Anyone who listens to my teaching and obeys me is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse, because it is built on rock. Matthew 7:24 – 25(Click here for more)

How wonderful it is, how pleasant, when brothers live together in harmony! For harmony is as precious as the fragrant anointing oil that was poured over Aaron’s head, that ran down his beard and onto the border of his robe. Harmony is as refreshing as the dew from Mount Hermon that falls on the mountains of Zion. And the LORD has pronounced his blessing.
Time is a physician that heals every grief. Don’t hold on to the past so tightly that it leaves your arms too full to embrace the present. An apology is a good way to have the last word.
WHEN NOTHING SEEMS TO MAKE SENSE.DON’T DEMAND TO UNDERSTAND,DON’T FAIL TO BE FAITHFUL,DON’T BOW TO BITTERNESS,DON’T BE UNWILLING TO WAIT.DON’T LET YOUR DREAMS DISSOLVE,CONTINUE TO SERVE THE LORD AND NEVER QUIT.
The most beautiful discovery true friends make is that they can grow separately without growing apart. If the only prayer you said in your whole life was, “thank you ,” that would suffice. No road is long with good company.
Beauty is what you see in life, joy is how you experience it. Nothing great is ever accomplished without enthusiasm. You give a little when you give of your possessions, but you truly give when you give of yourself.
We should never let what we can’t do interfere with what we can do. Thankfully, God’s answers are wiser than our prayers. True purpose has no time limit and knows no deadline. Sometimes when life is fragile, you’ll need to handle with prayer.
True purpose has no time limit and knows no deadline. Sometimes when life is fragile, you’ll need to handle it with prayer. The greater the obstacle, the more glory in overcoming it.

Grace isn’t a little prayer you chant before receiving a meal. It’s a way to live. A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all the other virtues. Give thanks for unknown blessings already on their way. Thankfulness is an attitude! And attitude can have an incredible impact on our lives.
This can be the best day you’ve ever known, once you decide to make it so. Your heart can find beauty in places your eyes will never see. Instead of worrying about being happy, just be happy.
Happiness often sneaks in through a door you didn’t know you left open. It takes 2 people to argue, but only 1 to forgive. Silence is the secret to sanity.
Don’t be pushed by your problems. Be led by your dreams. You always have a choice, even if it is only a choice of your attitude. Wherever there is a human being, there is an opportunity for kindness.
If you have time to whine and complain about something then you have the time to do something about it. Courage is never allowing your actions to be influenced by your fears. The most wasted of all days is one without laughter.
If you don’t like something change it; if you can’t change it, change the way you think about it. You always have a choice, even if it is only a choice of your attitude. Silence is the secret to sanity
If you believe yourself to be beautiful, you’ll become beautiful. The greatest thing in the world is to know how to be yourself. A problem not worth praying about is not worth worrying about.
You don’t choose your family. They are God’s gift to you, as you are to them. Turn your wounds into wisdom. Embrace pain and burn it as fuel for the rest of your journey. Smooth seas do not make skillful sailors. Every survival kit should include a sense of humor.
Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we will remember the name of the Lord our God. Psalm 20:7
Follow your passion, and success will follow you .The purpose of life is a life of purpose. Nothing is more difficult, and therefore more precious, than to be able to decide. Courage is being afraid but going on anyhow.

Perhaps you may stumble, perhaps even fall, But God’s always ready to answer your call .
He knows every heartache, sees every tear. A word from His lips can calm every fear.
Your sorrows may linger throughout the night, but suddenly vanish in dawn’s early light.
The Savior is waiting, somewhere above, to give you His grace, and send you His love.
Whatever your cross, whatever your pain, God always sends rainbows after the rain.
Interpersonal conflicts are an inevitable part of being human. What conflict does to us depends on how we handle them. Conflict can motivate us to make spiritual progress and recommit to hold each other accountable. Conflicts are opportunities for growth if we use them as such.

the Lord hath made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalms 118:24

not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at outward appearance; but
the Lord looks at the heart.” I Samuel 16:7
3. Shut Up!! Say nice things and learn to listen. God
gave us two ears and one mouth, so He must have meant for us to do twice as
much listening as talking. “He who guards his lips guards his soul.”Proverbs 13:3
4. Stand Up!!… For what you believe in. Stand for
something or you will fall for anything.. “Let us not be weary in doing
good; for at the proper time, we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good…” Galatians 6:9-10

EVERYTHING.” Philippians 4:6:

You can’t build your reputation on what you’re going to do, only on what you’ve done. Strong convictions precede great actions. No one learns to make right decisions without being free to make wrong ones. Opportunities are never lost. Someone else will always grab the ones you miss .The best way to improve your looks is to smile.
And you must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength. And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands I am giving you today. Deut.6:4-5

The darker the pathway of faith, the more wonderful shall be the goal and the harvest. And so it pays to walk the pathway of faith, even when the darkest seems to all but overwhelm us.
You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it, because the work of the Son brings glory to the Father. Yes, ask anything in my name, and I will do it! John 14:13-14

