What Really Matters?
Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Nov 19, 2014 (message contributor)
A young woman woke up early one day, she was so excited.
She said: THIS WILL BE A WONDERFUL DAY.
She looked in the mirror to discover she ONLY HAD THREE HAIRS ON HER HEAD.
She thought for a while and decided she would BRAID her hair.
She thought her BRAID WITH THE Three HAIRS was so pretty. SHE HAD A WONDERFUL DAY.
The next day the young lady awoke and said: THIS WILL BE A WONDERFUL DAY.
She looked in the mirror to discover she had ONLY TWO HAIRS. She pondered awhile,
and decided she would PART HER HAIR DOWN THE MIDDLE. So she fixed her hair
real pretty by PARTING IT DOWN THE MIDDLE. The Lord blessed her with a another
wonderful day.
The next morning the lady was awakened to the sun shining so pretty. She thought
within herself this is GOING TO BE A WONDERFUL DAY. She looked in the mirror and
she ONLY HAD ONE HAIR LEFT on her head. She gave thought to what hair-do she would
wear today? She decided to put her hair up in A PONY TAIL. She had a very wonderful
day.
The next day, she woke up, she jumped out of bed and said:
THIS IS GOING TO BE A WONDERFUL DAY! The Lord made this day and I will rejoice.
She went over to the mirror and to her surprise she had NO HAIR on her head.
She stood and looked at herself and said: PRAISE THE LORD, I DO NOT HAVE TO WORRY
ABOUT WHAT I AM GOING TO DO WITH MY HAIR TODAY.
And she had a wonderful day with no worries about her hair.

Get Out Of Your Feelings
Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Oct 29, 2018
Emotional people make big mistakes when they base decisions on how they feel rather than obeying God and what they know is the right thing to do. We have to learn how to live beyond our feelings and do what is right even when we feel we have been wronged.
