this to all of the people
       that you believe in. I just did

    As we grow up

     
     
    As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that
    wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will.
    You will  have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time.
     You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken.
    You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did.
    You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and  you'll eventually lose someone you love.
    So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt
    because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.
    Don't be afraid that your life will end, be afraid that it will never begin.

    Thought of the Day

     
    Laugh loudly and as often as you can.
    Smile at a stranger. Bless people with your joy.
    If you don’t have joy,
    then ask God to guide your heart toward the joy found in Christ.

    One of the best things
    to hold onto in this world
    is a friend.
     
     
     Lord open my eyes to Your desires for me.
    Then, make Your desires mine.

    A Time for Everything


    Ecclesiastes 3:1-4

     
        1 There is a time for everything,
           and a season for every activity under heaven:
        2 a time to be born and a time to die,
           a time to plant and a time to uproot,
        3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
           a time to tear down and a time to build,
        4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
           a time to mourn and a time to dance,

    Life may not always be the party we hoped for

    But while we are here we might as well dance

    PEOPLE MAY NOT REMEMBER EXACTLY WHAT YOU DID, OR WHAT YOU SAID,
    BUT,THEY WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER HOW YOU MADE THEM FEEL.

    Recall

    The Maker of all human beings is recalling all units manufactured, regardless of make or year, due to a serious defect in the primary and central component of the heart. This is due to malfunction in the original prototype units code named "Adam" and "Eve", resulting in the reproduction of the same defect in all subsequent units. 

    This defect has been technically termed "Subsequent Internal Non-morality", or more commonly known as S.I.N., as it is primarily expressed. 

    Some other symptoms: 

    1. Loss of direction
    2. Foul vocal emissions
    3. Amnesia of origin
    4. Lack of peace and joy
    5. Selfish or violent behavior
    6. Depression or confusion in the mental component
    7. Fearfulness
    8. Idolatry
    9. Rebellion 

    The Manufacturer, who is neither liable nor at fault for this defect, is providing factory authorized repair and service free of charge to correct this S.I.N. defect. 

    The Repair Technician, JESUS, has most generously offered to bear the entire burden of the staggering cost of these repairs. There is no additional fee required. 

    The number to call in all areas is: P-R-A-Y-E-R. Once connected, please upload your burden of S.I.N. through the REPENTANCE procedure. Next, download ATONEMENT from the Repair Technician, JESUS, into the heart component. No matter how big or small the S.I.N. defect is, JESUS will replace it with: 

    1. Love
    2. Joy
    3. Peace
    4. Patience
    5. Kindness
    6. Goodness
    7. Faithfulness
    8. Gentleness
    9. Self control 

    Please see the operating manual, the B.I.B.L.E (Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth), for further details on the use of these fixes. 

    WARNING: Continuing to operate the human being unit without correction voids any manufacturer warranties, exposing the unit to dangers and problems too numerous to list and will result in the human unit being permanently impounded. For free emergency service, call on JESUS.  


    DANGER: The human being units not responding to this recall action will have to be scrapped in the furnace. The S.I.N. defect will not be permitted to enter Heaven, so as to prevent contamination of that facility. 


    Thank you for your attention! 

    GOD 


    P. S. Please assist where possible by notifying others of this important recall notice! 


    "A friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart"
