Temptations Last a Moment, Consequences Can Last a Lifetime

February 9, 2006

-         Temptations last a moment, consequences can last a lifetime.

-         Thinking people look ahead.

-         Be slow to speak and quick to listen.

-         If you love God and love people your life will count.

-         Greatness is serving others.

-         If you don’t like what you have, quit what you’re doing.

-         You get what you got when you do what you did.

-         We will all fall short, that is why God sent Christ.

-         The One upstairs grows the flowers and vegetables. I just help out where I can.

-         God prepares us throughout our lives for what He wants us to do.

-         We struggle with God’s timing because it does not fit ours.

-         God is slow to anger with us. He teaches and shapes us with events in our lives.

-         Build others up with words, don’t discourage them.

-         Show others genuine kindness.

-         Be slow to get mad.

-         If you do not have peace with God, you will not have peace in any other part of your life.

-         True peace only comes with Jesus.

-         When our leaders push the people, the people will push back.

-         Don’t be surprised if people mock you for your belief in Jesus Christ.

-         Critics are threatened by the possibilities of success.

-         What can we accomplish if motivated to please God?

-         God gave us a passion for something because He wants us to take care of it and do it.

-         Criticism is some people’s only gift.

-         The goal of Satan is not wickedness, but indifference.

-         Your life is the sum total of your decisions. If you don’t like what you have, stop making those decisions.

-         Sow the right things, and you will reap the good things.

-         Any sex outside marriage is a sexual sin.

-         All five major religions teach that homosexuality is wrong.

-         Hatred of others should never be tolerated.

-         If homosexuality were genetic it would eventually wipe itself out.

-         The compassion of Christ is caring enough to enter into a person’s pain.

-         Jesus commanded us to reach the world for Him.

-         “Forgiven” people go to Heaven, not “good” people.

-         You are not a failure until you give up on yourself.

-         Thoroughbreds run their races without looking at the other horses.

-         Live up to your expectations, your children will.

-         Consistent character is the key to a child’s stability.

-         Live life as if Christ were coming back today.
