Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air.
You name them - work, family, health, friends and spirit, and you're keeping all of these in the air.
You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back.
But the other four balls: family, health, friends and spirit are made of glass.
If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same.
You must understand that and strive for balance in your life.
How?
• Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we're different that each of us is special.
• Don't set your goals too high by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you.
• Don't take for granted things closest to your heart. Cling to them as you would life, for without them, life is meaningless.
• Don't let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future. By living life only one day at a time, you live ALL the days of your life.
• Don't give up when you have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
• Don't be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us and hold us together.
• Don't be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn to be brave.
• Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find. The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
• Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been, but also where you are going.
• Don't forget that a person's greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.
• Don't be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily.
• Don't use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved.
• Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way.
~"Five Balls of Life" by Brian G. Dyson~
My name is ujwal and I do ministry in india from last 20 years and family too
I like to know you more and make friendship with you
WHich church do you go ? Did you visited india anytime if not I like to invite you to come to india for short time and come with me to share word of God to unreach people Iam serious I love you to come
Don't go for looks, they can deceive.
Don't go for wealth even that fades away.
Go for someone who makes you smile.
There are moments in life
when you really miss someone
that you want to pick them up
from your dreams and hug them.
Hope you dream of that someone.
Dream what you want to dream,
go where you want to go,
be what you want to be,
because you have only one life
and one chance to do all the things
you want in life.
May you have...
Enough happiness to make you sweet
Enough trials to make you strong
Enough sorrow to keep you human
Enough hope to make you happy
And enough money to buy gifts.
When one door of happiness closes, another opens.
But we often took so long at the closed door,
that we don't see the one which has been opened for us.
The best kind of friend is the one
you could sit on a porch, swing with,
never saying a word and then walk away feeling
like that was the best conversation you've had.
It's true that we don't know
what we've got until we lose it,
but it's also true that we don't know what
we've been missing until it arrives.
Always put yourself in other's shoes.
If you feel that it hurts you,
it probably does hurt the person too.
A careless word may kindle a strife;
A cruel word may wreck a life
A timely word may level stress
A lovely word may heal and bless.
The beginning of love is to let those we love
be perfectly themselves and
not to twist them with our own image,
otherwise we love only the reflection
of ourselves we find in them.
The happiest people don't necessarily
have the best of everything,
they just make the most of everything
that comes along the way.
Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people
before meeting the right one so that
when we finally meet the right person,
we should know how to be grateful for that gift.
It takes a minute to have a crush on someone,
an hour to like someone and a day to love someone
- but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.
Happiness lies for those who cry,
those who hurt,
those who have searched
and those who have tried.
For only they can appreciate the importance
of people who have touched their lives.
Love is when you take away the feeling,
the passion, the romance
and find out you still care for that person.
A sad thing about life is that when you meet
someone who means a lot to you
only to find out in the end that it was never
bound to be and you just have to let go.
Love starts with a smile,
develops with a kiss
and ends with a tear.
Love comes to those who still hope
even though they've been disappointed,
to those who still believe
even though they've been betrayed,
need to love those who still love,
even though they've been hurt before.
It hurts to love someone,
and not to be loved in return
but what is most painful is to love someone
and never finds the courage
to let the person know how you feel.
The brightest future will always
be based on a forgotten past.
You can't go on well in life until you let go
of your past failures and heartaches.
Never say goodbye when you still want to try;
Never give up when you still feel you can take it;
Never say you don't love that person anymore
when you can't let go.
Giving someone all your love
is never an assurance that they'll love you back.
Don't expect love in return,
just wait for it to grow in their hearts
but if it doesn't,
be content it grew in yours.
There are things you love to hear
but you would never hear it from
the person whom you would like to hear it from,
but don't be deaf to hear it from the person
who says it with his heart.
When you were born, you were crying
and everyone around you was smiling.
Live your life to the fullest so that when you die,
you're smiling and everyone around you is crying.

'Keep your heart with all diligence,
for out of it spring the issues of life..'
Proverbs 4:23
Today's Scripture reading emphasizes the importance of caring for our heart.
Are we keeping spiritually fit?
WEIGHT: Do we need to lose the weight of unnecessary burdens and cares?
PULSE: Are we maintaining a steady rhythm of gratitude and praise?
BLOOD PRESSURE: Is our trust greater than our anxiety?
DIET: Are we enjoying the life-giving nutrients of the Word of God?
Have you checked your heart lately?
To keep spiritually fit,Consult with the Great Physician...
O Lord, You see what's in the heart...
There's nothing hid from You;
So help us live the kind of life..
that's filled with love for You...Amen...
hello.my dear friend...

God bless u...
Hi Lyle, it is good to meet you. If you have any questions , if I can help I will be glad to.
Every one of us had to learn how it all works, but it is such a blessing to connect with believers from all over the world. Many of these people i talk to more than my own church. I have been blessed in so many ways by being here.
So have a blessed day and am looking forward to getting to know you.
In the love of Jesus.
Bob
Hi Lyle, you will discover that many people you meet will have different takes on different issues as Christians. Check out my group;
Building A Sure Foundation For Christian growth.
I believe there are some things that we must embrace as foundational issues as Christians that we can not compromise.
The best thing to do is to really dig in and study the Word of God. In a bank the tellers are trained to know the authentic so that if a counterfeit comes along the will catch it.
Check out this video it is really intence about a pastor who picks up a hitch hiker on His way home from church.
In the love of Jesus.
Bob
So glad to see you joined Building a Sure foundation for Christian Growth. I hope if you have any questions that you feel free to ask. My pastor and myself are working together to create this into a class for new believers in my Church. I really believe that many Christians are frustrated because they are expected to to figure it out on their own without any guidance. These foundation stones of truth need to be in place so we can develop healthy Christian lives for Christ.
In the love of Jesus.
Bob
The center chapter of the BIBLE is Psalm 118.. there are 594 chapters before and after Psalm 118
And if we will add this we will get 1188... in which the center verse of the BIBLE is PSALM 118:8
What is the significant of Psalm 118:8 in God's perfect will for our lives?
It is better to trust in the LORD, than to put confidence in man.-- Psalm 118:8
When things get tough, always remember faith doesn't get you around trouble..
it gets you through it!
When you relinquish the desire to control your future you obtain happiness...
Prayer:
Father God, bless my friend in whatever it is that you know he/she may be needing this day....
May their life be full of your peace, prosperity and power as they seek to have closer relationship with you. Amen...
I feel compelled to comment upon a point you made in a discussion forum. You are right about the danger of the teaching of a pre-tribulation rapture. How many "believers" will fall away when they realize that they may have to give their lives for Christ in the great tribulation?
It is unpopular to hold to the truth that Christ gave us in Matthew 24, but there is a great blessing in store for those who preach the truth when few be willing to hear it.
I am blessed to know that you know the truth about this dangerous deception.
I am being made aware that Jesus is coming sooner than many think. Many will not be ready for His return. We need to be ready, wise virgins, keeping oil in our lamps.
Please do keep on praying for the request of mine down below, and I know I can count on you to do it:
Please "WIN the 10/40 WINDOWS" for JESUS CHRIST.
The 10/40 Windows (located between 10 - 40 degrees North of Equator - between West Africa to East Asia) need Missionaries, have no church at all, and there live about 40 percent of the world population. INDONESIA, my country is in the 10-40 windows though we have churches. Please also pray for ISRAEL and all over the world. Let's get on our knees, praying hand in hand with me for their revival. I look forward to the day when the Lord who I kneel to worship will be recognized by all the living and the dead as the One True Lord.
Thank you so very much
