YOU CAN, IF YOU SAY YOU CAN.

ANONYMOUS

Figure out for yourself, my lad.
You've all the greatest a man/woman has had,

Two arms, two hands, two legs, two eyes;
a brain to use, if you would be wise.

With this equipment they all began.
So, start from the top and say I can.

Look them over, the wise and the great.
They take their food from a common plate.

With similar knives and forks they use.
With similar laces they tie their shoes.

The world considers them brave and smart.
But, you've all they had when they made their start.

You can triumph and come to skill.
You can be great if you only will.

You are well equipped for what fights you choose.
You have arms and legs and a brain to use.

And a man/woman who has risen great deeds to do,
Began his/her life with no more than you.

You are the handicap you must face.
You are the one; you must choose your place.

You must say where you want to go.
How much to study the truth to know.

God has equipped you for life
But, lets you choose success or strife.

Courage, you warriors, must come from the soul within.
The man/woman must first his/her will to win.

So, figure out for yourself, my lad.
You were born with all the great that have had.

With this equipment they all began.
Get hold of yourself and say I can; I can;

I will; I must!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GOD IS WATCHING YOU, NOT THEM!! ARE YOU KEEPING AT YOUR WORK?
Author: Unknown The Lord has given to every man his work! It is his busines to do it, and the devil's business to hinder him or her, if he can. Surely, as God has given you a work to do, satan will try to hinder you. He may present other things more promising. He may allure you by worldly prospects. He may assault you with slander, torment you with false accusations, set you to work defending your character, employ pious persons to lie about you, editors to assail you, and excellent men to slander you. You may have pilate and Herod, Annas and Caiaphas all combined against you, and Judas standing by, ready to sell you for thirty pieces of silver, and you may wonder why all those things came upon you. Can you not see that the whole thing is brought about through the craft of the devil to draw you off from your work and hinder your obedience to God?

Keep about your work. Do not flinch because the lion roars; Do not stop to stone the devil's dogs; do not fool away your time chasing the devil's rabbits. Do your work. Let liars lie, let sectarians quarrel, let corporations resolve, let editors publish, let the devil do his worst; but see to it that nothing hinders you from fulfilling the work that God has given you.

He has not sent you to make money, He has not commanded you to get rich. He has never bidden you to defend your character. He has not set you at work to contradict falsehood which satan and his servants may start to peddle. If you do these things, you will do nothing else; you will be at work for yourself and not for the Lord.

Keep about your work. Let your aim be as steady as a star. Let the world brawl and bubble. You may be assaulted, wronged, insulted, slandered, wounded, and rejected; you may be abused by foes, forsaken by friends, and despised and rejected of men; but see to it with steadfast determination, with unfaltering zeal, that you pursue the great purpose of your life and object of your being, until at last you can say, "I have finished the work which Thou gavest me to do". Amen and Amen.

HEAVEN'S GROCERY STORE
ANONYMOUS

• As I got a little closer, the door came open wide.
  When I came to myself, I was standing right inside.
• Everything a Christian needs is in that grocery store.
  And what you can’t carry, while just come back for more.
• I got a box or two of wisdom, a bag or two of faith.
  I couldn’t miss the holy spirit, for he was all over the place.
• I did not forget salvation, for salvation that was free.
  So, I tried to get enough to save both you and me.
• But as I started up the isle, I saw prayer; so I had to put that in.
  For I knew that when I stepped outside I would run right into sin.
• Then I asked the Angel, how much do I owe?
  He smiled and said, just take your basket wherever you should go.
• YES, BROTHERS AND SISTERS, JESUS PAID YOUR BILL MANY YEARS AGO. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO TO ATTAIN SALVATION IS ACCEPT THE FREE GIFT. SALVATION IS A GIFT AND THAT WE ARE SAVED BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH (EPH. 2:8).
• Accept that you are a sinner and cannot save yourself [For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23)].
• Repent of your sins, i.e., confess and forsake them [If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness (I John 1:9)].
• Believe that Jesus has already provided the way of salvation [For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life (John 3:16)].
• Know that acceptance or rejection of Jesus Christ determines whether you go to hell or heaven [He that believeth on the Son have everlasting life; and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him (John 3:36)].
