random quotes


Here are some random Bible verses and quotes that inspire me.  Thought you might need some truth infused in to your day as I do:

Psalm 139:23-24  NASB
Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me and know my anxious thoughts; And see if there be any hurtful way in me, And lead me in the everlasting way.

You need to have faith in who you were created to be. Be brave and take risks. You don't have to have it all figured out to move forward. – Michael Robinson

Colossians 3:2  NASB
Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth.

I hope that none of you think that you have more grace than you need, because you 
have not. You may, possibly, have as much grace as will last you through to-day; but 
you will need as much as that to-morrow morning, if not more.  – Charles H. Spurgeon

1 Peter 5:6  NASB
Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time,

Whoever shows up most in a person’s life wins the battle of influence.  – Matthew Barnett

Galatians 5:13  NASB
For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.


People I am praying for:

Pray for our family and others dealing with sickness, especially a stomach bug, and our girls who are away at college have been sick.  Continue to pray for Heather Morrill’s family as her grandfather passed away and for Jay Gilbert’s family as his mom passed away.  Pray for Jamie Foley and his dad.

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you ...

wash feet, sharing hope

  John 13:4-5,14 NLT  So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, 5 and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel he had around him… 14 And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet. Jesus set the example we follow.  He served.  He valued and gave value to others.  That is why we choose to serve. For 18 years our church has shared an outreach called back2school, and for 16 of those years we have chosen to give students brand new shoes and socks as well as washing their feet.  It is one of the most important parts of this event. Washing feet is a humbling experience where both the give and the receiver learn how to share some moments that might change their lives.  Jesus said we should do this.  See the verse above.  Follow His example, do what He did, and give far more than you will ever know....
