BIBLE VERSE: Hebrews 4:16

     "Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace in time of need." - Hebrews 4:16

MAXIM: Brevity

   Brevity is the soul of wit. 

MAXIM: Dead Fish VS Live Fish

     Any old dead fish can float downstream. 
     It takes a determined live fish to fight their way upstream. 

MAXIM: God Is My Helper

     God helps those, who help themselves. 

THOUGHT: God's Blessings

     I started a new health program today (AKA a diet), so all day I have been eating moderately. (My stomach has been growling and groaning all day it seems.) However, I am proud of my efforts and very grateful for the Lord's help. However, after my day of semi-success, wouldn't you know that when I go to a little get-to-gether at my church tonight they are serving ice cream and chocolate chip cookies. *Drool* I believe the Lord heard me inwardly desiring some sweetness and chocolate, and provided me a spiritual blessing, friendly fellowship, and a happily received gift for my sweet tooth.  God is good to me. So very good. Praise the Lord!
