If you are going in circles,ask Jesus for his compass: GPS: God's Piloting Spirit God reserves the right to use people with whom you disagree Cruelty springs from bad character A poor man with a sunny disposition will get more out of life than a millionaire grumbler A man's concept of death will determine his philosophy of life The way of the cross leads home God may be calling you to pour oil on a broken heart-can you hear His call? Wrong is always wrong, even if everyone is doing it, Right is always right even if no one is doing it. Always live as if Christ were coming back today, because one day He will.

It is not easy... To apologize To begin over To be unselfish To take advice To admit error To face sneer To be charitable To keep trying To be considerate To avoid mistakes To endure success To profit by mistakes To forgive and forget To think and then act to keep out of a rut To make the best of little To subdue an unruly temper To maintain a high standard To shoulder a deserved blame to recognize the silver lining
But it always pays.

Our aim should be to serve- not to be successful.
He who cares will share
The truly busy person is so busy that he has no time to think how busy he really is.
Praise, like sunlight, helps all things to grow.
God gives blessing to us, so we can give glory to Him.
Life takes on new interest when we invest in the lives of others.
Be sure to concentrate on your blessings- not your distresses.
Christ as Savior Brings peace with God.
Christ as Lord Brings the peace of God.

No one who ever followed Christ went astray
Jesus often spoke of Christianity as a banquet but never a picnic
Some learn from experience- other never recover from it.
Bad men excuse their faults- good men abandon them. Nothing is politically right that is morally wrong
An apology is a good way to have the last word.
It is easier to forgive an enemy that to forgive a friend.

Beware of the half truth- you may have gotten the wrong half.
When in doubt, tell the truth.
No one is always wrong- even the stopped clock is right twice each day.
Before you can dry another's tears, you must learn to weep.
Never be diverted from the truth by what you would like to believe.
Truth needs no defense- it only needs witnesses.
Don't be yourself- be what you ought to be.
A smile is a light in the window of your face that shows that your heart is at home.
A Christian cares when the world despairs.

God's highest gift should awaken man's deepest gratitude. thanksgiving is a duty before it is a feeling. If we pause to think, we'll have cause to thank. If you can't be thankful for what you receive, be thankful for what you escape. If a man needs praise-give it to him. He cannot read his tombstone. A great mind is always a generous. If you could turn back the clock, where would you stop? Time is life-don't kill it. Live as if Christ died yesterday, arose today, and is coming tomorrow.

The measure of a man is the size of the things it takes to get his goat. Satan covets a tired man and uses him. A love of heaven makes a man heavenly. If a man wants his dreams to come true he must wake up. The world steps aside for the man who knows where he is going. God's promises are always great then our needs. You can never find a lost opportunity. A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor. Master that sin in your heart,or it will master you. Godly talk does not always imply godly walk. Weak men wait for opportunities- strong men make them.
