WHICH IS BETTER TO BE? A WINDOW OR A DOOR

One wonders about a man who could ask to be placed on his tombstone the following.

“Don’t bother me now.

Don’t bother me never.

I want to be dead

Forever and ever.

How much better to hear yet another man sing to the stars

“I heard the voice of Jesus say,

I am this dark world’s light.

Look unto me thy morn shall rise

And all thy day be bright.D

Want to make it right?  Then remember the answer of Henry David Thoreau when he was asked as he lay dying, “Have you made peace with God?”

Pausing to gain enough breath he said, “We never quarreled.”

It is easier to be a window than a door.

Because a window you look out at life and a door you go through to become a part of life.

It is far too easy to marry the ideas and attitudes of the lukewarm; to become disciples of the indifferent. 

"Here I stand," said Martin Luther and proved that one man's commitment can make a difference. "Here I stay," say many and enshrine the status quo.

"Make a joyful noise unto the Lord"...the world is listening

"Do not hide your faith under bushes."...the world is looking.

Someone once wrote, "The entrance fee into the Christian life is nothing, but the annual subscription is everything." Because Christianity is not just a belief, it is an investment.

Even more than that it must be an involvement.

Every day is a voting booth. And when it comes to moral values we must not stumble and we must not strut but we certainly must stand firm.

Do you believe Christianity is a fact? Then work to make it a force.

You faith a shining light both for you and all who know you.

A quote below from ONE A DAY blog entitled   DON’T HANG OUT WITH YOU ANGER!

Eight fingers and two thumbs.  So describes your hands, which are really history books on review.  Look at them and let them remind you of all that they have done in your lifetime.  For yes, they have been servants of your thoughts and beliefs translated into action.

Ask   yourself how many have they helped?

How many have they hurt?  When, and where and why?  When you have
