Jeremiah 9:23-24, “The wise should not boast of their wisdom, nor the strong of their strength, nor the rich of their wealth. If any want to boast, they should boast that they know and understand me” 

Why? Because that’s what life is all about. Knowing God is what matters most. The God of the universe loves you and wants to have a relationship with you. Getting close to God will give you peace and perspective. Now that’s good news

For the first time in many years, a friend of ours traveled from his rural town to the city to attend a movie.

After buying his ticket he stopped at the concession stand to purchase some popcorn. Handing the attendant $11.50, my friend couldn’t help but comment, “The last time I came to the movie, popcorn was only 15 cents.”

“Well, sir,” the attendant replied with a grin, “You’re really going to enjoy yourself. We have sound now.”

“Everything else is worthless when compared with the infinite value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have discarded everything else, counting it all as garbage, so that I could gain Christ” Philippians 3:8 NLT

Are you doing that? Are you seeking God with all your heart every day?

Remember: You are as close to God as you choose to be. You’re going to become a friend of God when you want to become a friend of God.

Our parish priest suddenly became ill and asked his twin brother, also a priest, to fill in for him and conduct a funeral Mass scheduled for that day. His brother, of course, agreed.

It was not until the brother was accompanying the casket down the aisle, however, that he realized that he had neglected to ask the gender of the deceased. This was information that he would need for his remarks during the service.

Thinking quickly, as he approached the first pew where the deceased’s relatives were seated, he nodded toward the casket and whispered to one woman, “Brother or sister?”

“Cousin,” she replied.

“I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead”  Ephesians 1:19-20 NLT

An elderly man was telling his neighbor, “I just bought a new hearing aid. It cost me four thousand dollars, but it’s state of the art…it’s perfect.”

“Really?” answered the neighbor. “What kind is it?”

“Well, I’ll tell you. It’s two thirty-three.”

“My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life” John 10:10 NLT

If you’re not living a full and satisfying life, it’s not because God doesn’t want you to have it.

Man: “The light was on.”

“You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free” Galatians 5:13 NIV

Freedom is your calling. God doesn’t want you to live a buttoned-down, constrained life. He wants you to have an abundant life.

God made us what we are. In Christ Jesus, God made us to do good works, which God planned in advance for us to live our lives doing” Ephesians 2:10 NCV

Before you were born, God had already decided what contribution he wanted you to make with your life. God didn’t put you on this planet just to take up space, to use resources, and to die. No! He put you here to serve him by serving others.

He: “This article says women use about 30,000 words a day, whereas men only use 15,000 words.”

She: “That’s probably because a woman has to say everything twice.”

He: “…What?”

John 13:17, Jesus tells his followers: “Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them”. The blessings of the Bible come when you put its teachings into practice.

A man who hadn’t attended church in years suddenly began attending faithfully on Sunday mornings instead of going fishing as was his normal habit.

The pastor was highly gratified and at the end of service one morning told him, “How wonderful it makes me feel to see you at services with your good wife!”

“Well, Preacher,” said the fisherman, “Quite honestly, it’s a matter of choice. I’d much rather hear your sermon than hers.”
