 SATURDAY INSPIRATION

"You will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move."  
Matthew 17:20 

A Church goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and complained
that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. "I've gone for 30
years now," he wrote, "and in that time I have heard something like 3,000
sermons. But for the life of me, I can't remember a single one of them.
So, I think I'm wasting my time and the pastors are wasting theirs by
giving sermons at all."

This started a real controversy in the "Letters to the Editor" column,
much to the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks until someone
wrote this clincher: I've been married for 30 years now. In that time my
wife has cooked some 32,000 meals. But for the life of me, I cannot recall
the entire menu for a single one of those meals. But I do know this: They
all nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work. If my
wife had not given me these meals, I would be physically dead today.

Likewise, if I had not gone to church for nourishment, I would be
spiritually dead today!"

When you are DOWN to nothing.... God is UP to something! Faith sees the
invisible, believes the incredible and receives the impossible!

Thank God for our physical AND our spiritual nourishment!

"When negativity is knocking at your door, simply say, "God, could you get
that for me?

We set our clocks to arise at 4:00 a.m. or 5:00 a.m. to be at the job by
8:00 a.m., yet when Sunday comes, many have trouble getting to church by
11:00 a.m. to praise the one who gave them the jobs!

We call God our Father, but many find it hard to introduce God to their
family and friends.

Many demand justice for others, but they expect mercy from God.

Many people, as they look at their lives, how small their errors seem, but
how big "others" errors are.

Many have difficulty learning the gospel well enough to tell others, but
how simple it is to understand and explain the latest gossip about someone
else.

Some people can't think of anything to say when they pray, but don't have
any difficulty thinking of things to talk about to a friend.

We are so quick to take directions from a total stranger when we are lost,
but are hesitant to take God's direction for our lives.

People want God to answer their prayers, but sometimes refuse to listen to
God’s counsel.

Many blame God for the wrong and suffering in the world, but never take
the time to thank God for what is good and pleasant. The huge percentage
of good always overwhelms the small percentage that we call bad, if we
have the eyes to see it.

When something goes wrong, many will cry, "Lord, why me?" but when
something goes right, they think, "Hey, it must be me!"

So many church goers sing "Standing on the Promises" but all they do is
sit on the premises.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:
Dear God, today I stand on a firm foundation for the rest of my life of complete, non-doubting 
faith in Your power. No longer do I limit my potential or my future. I walk with You on a firm 
foundation, on a straight path to success and victory. Even when my human eyes cannot see the way, 
You can see the way. Thank You, God.

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE: "The safest principle through life, instead of reforming others,
