How do you stay so slim and eat all those sweets?

I like your outfit. You always wear such cute outfits (and you look cute in them). Maybe you can help Mama Bear shop before she takes her trip.

Why do you call Me "Lord, Lord," and not do the things which I say? —Luke 6:46

Fill up each hour with what will last;
Buy up the moments as they go;
The life above, when this is past,
Is the ripe fruit of life below

To show that you value eternity, make good use of your time.

Value Test

Read: Luke 6:46-49

Why do you call Me "Lord, Lord," and not do the things which I say? —Luke 6:46

Bible In One Year: 2 Chronicles 28-29; John 17

Robert Ginnett, a researcher at the Center for Creative Leadership in Colorado Springs, has found that the values we claim to have are not as closely linked to our actual behavior as we might like to believe.

One business executive, who said his 5-year-old daughter was the most important part of his life, realized that he usually went to work before she got up in the morning and often returned home after she was in bed at night. So to spend time with her, he took her to work with him one Saturday. After looking around his office, she asked, "Daddy, is this where you live?" He may have acknowledged that his daughter was important, but his behavior revealed what he truly valued.

In our relationship with Christ, He asks for our obedience, not a warm feeling or a statement of belief. He asked those following Him, "Why do you call Me 'Lord, Lord,' and not do the things which I say?" (Luke 6:46). Jesus illustrated His point with the parable of the wise and foolish builders (vv.47-49). The rock-solid foundation of the wise builder's house illustrates the result of our obedience to God. This honors Christ and enables us to withstand the storms of life.

What we do, more than anything we say, reveals what we truly value the most. —David McCasland

Buy up the moments as they go;
The life above, when this is past,
Is the ripe fruit of life below. —Bonar

Thank you for posting this.

Yes ... it is important that we take this election seriously and work to get GWB reelected. The world cannot afford a President Kerry!

Thanks, again.

Have a marvelous Monday.

Hi Victoria.

Sorry that I missed you last night.

I slept the afternoon away. I'm feeling a little more human today. At least I have quit sneezing.

Hope to see you this evening.
