O LOVE THAT WILL NOT LET ME GO

" ONE LINERS FOR YOUR SOUL" & ONE A DAY

   Take these seeds of thought below and turn THEM into a wisdom tree.

A Dangerous Experiment Called Prayer

Would you be willing to conduct an experiment that could make you feel better

than you have felt for a long, long time?  Is it difficult?  Yes.  Mind boggling? Yes. 

Doable? Yes!

Spend the next 90 seconds praying that God will help someone who has recently

hurt you. 

Pray to be able to forgive someone who has done something to you that is unforgivable. Pray for that person who gave you the finger on the highway this morning.

Pray for that wife, husband, child or friend who made you unhappy.  Pray for the boss or

co-worker(s), who make your existence unbearable.  Pray for the unlovable.

I accept the fact that you think I'm crazy to suggest it.  I do, however, have to remind you that it isn't my idea but the Lord's.  And just remember, the consequences of your anger are far worse than whatever were the causes of it.

George Matheson who wrote, “O Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go” went blind at an early age.

The woman he loved most almost tore his life in two.

But George Matheson still wrote this magnificent hymn.

Beethoven, great master of music, at the very summit of his career went stone deaf. He could not even hear his own last symphony played, but Beethoven did not run over in a corner and pout or play out the rest of his existence in an extended nothingness.

Rather, he stayed in the stream of life writing even more brilliantly than before.

Henry Van Dyke who knew his share of pain wrote…

“With eager heart and will on fire,
I sought to win my great desire.
“Peace shall be mine, “I said, but life
Grew bitter in the endless strife.

My soul was weary, and my pride
Was wounded deep. To heaven I cried
“God give me peace or I must die.”
The dumb stars glittered no reply.

Broken at last I bowed my head
Forgetting all myself and said;
“Whatever comes His wil be done,”
And in that moment peace was won.

They loved life and met their challenges with action and attitudes that said “I will give my best even on those days I feel my worst.” And we are blessed by such fortitude as were they.

"Be Wise"
“Be very careful, then, how you live--not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is.” Ephesians 5:15-17
