THIS WEEKS PRAYER

This week ask God to give you a passion for Him, first and foremost. Then ask Him to reveal what He has placed within your heart that burns with passion and propels you toward the your destiny. Pray for the upcoming elections. Ask God to reveal anything that is displeasing to him within our government, and to spur us on to pray, support and vote for those of His choosing. Continue to pray for our military and their families, the situation in the Middle East, the protection of Israel and wisdom for President Bush and those in authority with him. Matt. 9:29

WHAT ARE YOU FILLED WITH?

I recall reading that a man from Virginia Beach filed a law suit against his hospital. He opted to have surgery in order to lose weight. So he had his stomach stapled -- a procedure that reduced the size of his stomach so he couldn't eat as much. A couple of days after surgery he sneaked down the hospital corridors to the kitchen. There he raided the refrigerator and ate so much that his staples burst.The law suit? He claimed it was all the hospital's fault. They should have locked the refrigerator. No, I don't know how the suit came out...just the staples. If the first sin was eating the forbidden fruit, then the second was trying to excuse it. "It's not my fault! SHE made me do it!"Wonderful things can happen when we decide to be responsible for everything we put into our mouths, everything we put into our mindsand everything we put into our hearts. Fill your body with the right foods and it will perform well. Fill your mind with learning and it will not stagnate. Fill your mind with optimistic attitudes and you will always have hope. Fill your heart with courage and you will be able to face life with confidence.Fill your heart with love and you'll never be alone. Fill every day will plenty of gratitude and you will always be happy. Only you can decide how to fill up your life. Albert Ellis has said, "The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own. You do not blame them on your mother, the ecology, or the president. You realize that you control your own destiny."Only you can choose what goes into your life. Fill up your mind, your body and your heart with the very best, and the result can be no less than magnificent. Steve Gooder
