Boys In Hospital

The two young boys were discussing their ailments together in the children’s ward.

“Are you medical or surgical?” asked the first, who had been in the ward for a week.

“I don’t know what you mean,” replied the second.

“It’s simple,” replied the first.

“Were you sick when you came in here? Or did they make you sick when you got here?”

Redeem the Time

TODAY’S SCRIPTURE

“So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise. Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days”
(Ephesians 5:15–16, NLT)

TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria

Time is the most valuable commodity that we have in life. It’s more valuable than money. You can make more money, but you can’t make more time. When you woke up this morning, God gave you a present called “today.” And with that gift comes a responsibility. The Scripture tells us to redeem the time, to make the most of every opportunity. That simply means don’t let it go to waste. Don’t live this day unfocused, unhappy, negative or defeated. Make the most of every day. God has entrusted you with His life. He has breathed His very breath into you. He has put gifts and talents on the inside of you. You have seeds of greatness deposited in you. You’re a person of destiny, and you have an assignment and a purpose to fulfill!

I encourage you today to evaluate how you are spending your time. Refocus your life. Let go of any distractions. Shake off any self-pity, any discouragement, any disappointments of the past and run your race with purpose. Be careful how you live and redeem the time so that you can fulfill the destiny He has prepared for you.

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Father in heaven, thank You for the gift of today. I dedicate this day to You. I dedicate my mind, will and emotions to You. Use me this day for Your purposes and keep me on the path You have for me. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

— Joel & Victoria Osteen

A police dog responds to an ad for work with the FBI.
“Well,” says the personnel director, “you’ll have to meet some strict requirements. First, you must type at least 60 words per minute.

” Sitting down at the typewriter, the dog types out 80 words per minute.

“Also,” says the director, “you must pass a physical and complete the obstacle course.”
This perfect canine specimen finishes the course in record time.

“There’s one last requirement,” the director continues; “you must be bilingual.” With confidence, the dog looks up at him and says, “Meow!”

A cat died and went to heaven. When he arrived at the gate, an angel asked:
“Welcome to heaven. What can I get for you to make you happy today?”

The cat replied:
“Oh, I sure would love a nice, soft pillow!” And so, the angel gave him the pillow and called for the next person in line.

The next day, some mice were in line at the gate. The angel asked them the same question.

The mice replied:
“Ooh! Can we have some skateboards?!” And the angel gave them the skate boards.

A few hours later, God was strolling through his kingdom and came across the cat on his pillow.

“Good cat! How do you like heaven and your pillow?”

The cat smiled and replied:

“This place is great! The streets are gold, this is the softest pillow in the world! Thank you, God!”

God smiled and said:

“So you’re really liking it?”

The cat said:

“Oh, I love it! And by the way, thanks for the meals on wheels you sent by earlier!
