FROM TODAY'S READING (3/11/2016)...
The mistakes to avoid:
- Remorse over yesterday's failures.
- Anxiety over today's problems.
- Worry over tomorrow's uncertainty.
- Waste of the moment's opportunity.
- Procrastination with one's present duty.
- Resentment of another's success.
- Criticism of a neighbor's imperfection.
- Impatience with youth's immaturity.
- Skepticism of our nation's future.
- Unbelief in God's providence.
by William Arthur Ward (Up Words)
James 3:13, 17-18 (NLT) If you are wise and understand God’s ways, prove it by living an honorable life, doing good works with the humility that comes from wisdom...But the wisdom from above is first of all pure. It is also peace loving, gentle at all times, and willing to yield to others. It is full of mercy and the fruit of good deeds. It shows no favoritism and is always sincere. And those who are peacemakers will plant seeds of peace and reap a harvest of righteousness.
