LET JOHN DO IT

(These thoughts are added to each day. Scroll down and read previous One A Days.)

Do you have a jar of Smuckers jam in your refrigerator? Did you know that if you weighed it, it would weigh more than the label says it does? You see, Smuckers doesn’t care whether their customers weigh it or even some heavenly set of scales might one day weigh it, all they care about is doing their best and then a little more…no matter who knows it.

Would you live in a garden rather than a garbage dump? Get this kind of attitude and your life will smell of roses rather than stink with rot.

I try to make it a habit to often ask what have I done to make this world a better place? What have you done?

There is a word, responsibility, that is normally thought of as one word. Try thinking of it as two; response and ability. In short, how you have trained your abilities to respond to life is essentially who you really are. When things go wrong some people just respond by doing nothing and being nothing. Others take the initiative and try to solve whatever the problem is.

Just remember that the words “I must do something” always solves more problems than “Something must be done.”

“For each one should carry his own load.”
Galatians 6:5 (New International Version)

Have you visited my “Life Is Not What It Is But What You Make It” site. Go to Google and where it says “Google Search” type in “Wyrick’s Writings”

Have you considered sharing this site with family or friends? Just have them go to Google Search and type in “Neil Spiritual Vitamins”.

And, yes, maybe they will back track a few weeks to read other of my musings.
