Today's Thought

I could not, at my age, be content to take my place by the wayside and simply look on.

Life was meant to be lived and to contribute beneficially to the society - to those who needs our assistance.

One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life and on those who are in despair.

I have journeyed this life for many decades, in search of my dream and in search of a destination that I had envisioned. The course of the journey was complex, tough, often painful and extremely tiring. I had reach the point, a point of contention, where I am now able to contribute my time and energy, and efforts, for others, the poor and destitute - they are those who deserve it. I had to serve my time back, for humanity, and hopefully, be able to help the needy and poor.

While exercise is good for the body, indeed charitable deeds are refreshing for the soul.

But nevertheless, its important to keep up with buddies over a glass or two, cos they will helps to keep your spirits high all year through.

Sir, And May God Blessing Be With You On Your Endeavour.

And From God Words of Wisdom...

In the dark? Follow the Son.

If you can't sleep, don't count sheep. Talk to the Shepherd.

If you don't like the way you were born, try being born again.

If you're headed in the wrong direction, God allows U-turns.

Feed your faith and doubt will starve to death.

Don't go digging where God has buried your sins.

When satan is knocking at your door, simply say, "Lord, could you please get that for me."

A clean conscience makes a soft pillow.

Don't wait for the hearse to take you to church.

A lot of kneeling will keep you in good standing.

Give God what's right, not what's left.

Exercise daily. Walk with the Lord.

He who kneels before God can stand before anyone!

The will of God will never take you to where the Grace of God will not protect you.

The task ahead of us is never as great as the power behind us.

A coincidence is when God performs a miracle and decides to remain anonymous.

To the world you might be one person, but to one person you might be the world.

You don't have to attend every argument you're invited to.

A friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.

No man ever got lost on a straight road.

A careless word may kindle strife
A cruel word may wreck a life
A timely word may level stress
A loving word may heal and bless

Your worst days are never so bad that you are beyond the reach of God's grace. And your best days are never so good that you are beyond the need of God's grace.

God gives and forgives. Man gets and forgets.

Following the path of least resistance is what makes rivers and men crooked.

A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle.

When you're having bad dreams, turn your pillow over. The good dreams are on the other side.

Worry is like a rocking chair -- it gives you something to do but doesn't get you anywhere.

Thank God for what you have -- Trust God for what you need.

You can't keep trouble from coming, but you needn't give it a chair to sit in.

Don't become discouraged. It may be the last key in the bunch that will open the door.

God still speaks to those who take the time to listen.

God looks not to the quantity of the gift but to the quality of the giver.

Conscience is that small, still voice that makes you feel smaller.

When we have done what we can, God will do what we can't.

Charity begins anywhere and should have no end.

Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.

Doc,
This is just a passing thought of the day??? Repeat it daily so it becomes a will... You have a good heart.. you will not fail.

very deep mave... sad to say though, many are heading towards the other direction. we want to be conformed to our comfort zone, refuse to let the bubble of our routine life be disturbed...
