TODAY'S SMILE
Bob took his 4 year old son, Josh, out to McDonald's for dinner one evening for a "guy night". As they were eating hamburgers, Josh asked "Daddy, what are these little things on the hamburger buns?"
He responded that they were tiny seeds and were ok to eat. His son was quiet for a couple of minutes and obviously in deep thought.
Finally, Josh looked up and said: Dad, if we go home and plant these seeds in our backyard, we will have enough hamburgers to last forever

TODAY'S REFLECTION
Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.
Galatians 6:7-8
One cannot plant the seeds of onions and expect petunias to come up. God's word is painfully clear. Many are living as though there are no consequences to their behavior. There will be a payday, someday. Our actions will produce results.
These words are also true of the positive as well as the negative. If we plant to please God we will also reap a harvest.
We will harvest the crop of joy and everlasting life.
TODAY'S ADVICE FROM THE OLD FARMER'S ALMANAC
When foxes bark at night, a storm is on the way
32 DAYS UNTIL WINTER
Delight yourself in the Lord and
He will give you the desires of your Heart
Psalm 37:4
I Love You All !!!
Be Blessed !!!
