Be A Doer

A French proverb goes like this
A French proverb goes like this: Young people tell what they are doing, old people what they have done and fools what they wish to do. Don't be the latter. Be a person of action.


Well done is better than well said. ~Benjamin Franklin


But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. -James 1:22

Temper, Temper

The down fall of many a person has been their temper. The Bible says: Do not be quickly provoked in your spirit, for anger resides in the lap of fools (Eccl 7:9). Be wise and control your temper. Share


A fool gives full vent to his spirit, but a wise man quietly holds it back. -Proverbs 29:11 ESV

THE BIGGEST FOOL IN THE WORLD*

THE BIGGEST FOOL IN THE WORLD.
By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter, choosing rather to be mistreated with the people of God than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin. He considered the reproach of Christ greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt, for he was looking to the reward. Hebrews 11:24-26 (ESV)

If you had asked the Egyptians who he was, they would have said he was THE BIGGEST FOOL IN THE WORLD.

“Why,” they would say, “look at the opportunity that man had! He might have been commander of the Egyptian army, he might have been on the throne, swaying the sceptre over the whole world, if he hadn’t identified himself with those poor, miserable Hebrews! Think what an opportunity he has lost, and what a privilege he has thrown away!” He had dropped out of the public mind for forty years, and they didn’t know what had become of him, but God had His eye upon him. He was the very man of all others that God wanted, and when he met God with that question, “Who am I?” it didn’t matter who he was but who his God was. When men learn the lesson that they are nothing and God is everything, then there is not a position in which God cannot use them.

This word of wisdom is taken from Moody, Dwight Lyman. Men of the Bible (p. 20).
