TODAY’S SMILE

ALL I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT LIFE I LEARNED FROM EATING CHOCOLATE

Some people are semi-sweet; others are just plain nutty.

Don't cry over spilled milk - unless, of course, it's chocolate milk.

Blind dates are like chocolate - they are usually chunky and they quickly disappear.

When life presents you a rocky road, just eat your way out of it.

Keep your fingers off other people's bonbons.

Flowers and champagne may set the stage, but it's chocolate that steals the show.

An ounce of truffles is worth a pound of anything.

Milk Chocolate. . . for all it's worth.

You never really know a person till you've shared a box of chocolates with them.

A kiss is just a kiss, but a chocolate kiss is bliss.

The best things in life are not fat free.

When all else fails, fudge it!

TODAY’S WORD

TODAY’S REFLECTION

The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the people of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind that are the people of the light.

Luke 16:8-9

I believe that Jesus is saying that we Christians can learn from the world's ways. If we rooted for our beliefs as enthusiastically as we root for a ball team, how much more effective we would be.

If we advertised Jesus' lessons by demonstrating them in our lives, we might be as effective as a billboard or a TV commercial. It's something to think about!

We are smart and enthusiastic about conducting business. If we were that smart and enthusiastic about the Lord, prayerful living would be more powerful living.

Jesus is asking us to consider whether we live for him or for the world. "No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other."

God takes care of his own.
