My calling is sure. My challenge is big. My vision is clear. My desire is strong. My influence is eternal. My impact is critical. My values are solid. My faith is tough. My mission is urgent.My purpose is unmistakable My direction is forward. My heart is genuine. My strength is supernatural. My reward is promised And my God is real. I refuse to be dismayed, disengaged, disgruntled, discouraged, or distracted. Neither will I look back, stand back, fall back, go back or sit back. I do not need applause, flattery, adulation, prestige, stature or veneration. I have no time for business as usual, mediocre standards, small thinking, normal expectations, average results, ordinary ideas, petty disputes or low vision. I will not give up, give in, bail out, lie down, turn over, quit or surrender. I am a minister. That is what I do.

<><> Does She Cook <><>
 
When our second child was on the way, my wife and I attended a pre-birth class aimed at couples who had already had at least one child. The instructor raised the issue of breaking the news to the older child. It went like this:
"Some parents," she said, "tell the older child, 'We love you so much we decided to bring another child into this family.' But think about that. Ladies, what if your husband came home one day and said, 'Honey, I love you so much I decided to bring home another wife.'"
 
One of the women spoke up immediately. "Does she cook?"

I was  getting my hair cut at a neighborhood shop, and I asked the
barber when would be the best time to bring in my two-year-old son.
 
Without hesitation, the barber answered, "When he's four."
 
 
<><> New Commandments <><> 
 
1- Thou shalt not worry, for worrying is the most unproductive of all human activities
 
2- Thou shalt not be afraid, for most things we fear never come to pass
 
3- Thou shalt not cross bridges before thou comes to them
 
4- Thou shalt not handle but one problem at a time, leaving the others to The Lord until their proper time
 
5- Thou shalt not take troubles to bed, for they make poor bedfellows
 
6- Thou shalt not try to carry the problems of the world on your shoulders, for only One hath a back that strong
 
7- Thou shalt be a good listener, for God often speaks through the mouths of others
 
8- Thou shalt not try to relive yesterday, for good or ill, it is gone forever. Live and rejoice in today
 
9- Thou shalt dismiss feelings of frustration, for they are rooted in self-pity and interfere with positive action
 
10- Thou shalt count thy blessings, never overlooking the smallest, for our biggest blessings are often composed of our smaller ones
 
Have a Blessed Day
Dave and Barbara
