MEDITATION ON SUCCESS

"Do not let this Book of Law (The Torah) depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful." (Joshua 1:8)

"Great success, like disgrace, can bring great trouble. Success which advances ego can make you lose your way." (Tao 13.)

A lawyer once commented to me, "If you preachers ever convince people to live by the Ten Commandments, I will be out of business". Now there is a thought: lawyers out of business!

Doing God's will is the only real guarantee of success. Beginning with the Ten Commandments, we must first learn the laws by which God guarantees success. To learn these laws is not just a mental exercise but the beginning of a way of living, a way which brings the reward of joyful success. Successful people are often asked, "What is the secret of your success?" One person responded..."To live life fully by doing rather than talking".

Maybe that is what is meant by the words in Joshua quoted above. Obedience to God brings happiness, which is real success!

Good night.

It’s holding around 32 degrees, which is not enough to melt the ice but at least no fridgid.

Which is a good thing because poor Penny has had diarrhea for a couple of days (something she ate) and been getting me up at 4:00AM to take her outside in my PJs, slippers and robe.

I am so thrilled at her pristine, excellent, and proper sanitary habits, that I can’t possibly be annoyed with her.

Better out there than on the rug!

Good Afternoon, Kathy!

***HUGS***



A Blessed Lord's Day to you and yours! Thank you very much for today's Sunday Chapel thread.

This is the day the Lord hath made; let us rejoice and be glad!

"TAKE UP THY CROSS
AND FOLLOW ME"



"I Vow To Thee My Country"
Choir Of King's College, Cambridge

"I VOW TO THEE, my country, all earthly things above,
Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love;
The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test,
That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best;
The love that never falters, the love that pays the price,
The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.

And there's another country, I've heard of long ago,
Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know;
We may not count her armies, we may not see her King;
Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering;
And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase,
And her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace."

GOD BLESS AND PROTECT OUR TROOPS AND OUR BELOVED NATION!



Amazing Grace
(Click)
By John Newton

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!

Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me,
His Word my hope secures;
He will my Shield and Portion be,
As long as life endures.

Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, Who called me here below,
Will be forever mine.

When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’d first begun.

Well howdy do, Conor! *HUGZ*

Long time, no see! I hope all’s well with you and Mrs. MacNessa these days. Are y’all as ready for Spring as the rest of us? :-)

[ConorMacNessa]

Good afternoon, Radu!

*HUGS*

All is well here, thanks. We are indeed ready for Spring!

"Dia shábháil ar fad anseo!"

[radu]

Awesome! Glad to hear all’s well.

Any early bloomers giving you splashes of color yet? We have daffodils, the camellia bush is in full bloom, pear trees and now a peach tree.

And it’s supposed to snow tonight. :-(

[ConorMacNessa]

The only blooms so far are a couple of crocus and dwarf iris. Daffodils are a few days away.

Good to see you, Conor! (((hugs)))

[Kathy in Alaska]

What a good girl she is....knowing when to get you up, and waiting til she is outside.

Hope you are feeling better, Penny.
