FAITH, WITHOUT WORKS, IS DEAD!

Are you trying to succeed in life? Have you said, "I'm waiting on the Lord to help me," or perhaps, "I have the Faith to believe that God is going to bless me with a good job?" How many times have you said that now that your children are grown, you have the Faith to believe that you will get your GED and later go to college and still later, be a successful entrepreneur? Last question: Just how many times.....have you 'recited' this speech? My sister, my brother, here's a word of encouragement. With your FAITH, GET UP!! Find out what you need to do to get equipped! GO Get Empowered, which is part of your equipment!! Start speaking L-I-F-E into every dead situation in your life! Forward, MARCH!!! Congratulations, you're on your way!! Please know this: "This is how it is with faith: if it is alone and has no actions with it, then it is dead!" James 2:17 (Good News For Modern Man Bible) God Bless!

WHAT I SAY SHOULD MATCH WHAT I DO!!

If I Say I love you, what I Do, will prove it! If I Say I'm going to help you, what I Do, will show it! When I Say I forgive you, what I Do will convince you! If I Say I am victorious, what I Do, will punctuate it!! Beginning right now, let your "yes" be yes and your "no" be no!!

"Just say 'Yes' or 'No' - anything else you have to say comes from the Evil One."

Matthew 5:37 (Good New For Modern Man Bible)

EARTH TO PARENTS!! EARTH TO CHILDREN!!

PARENTS AND CHILDREN, what are the consequences of failure in the classroom? The list is very long, but we'll only name a few.

• 
  
  Unqualified for a job, or a desirable job


• 
  
  Feeling out of place in society, low self-esteem


• 
  
  Greater possibility of choosing a life of crime (drugs, prostitution, robbery, murder.....and the beat goes on)

IDEA: Parents - You have a few more hours before it will be time to get your children to the school bus stop. Students - You can NOT afford to miss even one day of not being in the classroom and learning all you can! Many people died so YOU could go to school and get (earn) an EDUCATION!!

Earth To Parents and Children: "FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION!!" "Train up a child in the way he should go; and when he is old, he will not depart from it." Proverbs 22:6

I'M ALIVE!! NOW WHAT?

WOW!! It's September 1, 2008 and I AM ALIVE!! It's a NEW day and a NEW chance...for me to "get it right." Whatever failures I had on yesterday, being ALIVE today gives me a new opportunity. Well, if you're reading this, you KNOW that you are BLESSED!! Now I challenge you to do this: Make a list of all the people in your life and contact them, via e-mail, youtube, your website, your blog, whatever way you can. Wait a minute! Start at home, your family - spouse, children, siblings. Keep going....your neighbors, friends, enemies, classmates, employer(s), co-workers...Keep going....Now here's the CHALLENGE: Speak GOOD, not Evil; Speak BELIEF, not Doubt; Speak POSITIVE, not Negative. Speak YOU CAN, not Can't. SPEAK LIFE to each of them!! Feeling better? Remember this: "Death and Life are in the power of the tongue..." Proverbs 18:21a
