Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them.
Andy Rooney

Dear God, Change me. Rearrange me. Help me fit in when I must, and show me how to stand out when I can. I aspire to be greater tomorrow than I am today. More holy. More kind. More useful. Praise to You, who makes all the pieces fit.

It’s a slow process but quitting won’t speed it up. Instead, practice patience. Try a new approach. Find the thrill of seeing it through to completion. May God bless you with the power to persevere.

2 Corinthians 3:18 And we all are being changed into God’s likeness from one degree of glory to another.

THE 198 YEAR-OLD MAN

Abraham, sitting at his tent door, welcomes a traveler bowed with age.

After feeding the man, Abraham asks him to bless the “Most High God”.

The man refuses, revealing that he worships a different god.

Enraged, Abraham casts the man out into the wilderness.

At midnight, God asks Abraham where the stranger is.

After hearing what happened, God rebukes Abraham, asking,

“Have I borne with him these hundred ninety and eight years, and nourished him, and cloathed him, notwithstanding his rebellion against me, and couldst not thou, that art thyself a sinner, bear with him one night?”.

Filled with remorse, Abraham searches for the man, finds him, and brings him back to his tent. The next day, he sends the man away with gifts.

~Benjamin Franklin
