Hey Pastor Di,

You are so right! And I love that 'come on down with the Browns...hang out with the Smiths...get in where you fit in.

Now you know I can take it a step further...Philippians 4:11-13 - I'm not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned TO BE CONTENT IN EVERY SITUATION...whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.  I can do EVERYTHING THROUGH HIM...WHO GIVES ME STRENGTH!

PHILIPPIANS 4:11-13 IS MY FAVORITE SCRIPTURE!!!

I know that it's 4:30 am but it's off to work I go...But you know I had to check the BAF message board before I left...In doing so, what do I find?...A jewel of a post!...Your insight brings to light the big picture and zeros in on why people for whatever reason hate on others...If they paid more attention to their own lives they wouldn't have time to hate on and covet others...Your words bring to mind something my mother always told me...She'd say, "Never be jealous of what others have because you don't know what they did to get it and what they are doing to keep it."

As for the William DeVaughn song, they dont' make them like that anymore!

Thanks for the motivation!

Good morning, beautiful!

That was the main purpose of my message - to not covet others' things..gifts...blessings!  And your mom was so on point - you don't know what they did to GET it and what they are doing to KEEP it!

Blessings to you!

Hi ((((((Donna)))))

I am so happy to be at a place in my life where I am in constant thanks for what I've got because I so remember when I used to complain about this or that.  Thanks Donna for the reminder to make us all reflect that we don't have so bad after all. BTW, I love that old school jam. 

People are so worried about what they eat between Christmas and the New Year, but they really should be worried about what they eat between the New Year and Christmas. ~Author Unknown

Hey Sis,

Especially as we are hearing DAILY about folks losing houses and having to live/move to the streets...no jobs...no healthcare...no roofs over their heads...so right now...AT THIS MOMENT...I thank GOD that I am not one of those people TODAY!
