Bravo Jimmy Fallon, bravo.
This speaks
I had a friend post this on my FB wall as a joke - I’ve referenced it several times over the years of giving messages to students. My loving aunt embroidered this prayer in a picture frame for me as a gift when I was a kid, and it hung over my bed for several years. Unfortunately, it had the adverse effect of comfort. It freaked me out so badly that instead I would go to sleep praying to God that I would indeed see the morning. At any rate, enjoy the clip… and pray something nice over your children instead :)
There is surely a future hope for you, and your hope will not be cut off. (Proverbs 23:18)
This made me laugh today :)
Beautiful people do not just happen…
The most beautiful people we have known are those who have
known defeat,
known suffering,
known struggle,
known loss,
and have found their way out of the depths.
These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern…
Beautiful people do not just happen…

Often times, our greatest strengths are found in our greatest weaknesses…
It is not a question of God allowing or not allowing things to happen. It is part of living. Some things we do to ourselves, other things we do to each other. Our Father knows about every bird which falls to the ground, but He does not always prevent it from falling. What are we to learn from this? That our response to what happens is more important than what happens. Here is a mystery: one man’s experience drives him to curse God, while another man’s identical experience drives him to bless God. Your response to what happens is more important than what happens

I stumbled across this today and was reminded how much I thoroughly cracked up the first time I saw this. Gotta love Animaniacs.
I don’t want to shill for a “commercial”, but this makes me endlessly happy.
