Motto of Success

Motto of Success:  “Don’t die until you’re dead.”

Everyday additional energy is added to the brain.  

This means that you and I can be “more alive” 

everyday.  However, this energy must be used 

on a daily basis…it cannot be stored up.

Instructions for using the new daily energy:

1.      Constructive thought must be added daily.  

Such thoughts are available to each of us 

without charge.  Reading is an excellent source 

of worthwhile thoughts.  Daily Bible reading 

will always yield rich dividends.

2.      Give encouragement with both words and 

actions today.  There are always opportunities.

NOTE TO HUMANS: These instructions will 

prevent the embarrassment of coming to your 

senses one day only to discover that you 

haven’t any.

            

ARE YOU QUICK OR SLOW?

   “Everyone should be quick to hear, slow to speak

    and

        slow to become angry.”  James 1:29

QUICK TO LISTEN.  James is encouraging us to listen eagerly to

God’s word.  A good listener is wise between the ears.  You and I cannot afford to have “sound proof” heads to the instructions of our Creator.

SLOW TO SPEAK.  The tongue is in a wet place…it can slip so easily.  Trying to “unsay” a cutting remark or a bit of gossip is just about as easy as putting toothpaste back into a tube.

SLOW TO BECOME ANGRY.  Remember “anger” is just one letter short of “danger.”  Angry words can destroy love.  Angry actions can devastate life.
