Food for Thought


So I couldn't decide what to write on my blog because no profound thoughts have hit me in the last few days. haha. So I stole some quotes from other people and have decided to share them with you along with this amazing picture of Guerda.






Happiness is like Jam - You can't spread even a little without getting some on yourself.

Where God's love is, there is no fear, because God's perfect love drives out fear. 1 John 4:18
That is one of my very favorite scriptures.

Good Communication is as stimulating as black coffee and just as hard to sleep after.
- Anne Morrow Lindbergh
That quote is so true. No I don't drink coffee and I only have a few times but I know the affects that to much coffee can have. As far as communication I love talking to my friends and I don't mean the hi how are you kind of talks. I love the deep conversations about life and the bible.

Christian is a great noun but a poor adjective.
This is extremly true and I think to many people add christian into a list of traits about themselves instead of making it the center of thier life.

Don't place God as number one in your life. He should be YOUR LIFE!!!
- Nazarene Youth Conference '03
THere are no other words to say except for I love this quote alot.

Others believe it when they see it, Christians see it because they believe it.
- Nazarene Youth Conference '03
This quote reminds me of all the little miracles that have happened around me. Well in the last year I guess I should say big miracles. God is amazing but only if we look in the right spot. If we are looking for manna to fall from heaven we may miss something as simple as a friend handing us a bottle of water when we are thirsty. Miracles happen all the time just sometimes we are too preoccupied looking for big miracles that we miss the little ones that happen everyday.

There you go Food for thoughts, I hope that you enjoyed the quotes as much as I did. I love quotes and poems so I have a very big collection and I hope to share some more in the future.

Yes, that's a great picture of Guerda. Tell your Mom, Guerda's mom is going on our trip in April. She just e-mailed me a couple days ago. So they will be meeting their daughters for the first time together.

Thanks for the quotes.
