My grandfather took me to the fish pond on the farm when I was about seven, and he told me to throw a stone into the water. He told me to watch the circles created by the stone. Then he asked me to think of myself as that stone person.
You may create lots of splashes in your life but the waves that come from those splashes will disturb the peace of all your fellow creatures, he said.
Remember that you are responsible for what you put in your circle and that circle will also touch many other circles. You will need to live in a way that allows the good that comes from your circle to send the peace of that goodness to others. The splash that comes from anger or jealousy will send those feelings to other circles. You are responsible for both.
That was the first time I realized each person creates the inner peace or discord that flows out into the world. We cannot create world peace if we are riddled with inner conflict, hatred, doubt, or anger. We radiate the feelings and thoughts that we hold inside, whether we speak them or not. Whatever is splashing around inside of us is spilling out into the world, creating beauty or discord with all other circles of life.
Remember the eternal wisdom
WHATEVER YOU FOCUS ON EXPANDS...
Take it all in. Let it all out.
Always remember. Never forget.
Grow older. Stay young at heart.
Remember me. Stay true to yourself.
Be an individual. Stick with your friends.
Have no regrets. Learn from your mistakes.
Laugh. Cry.
Strive for the best. Share the spotlight.
Be confident. Admit when you're wrong.
Give yourself more credit. Take the blame.
Think for yourself. Think twice.
Love more. Hate less.
Miss it lots. Move on.
Be prepared. Be spontaneous.
Improve yourself. Never change.
I'll always be here. Things won't always be the same.
Don't miss it by blinking. Close your eyes and breathe it in.
Be strong. Ask for help.
Reach the top. Don't fall.
Believe in miracles. Don't depend on them.
Live for today. Look toward tomorrow.
A young man had been to Wednesday night Bible Study. The Pastor had shared about listening to God and obeying the Lord's voice. The young man couldn't help but wonder, "Does God still speak to people?"
After service he went out with some friends for coffee and pie and they discussed the message. Several different ones talked about how God had led them in different ways. It was about ten o'clock when the young man started driving home. Sitting in his car, he just began to pray, "God.. If you will listen. I will do my best to obey."
As he drove down the main street of his town, he had the strangest thought to stop and buy a gallon of milk.He shook his head an said out loud, "God is that you?" He didn't get a reply an started on toward home. But again the thought to stop and buy a gallon of milk. The young man though about Samuel and how he didn't recognize the voice of God, and how little Samuel ran to Eli. "Okay, God, in case that is you, I will buy the milk." It didn't seem like too hard a test of obedience. He could always use the milk. He stopped and purchased the gallon of milk and started of toward home. As he passed Seventh Street, he again felt the urge, "Turn down that street." This is crazy he thought and drove on past the intersection. Again, he felt that he should turn down Seventh Street At the next intersection, he turned back and headed down Seventh. Half jokingly, he said out loud, "Okay, God, I will". He drove several blocks, when suddenly, he felt like he should stop. He pulled over to the curb and looked around. He was in a semicommercial area of town. It wasn't the best but it wasn't the worst of neighborhoods either.
The businesses were closed and most of the houses looked dark like the people of the houses were already in bed. Again, he sensed something, "Go and give the milk to the people in the house across the street." The young man looked at the house. It was dark and it looked like the people were already asleep. He started to open the door and then sat back in the car seat. "Lord, this is insane. Those people are asleep and if I wake them up, they are going to be mad and I will look stupid." Again, he felt like he should go and give the milk.
Finally, he opened the door, "Okay God, if this is you, I will go to the door and I will give them the milk. If you want me to look like a crazy person, okay. I want to be obedient. I guess that will count for something but if they don't answer right away, I am out of here." He walked across the street and rant the bell. He could hear so noise inside. A man's voice yelled out, "Who is it? What do you want?"
Then the door opened before the young man could get away. The man was standing there in his jeans and T-shirt. He looked like he just got out of bed. He had a strange look on his face and he didn't seem too happy to have some stranger standing on his doorstep.
"What is it?" The young man thrust out the gallon of milk, "Here, I brought this to you." The man took the milk and rushed down a hallway speaking loudly in Spanish. Then from done the hall came a woman carrying the milk toward the kitchen. The man was following her holding a baby. The baby was crying.
The man had tears streaming down his face. The man began speaking and half crying, "We were just praying. We had some big bills this month and we ran out of money. We didn't have any milk for our baby. I was just praying and asking God to show me. How to get some milk." His wife in the kitchen yelled out, "I ask him to send an Angel with some. Are you an Angel?"
The young man reached into his wallet and pulled out all the money he had on him and put it in the man's hand. He turned and walked back toward his car and the tears were streaming down his face. He knew that God still answers prayers.

Let me tell you about a little girl who was born into a very poor family in a shack in the Backwoods of Tennessee. She was the 20th of 22 children, prematurely born and frail. Her survival was doubtful. When she was four years old she had double pneumonia and scarlet fever - a deadly combination that left her with a paralyzed and useless left leg. She had to wear an iron leg brace. Yet she was fortunate in having a mother who encouraged her. | ||
A newly arrived soul in Heaven was met by St. Peter. The saint toured the soul around Heaven. Both of them walked side by side inside a large workroom filled with angels. | ||
Louise Redden, a poorly dressed lady with a look of defeat on her face, walked into a small town grocery store. She approached the owner of the store in a most humble manner and asked if he would let her charge a few groceries. | ||
A young and successful executive was traveling down a neighborhood street, going a bit to fast in his new Jaguar. He was watching for kids running out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something. | ||
An old story is told of a king in Africa who had a close friend with whom he grew up. The friend had a habit of looking at every situation that ever occurred in his life (positive or negative) and remarking, "This is good!" | ||
I find what I look for in people. If I look for God, I find God. If I look for bad qualities, I find them. I, in a sense, select what I expect, and I receive it.
A life without challenges would be like going to school without lessons to learn. Challenges come not to depress or get me down, but to master and to grow and to unfold thereby.
In the Father's wise and loving plan for me, no burden can fall upon me, no emergency can arise, no grief can overtake me, before I am given the grace and strength to meet them.
A rich, full life is not determined by outer circumstances and relationships. These can be contributory to it, but cannot be the source. I am happy or unhappy because of what I think and feel.
I can never lose anything that belongs to me, nor can I posses what is not really mine.
To never run from a problem either it will chase me or I will run into another just like it, although it may have a different face or name.
To have no concern for tomorrow. Today is the yesterday over which I had concern.
To never bang on a closed door Wait for it to open and then go through it.
A person who has come into my life has come either to teach me something, or to learn something from me.
Remember: | ||
One woman complained to a friend that she couldn't remember anything from one day to the next. |

"Come in," God said to me. "So, you would like to interview Me?"
What god wants us to learn.........
*
"To learn that they cannot make anyone love them. What they can do is to let themselves be loved.
*
To learn that what is most valuable is not what they have in their lives, but who they have in their lives.
*
To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others. All will be judged individually on their own merits, not as a group on a comparison basis!
*
To learn that a rich person is not the one who has the most, but is one who needs the least.
*
To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in persons we love, and that it takes many years to heal them.
*
To learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness.
*
To learn that there are persons that love them dearly, but simply do not know how to express or show their feelings.
*
To learn that money can buy everything but happiness.
*
To learn that two people can look at the same thing and see it totally differently.
*
To learn that a true friend is someone who knows everything about them…and likes them anyway.
*
To learn that it is not always enough that they be forgiven by others, but that they have to forgive themselves."
I am thankful to god......................for allowing me to share his teachings with all of you my friends........................
