Thoughts: As I've Matured...
I've learned that one good turn gets most of the blankets.
I've learned that it takes years to build up trust, and it only takes suspicion, not proof, to destroy it.
I've learned that you shouldn't compare yourself to others -
they are more screwed up than you think.
I will share ideas presented in the book over the course of time, as well as ideas from the History sharing.
Personalize Your Prayers
Get the Prayer Habit, Triggers to Praying
Spiritual Insurance
Take Forty, Practice Patience
Get off Center and on Target
I See You
Pray When? Who’s Got Time?
Bloom Where Your are Planted
Thankfulness
Sacrifice Why Bother
Here is a beautiful analogy about going to heaven and what our attitude should be.
A sick man turned to his doctor, as he was preparing to leave the examination room and said, "Doctor, I am afraid to die. Tell me what lies on the other side."
Very quietly, the doctor said, "I don't know."
"You don't know? You, a Christian man, do not know what is on the other side?"
The doctor was holding the handle of the door; on the other side came a sound of scratching and whining, and as he opened the door, a dog sprang into the room and leaped on him with an eager show of gladness. Turning to the patient, the doctor said, "Did you notice my dog? He's never been in this room before. He didn't know what was inside. He knew nothing except that his master was here, and when the door opened, he sprang in without fear. I know little of what is on the other side of death, but I do know one thing... I know my Master is there and that is enough."
Until next time, God bless, Ed
