Happy Warm Fuzzy Wednesday To Amy's Place

I cannot sit and chat with you,
the way I'd like to do.
So brew yourself a cup of tea,
I'll think of you, you think of me.

Remembering The Reason
July 24, 2012

Joe Morris flavors his ice cream with ingredients ranging from chocolate and strawberries to green tea and dried chipotle peppers. He’s one of three ice-cream makers for a successful Texas company known for its quality, creativity, and innovation. But Joe hasn’t forgotten why he does it.

He told reporter Ricardo Gándara that one of the longtime employees always reminded them, “Why are we making ice cream? It’s a happy food. We’re here to make people happy.” And that’s why Joe Morris makes ice cream.

We know that it’s extremely important to remember the reason for what we do as followers of Jesus. If we forget, we become like the disciples when a dispute over who was most important created anger and division among them. Jesus reminded them that “even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many” (Mark 10:35-45).

If our goal is to share the good news of God’s love with others, we won’t become impersonal or harsh if someone resists or ridicules our appeal. As we follow our Lord’s path of loving service and sacrifice, we are reminded that He came to serve and save.

That’s the reason for everything we do.

He whose right was heaven’s glory
Chose to serve on earth below,
Leaving us a clear example
Of the love He’d have us show. —D. De Haan

Keep your eyes on the Lord, and you won’t lose sight of life’s purpose.

Read: Mark 10:35-45

For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many. —Mark 10:45

Song of Solomon 1-4

Have a warm fuzzy Wednesday.

Thanks for today's ODB message. Serving others is a life I try to lead.

Good afternoon, sorry to have been away so long, it has been one of those times when we spend more time at the doc’s office than at home.

Did get a tad bit of good news, those 3 pea sized lumps are nothing but dead fat tissue ‘narcrosis’ it is called, 2 have gone away, have a re-check for the remaining 1 in 2 months.
