I was told ... "Find a real job." "Rap won't last"...... Try telling that to Russell Simmons!! (Here's my motto!) Those who say it can't be done should get the hell out of the way of those that's doing it.

Saturday's Devotional--Children Learn What They Live

 anointedteacher8@yahoo.com
 
Good Morning,
 
 "Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will
not turn from it." (Proverbs 22:6)
 
 Change is rarely easy. In fact it can be very difficult to change
the patterns learned in our developmental years. Solomon noted the
importance of early training some 3,000 years ago. Dorothy Law Nolte
explained it rather precisely in the following words:
 
    If a child lives with criticism,
       he learns to condemn.
    If a child lives with hostility,
       he learns to fight.
    If a child lives with ridicule,
       he learns to be shy.
    If a child lives with shame,
       he learns to feel guilty.
    If a child lives with tolerance,
       he learns to be patient.
    If a child lives with encouragement,
       he learns confidence.
    If a child lives with praise,
       he learns to appreciate.
    If a child lives with fairness,
       he learns justice.
    If a child lives with security,
       he learns to have faith.
    If a child lives with approval,
       he learns to like himself.
    If a child lives with acceptance and friendship,
       he learns to find love in the world.
 Adapted from "Children Learn What They Live" by Dorothy Law Nolte
 
 It hardly needs saying that we need to be very loving in the way we
bring up our children. But what if we, as adults, didn't receive
loving, wholesome training as a child ourselves? Can we change? Yes,
if we truly want to and are willing to accept responsibility for
doing what we need to do to change.
 
 Today’s prayer: "Dear God, knowing that my parents did the best they
knew how, help me never to blame them for any problems I have, and
please give me the desire to keep growing so I become a warm,
loving, accepting adult/parent. And please lead me to the help I
need to overcome the effects of any deficiencies in my childhood
training. Thank you for hearing and answering my prayer. Gratefully
in Jesus' name, Amen."

I knocked at heaven's door this morning. God asked

And I said, Father, please protect and bless the

God smiled and answered...Request granted.

Fwd: Pastors business card

Pastor's Business Card

A new pastor was visiting in the homes of his parishioners.  At one house
it seemed obvious that someone was at home, but no answer came to his
repeated knocks at the door.

Therefore, he took out a business card and wrote 'Revelation 3:20' on the
back of it and stuck it in the door.

When the offering was processed the following Sunday, he found that his
card had been returned.  Added to it was this cryptic message, 'Genesis
3:10.'

Reaching for his Bible to check out the citation, he broke up in gales of
laughter.  Revelation 3:20 begins 'Behold, I stand at the door and knock.'
Genesis 3:10 reads, 'I heard your voice in the garden and I was afraid for
I was naked.'

Remember when the funniest jokes were the clean ones? They still are!

'A cheerful heart is good medicine' (Prov. 17:22)



                              Now, pass it on
