"Take Time"
 
So often we see clearly how "other" people are greatly blessed; to the degree that it seems that we are short-changed in our own lives. angry man
 
But, each of us must "Take Time" to see the love, care, attention, answers to prayers, protection and intimacy which Daddy-God provides for EACH ONE OF US!
 
Thoughts like: Wow I wish, or it would be nice if I had or wouldn't it be great to experience-times when we just think about and not even pray to have it; yet Daddy-God manifests it for us. image gift boxesThis is to overwhelm and communicate His great desire to love us beyond comprehension.
 

Instead of just looking for the "Big" blessings, why not "Take Time" to count the many "small and not so noticeable" blessings which comes our way each and every day?

"Take Time" 

It will truly surprise us of the many times during the day which Daddy-God attempts to reveal Himself to us. That kind word spoken to us, the loving and warm expression directed our way and thank yous which are extended to us are just some of the many ways Daddy-God
 
communicates His love to us.  We must "Take Time" girl holding clock    to hear and see Him; for it is ALL DESIGNED to aid us in "knowing" Him even the more.  "Take Time" to "see" the leaves blowing in the wind! "Take Time" to hear the birds chirping! "Take Time" to note that we are driving or riding in a car while there are countless others standing at the bus stop. 
 
Family TimeWe must "Take Time" to enjoy our present family interactions and memories which we were blessed to experience.  "Take Time" to appreciate and embrace the respect which others extend our way!  "Take Time" to enjoy the quietness and peace in our lives, while realizing that there are many others who are not enjoying such blessings.

"Take Time"
 
Psalm 3:8-NLT-Victory comes from you, O LORD. May your blessings rest on your people!  As Children of God, this is why we must "Take Time"  clock and people    to note daily blessings; because they really and truly do rest upon us, His children.  Thank God that our blessings pour into the lives of our family and friends. As well-taught children, let's not forget to say "Thank you Lord for all "You" have done for me".  Let's not forget to demonstrate the Spirit of Thankfulness in our exchange with others; by loving, helping, serving, comforting and encouraging them.  2 boys 1 in wheelchairLet's "Take Time" to be blessed and to be a blessing.  Let's ask Daddy-God to help us to realize just how blessed we are and to realize just how involved He really is in our everyday lives.  A blessed heart will be a thankful heart! A thankful heart will be a blessed heart!

Hey Dr, Lewis,
once again you have blessed my soul with the Word and song. The song "Give Me Your Eyes"  I really like that song cause we do need to see with the eyes of the Lord so we will be on the right track and be an example of His love and Care!  I Know I am a child of the Lord, cause no body else could have brought me out from where I was but Him. I hope I am walking in His footsteps everyday and more and more as time goes on!  I really like how you challenge us to THINK! With the Word that you send it truly is food for thought all week long!  Much love to you and yours, you are in my prayers! as we draw closer to our Lord and Savoir.  V. L.
 
 
Dear Dr. Lewis:
I can feel your heart in the Spirit.  I know that this is  a very difficult time for many saints.  We must keep looking unto the Hills from which comes our help.
 Peace,Your brother in Christ   Elder A. W.

WARNING SIGN BEWARE

 This gives us something to think about with all our new electronic technology.
 
GPS
A couple of weeks ago a friend told me that someone she knew had
their car broken into while they were at a football game. Their car was parked on the green which was adjacent to the football stadium and specially allotted to football fans. Things stolen from the car included a garage door remote control, some money and a GPS which had been prominently mounted on the dashboard.
 
When the victims got home, they found that their house had been
ransacked and just about everything worth anything had been stolen.
 
The thieves had used the GPS to guide them to the house. They then
used the garage remote control to open the garage door and gain
entry to the house. The thieves knew the owners were at the football
game, They knew what time the game was scheduled to finish and so
they knew how much time they had to clean out the house. It would
appear that they had brought a truck to empty the house of its contents.

Something to consider if you have a GPS - don't put your home
address in it. Put a nearby address (like a store or gas station) so you
can still find your way home if you need to, but no one else would know
where you live if your GPS were stolen.
 
MOBILE PHONES
 
I never thought of this.......
This lady has now changed her habit of how she lists her names on
her mobile phone after her handbag was stolen. Her handbag, which
contained her cell phone, credit card, wallet... Etc...was stolen.
 
20 minutes later when she called her hubby, from a pay phone telling
him what had happened, hubby says 'I received your text asking
about our Pin number and I've replied a little while ago.'
 
When they rushed down to the bank, the bank staff told them all the
money was already withdrawn. The thief had actually used the stolen
cell phone to text 'hubby' in the contact list and got hold of the pin
number. Within 20 minutes he had withdrawn all the money from their
bank account.
 
Moral of the lesson:
Do not disclose the relationship between you and the people in
your contact list.

Avoid using names like Home, Honey, Hubby, Sweetheart, Dad,
Mom, etc....
And very importantly, when sensitive info is being asked through texts,
CONFIRM by calling back.

Also, when you're being text by friends or family to meet them
somewhere, be sure to call back to confirm that the message came
from them. If you don't reach them, be very careful about going places to meet family and friends' who text you.
