The pray without ceasing experiment

01.12.2009 by Bob 9 comments

In 1 Thessalonians 5:17 it says that we should “pray without ceasing”. Unless you are a monk, you probably don’t have the opportunity to dedicate all of your waking hours to prayer. We can be sure that the apostle Paul was not suggesting that we quit our jobs to go up on a mountain and pray all day, because he had some strong things to say about providing for our families (1 Tim 5:8)

I had this passed along to me and thought it was worth sharing. Enjoy. During this election year let’s be reminded of these words: “* You cannot help the poor, by destroying the rich.* You cannot strengthen the weak, by weakening the strong.* You cannot bring about prosperity, by discouraging thrift.

Stephen King on giving

10.04.2008 by Bob 0 comments

I found this quote from Stephen King about giving. I had remembered hearing about his accident in the news a couple years ago, but it was interesting to see what he learned from that unfortunate event. It really makes you think about things differently. So I want you to consider making your life one long gift to others. And why not? All you have is on loan, anyway. All that lasts is what you pass on…

Apparently his accident that he had a few years back helped put things in perspective for him. I share the quote because it is something that I want to keep in the forefront of my mind as I am navigating through life.

My five favorite quotes from Warren Buffett

08.12.2008 by Bob 2 comments

These are my thoughts about my five favorite quotes from Warren Buffett… “Do business with people you like and who share your objectives.”Isn’t there more to life than money? I have met people who I wouldn’t work with for a million dollars, haven’t you? People are people and you will never be completely insulated from people who bug you, but if you are hiring them or choosing to work with them, they might as well be people you enjoy being around.

Debt is like wetting the bed…

I found this quote about debt and I love it…

“Borrowing money is like wetting your bed in the middle of the night. At first all you feel is warmth and release. But very, very quickly comes the awful, cold discomfort of reality.”

Your purpose in life

06.09.2008 by Bob 5 comments

I have always (and still do believe) that God’s will for our lives will line up with our desires. He often calls people to do things that they may not think they are capable of and along everyone’s journeys there will be moments of pain and discomfort. But, following our passion is often a good first step in finding God’s plan for our lives.

Learn to say NO

05.14.2008 by Bob 8 comments

Learning to say NO to ourselves is one of the most beneficial habits we can develop. I call it a habit because it is truly is. People who never tell themselves NO have a difficult time doing it. On the other hand, people who regularly tell themselves NO find that although it may not be easy, it becomes less difficult the more you do it.
