"There's nothing like getting up at Five O' Clock, taking a Cold Shower...& Going for a 5 Mile Run before Breakfast.....I Start next week!
"In this New Year, may your hand always be stretched out in friendship- Never in want," Moonbeam said. (Oh Yeah! I wish that also!)
"Prosperity comes in Cycles," Coach said, "Generally, after the 'Try' Cycle!"...I had one of those once...thinking it was last year! LOL
"Honey! I need some Sensor Razor Blades!" Jack yelled as his wife left for the store..."You need some 'Sense'... Period!" she yelled back...Ouch!
Rick said he rarely ever heard from 'gruntled' employees....(Bet that's Dis-couraging!! LOL)
Do what you do so well that those who see you do what you do, are going to come back to see you do it again...and tell others that they should also come and see what you do. Walt Dizney ( He sure did a lot with a mouse!)
"The roads were treacherous last week," Lloyd said..."It's no fun when your tires are doing 90 going up Rockhouse,,,And your car is backing up!!!"

'Y' WORDS...26 DAYS OF ALPHABETICAL RESOLUTING...
IF NOT, Y NOT????
'Y' Day...When I think of Y, I think of YOU, and God does too: "See, I have engraved YOU on the Palms of my Hands; YOUR Walls are Ever before Me. (Isaiah 49:16)
But YOU, as a word, in writing or speech, is generally frowned upon, for the very reason that YOU don't like being 'preached to', or told what to do. Most of us resent it when someone starts a sentence with YOU...To us, it's like the other person is telling us what we should be doing...And it is human nature to resent that. Like the saying goes, "When YOU'RE pointing YOUR finger at me, there's three others pointing back at YOU." YOU know what I mean?...LOL
In preparing for this post, I listened to Elvis Presley sing YOU SEND ME & YESTERDAY. He did a tremendous job on both, but I couldn't help but think that Jesus Sent me.... & YOU in His Great Commission He gave before ascending back to Heaven: Go YE into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature....And YESTERDAY, what a nostalgic song! We all have a tendency to dwell on the past, when times were less fast-paced, and perhaps a little gentler on our mind........But we (YOU) must 'Go Forward'...Today is the Tomorrow we (YOU) worried about YESTERDAY. LOL
There are a few songs with Y words that I love, like the chorus, YOU ARE MY GOD, which is so very awe-inspiring. Also, the song AT CALVARY, which starts off: YEARS I spent in vanity & pride; caring not my Lord was crucified.... and YOU ARE CROWNED WITH MANY CROWNS.....YES!
So, in 2012, I am resolving to use the more inclusive 'We' more often when communicating with others...We can do this...Don't YOU think? LOL
Genesis 3:5 ASV: "The Serpent said to the woman, 'YOU surely will not die!...For God knows that in the day YOU eat from it YOUR eyes will be opened, and YOU will be like God." Satan was speaking to Eve in the Garden of Eden. This was the 'first' temptation, for as we (YOU) know, Eve did eat of the 'one' tree God said not to, and Adam did also, allowing 'Sin'..(transgression of God's Law) to enter the world...Causing God to provide a way through His Son, and His Holy Bible to Redeem (Buy Back!) His 'Crowning Creation'...YOU & even me! Praise God!
Psalm 90:4 ASV: For a thousand YEARS in YOUR sight are like YESTERDAY when it passes by, or as a watch in the night.
Psalm 65:11 ASV: YOU have crowned the YEAR with YOUR bounty, and Your paths drip with fatness.
Matt.6:19-21 ASV: Do not store up for YOURSELVES treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for YOURSELVES treasures in Heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal; for where YOUR treasure is, there YOUR heart will be also.
Matt. 11:29-30 ASV: Take my YOKE upon YOU and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and YOU will find rest for YOUR souls, for my YOKE is easy and my burden is light. (There is No comparison between the YOKE of Sin and the YOKE of God...The first brings misery & death, the second, Joy & Life, both Now & Forever! Godspeed!)

'W' Day...26 Days of Resoluting 2-22-12
O WHAT A WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL DAY...
The Apostle Peter mentions those that have turned away from God, and compares them to a sow that has been WASHED... returning to her WALLOWING in the mire. (2 Peter 2:22)...Lots of 2's there & today is the 22nd of January...'W' Day in my Alphabetical Resoluting. Praying WE WILL turn to God today and WORSHIP Him on this Lord's Day, remaining steadfast all through 2012...WHERE COULD I GO BUT TO THE LORD? Other Songs of WORSHIP: WE ARE ONE IN THE SPIRIT, WE BOW DOWN, WE PRAISE THEE O GOD, WE HAVE HEARD THE JOYFUL SOUND, WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS, WHEN WE ALL GET TO HEAVEN, WHERE HE LEADS ME, WONDERFUL WORDS OF LIFE, WHITER THAN SNOW, WHEN THE ROLL IS CALLED UP YONDER...(All Teachers love this one & since I taught school for 36 years, just wondering how many Roll Calls I made...LOL, cause most of the time I just looked around the room & noticed if anyone was missing.) But my favorite 'W' Words song is WHEN I SURVEY THE WONDROUS CROSS...Hoping to do this later this morning WHEN WE gather around the Lord's Table....
Romans 8:25: But if WE hope for that WE see not, then do WE WITH patience WAIT for it.
In the Garden, Jesus told His disciples to WATCH WHILE He WENT into the Garden to pray...WHEN He returned HE found them asleep, and said, WHAT, could ye not WATCH WITH Me one hour? WATCH and Pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is WILLING, but the flesh is WEAK. (Matt. 26: 40-41)
Psalm 143:8: Cause me to know the WAY WHEREIN I should WALK.
Mark 4:41: "WHAT manner of Man is this that even the WIND and the WAVES obey Him?"..Thus said the men on board the ship WHEN Jesus calmed the Raging Storm on the Sea of Galilee.
Romans 6:23: The WAGES of sin is death, but the Gift of God is eternal life through Jesu Christ our Lord.
John 3:5: Except a man be born of WATER and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God...(Every person that became a Christian in the Book of Acts WAS Baptized..)...Hm-m-m..Must have been a requirement for Salvation... as the Ethiopian Eunuch told Phillip, after Phillip taught him: "SEE, here is WATER, WHAT doth hinder me to be Baptized?" ( WHEN WE Obey God's Commands, He performs a 'Saving Operation'...Col. 2:12)
Rev. 22:17: WHOSOEVER WILL let him take the WATER OF LIFE freely.
Gal. 6:9: Let us not be WEARY in WELL doing; for in due season WE shall Reap, if WE faint not. Godspeed! Let us WORK FOR THE NIGHT IS COMING....WHEN man WORKS no more...
