CHOOSE YOUR COLOUR
Read:
Acts 16:16-25
.....................................................................................
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
-Phillippians 4:13
.....................................................................................
A college student decided one summer that he would earn
money for his tuition by selling Bibles door-to-door.
He set out at the home of the school president.
The president's wife came to the door and explained politely
that her family didn't need any more books.
As the student walked away, she saw him limping.
"Oh, I'm sorry," She exclaimed. "I didn't know you were disabled!"
When the student turned around, she realized she had offended
him. So she realized she had offended him. So she quickly added,
"I didn't mean anything except admiration. But doesn't your
disability colour your life?" To which the student responded,
"Yes, it does. But thank God, I can choose the colour."
How do you see your cup...? Half full Or Half empty...?
When Paul and Silas were imprisoned at Philippi and their backs
were raw from beatings, they sang hymns (Act 16:23-25).
They chose the bright colour of praise instead of the dark colours
of depression, bitterness, and despair.
No matter what affliction or crisis we may face, we too can
decide how we will respond. With the comforter that is the Holy
Spirit,we can refuse to paint our lives in the dull grey of grumbling
and complaining. Instead, our chosen colour can be azure blue of
contentment because God's help is always available. - VCG
He gives me joy in place of sorrow;
He gives me love that casts out fear;
He gives me sunshine for my shadow,
And "beauty for ashes" here. - Crabbe
How do you see your cup?
Glorify God in your weakness rather than sob!
Praise God in times of insufficient rather than complain !
Adore him in times of tribulation rather than being moody & broken !
is your cup Half full or Half empty?
GOD CHOOSES WHAT WE GO THROUGH;
WE CHOOSE HOW WE GO THROUGH IT.... God bless you!!!
