Jonah ran from God
Naomi was a widow
Job went bankrupt

...no more excuses now. God can use you to your full potential!!!
Besides, you aren't the message, you are just the messenger!

Just a little reminder. Keep your chin up everybody. A good way to do this- laugh. Live every day to its fullest. Love as often as you can. Laugh as though the angels laughed with you.

Much love,
Sis Micah

:funnyface:When you break it down like that, it makes me wonder what a modern day list would include with some of the 'rank & file' boys.:shocked:

That is so great Cali,, I have received that list at work many times..

It just proves that humans are just that HUMAN.. we make mistakes and if we are humble. we will take counsil from other and readjust our very steps...


Did not God himself warn Cain?? he tried to prevent him from murder..
Why did he not just stop him?? I have thought that up till the misconduct is acually done he would have "judged him maybe to soon"
sometimes I am sure that people may go to the edge but I am sure that some stop before they sin while others fall into the pitt..

I posted this on the prayer thread, but it sort of belongs here, too.

Dear Lord. So far today I've done all right.
I have not gossiped.
I have not lost my temper, lied or cheated.
I haven't been greedy, grumpy, nasty, selfish or overindulgent.
I am very thankful for that.
But in a few minutes, Lord, I am going to get out of bed,
and from that moment on I am going to need a lot more help.

Much love to all!:heartbeat:
Sis Micah:whistle:

Thanks Sis Micah for posting this. It is very relevant for all of us. All of us need the Jehovah's help in avoiding doing things that are wrong. We can never overcome wrong doing by our own efforts.

Warm Christian Love
