WORRY

Life is very simple. The first thing to remember
about life is - don't worry about it. Really,
there are only two things to worry about; either
you're successful or you're not successful.
If you are successful, there's nothing to worry
about. If you're not successful, there are only
two things to worry about. You health is good
or you are sick. If your health is good, there is
nothing to worry about. If your health is bad,
there are only two things to worry about:
either you are going to live or you're not going to
live. If you live there' s nothing to worry about,
and if you don't live, you have only two things
to worry about. Wither you're going to heaven
or you're not going to heaven. If you are going
to heaven, there's nothing to worry about, and
if you go to to the other place, you'll be so busy
shaking hands with all you shaking hands with
all your friends, you won't have times with all
your old friends. You won't have time to worry.

TRUST

Sure, it takes a lot of courage
To put things in God's hands -
To give ourselves completely,
Our lives, our hopes, our plans:
To follow where He leads us
And make His Will our own -
But all it takes is foolishness
To go the way alone.

When you have nothing left but God,
Then you become aware
that God is enough.

GIVING

God gives us joy that we may give;
He gives us joy that we may share;
Sometimes He gives us loads to lift
That we might learn to bear.
For life is gladder when we give,
And love is sweeter when we share,
And heavy loads rest lightly too
When we have learned to bear.

FUTURE

Doubt sees the obstacles -
Faith sees the way!
Doubt sees the darkest night -
Faith sees the day!
Doubt dreads to take a step -
Faith soars on high!
Doubt questions, "Who believes?"
Faith answers, "I."
FRIENDS

I think that God will never send,
A gift so precious as a friend.
A friend who always understands.
And fills each need as it demands.
Whose loyalty will stand the test.
When skies are bright or overcast.
Who sees the faults that merit blame.
But keeps on loving just the same.
Who does far more than creeds could do.
To make us good to make us true.
Earth's gifts a sweet contentment lend.
But only God can give a friend!
(R Carter)
FORGIVE

Here is a program for achieving
a truly forgiving heart:

SUNDAY: Forgive yourself.
MONDAY: Forgive your family
TUESDAY: Forgive your friends & associates
WEDNESDAY: Forgive across economic lines within
your own nation.
THURSDAY: Forgive across cultural lines within
your own nation.
FRIDAY: Forgive across political lines within
your own nation.
SATURDAY: Forgive other nations.

Only the brave know how to forgive.
A coward never forgives. It is not in his nature.
CONSISTENT

The heart that loves the little things
Is full of deep content;
The life that serves in little things
Is often nobly spent.
So do not be despising
The day of little things,
For bees, as well as angels,
Can boast a pair of wings.
