Food for Thought

God has promised to supply all our needs,     

but He made no such promise concerning our greed.

      ** * * * **

If we want God’s power

we have to follow His plan.

    ** * * * **

Lord, when I look at a task,

help me to see Your strength,

and not my weakness.

** * * * **

The true nature of a person, like the color of autumn leaves,

is revealed by adverse circumstances.

** * * * **

Prayer provides the power that permits progress.

** * * * **

Plans positively progress provided prayer precedes.

** * * * **

Lord, help me not run toward my day

until I have run to You,

** * * * **

Peacefulness and Contentment are well acquainted

for they often lodge together in the truly thankful heart.

** * * * **

A surrendered will is the first step to a transformed lifestyle.

** * * * **

Thank You, Lord, that You have promised to make 

something good out of everything, including my mistakes.

** * * * **

There is no room for fear in the heart

that is filled with faith.

** * * * **

God does not give marching orders 

until the moment to march comes.

** * * * **

God never allows a hole to be dug 

in His children’s lives,

but that He will plant a tree. 

Fruit trees are His specialty.

** * * * **

We cannot be what we are not,

but with God’s help,

we can be all that we are.

** * * * **

A small thing done for a great God

is never a small thing.

** * * * **

Here is my day, Lord, as I have it planned.

Now I am placing it all in Your hand;

if You chose to change it,

 add more or delay,

help me be yielded to do it Your way.

** * * * **

           To know God is to love Him.

          To love Him is to obey Him.

           To obey Him is to serve Him.

              To serve Him is to know Him...

** * * * **

When the head outpaces the heart,

fear overpowers faith.