POSITIVE THOUGHTS
All of us wish that our spiritual renewal would involve a dramatic escape from slavery to an immediate entrance into the Promised Land. We would love to leave out the wilderness experience in between. But growth and transformation occur within the wilderness. It is in the wilderness that we come to terms with who we are. It is in the wilderness that we discover that we cannot do without God.
Word of the Day
Yes, he humbled you by letting you go hungry and then feeding you with manna, a food previously unknown to you and your ancestors. He did it to teach you that people need more than bread for their life; real life comes by feeding on every word of the LORD. For all these forty years your clothes didn’t wear out, and your feet didn’t blister or swell. So you should realize that just as a parent disciplines a child, the LORD your God disciplines you to help you. Deut 8:3-5

POSITIVE THOUGHTS
Cultivating confidence.
Confident people admits their mistakes, they listen to advice and correct errors quickly. They know themselves, their strength and their weaknesses which allows them to think about others. One of the most important steps to build confidence is to do something good for someone else. When others are grateful for the gift of attention, you feel appreciated and more secure.

POSITIVE THOUGHTS
Trials keep you strong, sorrows keep you human. He who trusts God is independent of the shifting tides of politics or economics or a coming catastrophe. His future depends upon God alone, in whose hands are all things. Only God will keep you going.
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse. Romans 1:18-20

Hope is the feeling that you will succeed tomorrow in what you failed at today. Being thankful is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all others. Crying might happen at night but you can have joy in the morning. True giving happens when we give from our heart. The best preparation for good work tomorrow is to do good work today. A smile costs nothing, yet it can be priceless to the person you give it to.
And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Phil 4:19

POSITIVE THOUGHTS
The greatest danger of the Christian life is to become complacent and lukewarm.
Without fighting there can be no victory and only where you suffer for
something will you experience its joy.
Word of the Day
Wait for the LORD; be strong, and let your heart take courage; yea, wait for the LORD!
Psalms 27:14

POSITIVE THOUGHTS
Opportunity knocks, but it has never been known to turn the knob and walk in! Being kind is more important than being right. When you harbor bitterness, happiness finds someplace else to dock. Before you can live on top of the mountain, you have to do the work of climbing it.
Be glad for all God is planning for you. Be patient in trouble, and always be prayerful. Romans12: 12

Bearing Each Other’s Burdens
The body of Christ is not a place of self-sufficiency. It is a place of interdependency. When we share each other’s troubles and problems, we are fulfilling the law of love. Our burdens bring us together. As we allow others to get under our burdens and help us bear them, we find our love and appreciation growing. Our weakness calls forth others’ strength. As we serve others, we sow the seeds of support that will bear fruit when we most need it. (Read Galatians 6:1-10)
Word of the Day
God has many different ways of helping us. We should not lose courage if help does not come in the particular way we had expected. Faith is more precious than gold which though perishable is tested by fire. (1Peter 1:7)

POSITIVE THOUGHTS
True love is neither physical, nor romantic!
True love is an acceptance of all that is, has been, will be, and will not be.
Peace is seeing a sunset and knowing who to thank.
The happiest people don’t necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the best of everything they have. Amen!

A gem cannot be polished without friction nor a man perfected without adversity. Expect miraculous victories in the face of impossible odds.
Romans 5:3-5
Word of the Day
*We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they are good for us – they help us learn to endure.
*And endurance develops strength of character in us, and character strengthens our confident expectation of salvation.
*And this expectation will not disappoint us. For we know how dearly God loves us, because he has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with his love.

You must feel confident enough within yourself to follow your own dreams. You must be willing to make sacrifices.
You must be capable of changing and rearranging your priorities so that your final goal can be achieved. Sometimes, familiarity and comfort need to be challenged. There are times when you must take a few extra chances and create your own realities. Be strong enough to at least try to make your life better. Be confident enough that you won’t settle for a compromise just to get by. Appreciate yourself by allowing yourself the opportunities to grow, develop, and find your true sense of purpose in this life.
Don’t stand in someone else’s shadow when it’s your sunlight that should lead the way.
The Power of Unity-When leaders come together, unity flows down
Psalms 133:1–3
*How wonderful it is, how pleasant, when brothers live together in harmony! *For harmony is as precious as the fragrant anointing oil that was poured over Aaron’s head, that ran down his beard and onto the border of his robe. *Harmony is as refreshing as the dew from Mount Hermon that falls on the mountains of Zion. And the LORD has pronounced his blessing

POSITIVE THOUGHTS
Forgiveness is the giving, and receiving, of life.
Love is a choice you make from moment to moment.
You may not get to choose how you’re going to meet your end, but you do get to chose how you’re going to live now.
If you can’t make it better, you can laugh at it.
A smile costs nothing, yet it can be priceless to the person you give it to.
Word of the Day
POSITIVE THOUGHTS
Faith takes hold of God’s sure word and moves His mighty arm. Before Him melt the needs and wants that could our hearts alarm. Money may fail and days look black but bold faith will answer back: With God nothing is impossible.
But if someone wants to brag, then let him brag about these things: Let him brag that he learned to know me. Let him brag that he understands that I am the Lord that I am kind and fair and that I do good things on earth. I love those things.” This message is from the Lord. Jeremiah 9:23-24
