WONDERFUL DAY, PICK THREE

I have a plummet, or plumb bob in my hand. (Lowe’s has real cheap.)
TEXT:
2 Timothy 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
DID YOU KNOW AN UNTHANKFUL PERSON IS MORE DANGERS THAN A POISONOUS SNAKE?
THE TONGUE AND ANGRY, UNTHANKFUL PERSON IS MORE DANGEROUS THAN THE SHARPEST FANG ANY POISON SNAKE HAS TO OFFER?
I ONCE READ A STORY THAT SATAN WAS GIVING A GROUP OF YOUNG DEMONS A TOUR OF HIS FARM WHERE HE GREW HIS CROPS FOR SEEDS. AFTER HE REAP HIS SEEDS THAT HE WOULD USE AGAINST THE HUMAN RACE, HE WOULD PUT THE SEEDS IN A HUGE BARN NEAR THE CENTER OF HIS FARM. HE KEPT HIS BEST SEEDS TO KILL, STEAL AND DESTROY THE CHURCH AND CHRISTIAN IN THIS BEAUTIFUL BARN.
THERE WAS A HUGH BIN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BARN THAT HAD TON AFTER TON OF ONE CERTAIN KIND OF SEEDS. One of the young demons questioned the devil. WHAT ARE THESE SEEDS?
The devil turned to the demon and said: THE FIRST BEEN IS ANGRY AND BITTERNESS SEEDS. YOU SHOULD KNOW, THESE OTHER SEEDS ARE UNTHANKFULNESS AND DEPRESSION. Where you find one growing, you will find ALL THREE thriving in the darkness. ANGER, BITTERNESS, UNTHANKFULNESS and DEPRESSION grow together and the two together COULD GROW IN ALMOST ANY SOIL OF DARKNESS.
SO ANOOTHER DEMON STEPPED FORWARD TO ASK A HARD QUESTION OF HIS BOSS. Sir, as we plant these seeds is there any place where they will not grow?
The devil bowed his head and answered the question: YES, YOUNG DEMON THERE IS ONE PLACE THAT NO MATTER HOW WE WORK THE SOIL THE SEEDS WILL NOT GROW. A tear streamed down the mean devil’s face as he replied: We can seem to never get HATE, UNFORGIVENESS, ANGER, BITTERNESS AND DEPRESSION TO GROW IN THE FERTILE FIELD OF A LOVING, FORGIVING, FAITHFUL TO CHURCH, BIBLE READING AND MOST OF ALL IN THE HEART OF JOYFUL AND THANKFUL PEOPLE.
IF JOYFULNESS AND THANKSGIVING ARE FOUND IN THE HEART OF A PERSON SEEMS OUR SEEDS OF EVIL WILL ALWAYS DIE.
WONDERFUL DAYS OF JOY AND THANKS ARE A CHOICE NOT AN ACCIDENT?
Did you know THANKSGIVING is mentioned 138 times in the Bible?
And THANKS IS MENTIONED MORE THAN THAT.
Psalm 118:24 This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
THERE WAS A LADY THAT HAD BEEN SO WEAK AND SICK FROM CANCER AND CHEMO AND RADIATION. SHE DECIDED TO MAKE WISE CHOICES WITH WHAT EVER TIME SHE HAD LEFT.
There was a lady, she woke up & said: THIS IS GOING TO BE A WONDERFUL DAY.
She looked in the mirror, she had 3 hair on her head. She decided to braid her hair. She had a wonderful day.
The next morning she was excited when she got up & said: THIS IS GOING TO BE A WONDERFUL DAY.
She looked in the mirror to find she only had 2 hairs on her head. So she decided to part her hair down the middle. She had a wonderful day.
The 3rd day she awoke and said: THIS IS GOING TO BE A WONDERFUL DAY. The mirror revealed one hair that morning, she decided to wear a pony tail, and she had a wonderful day. The next morning she jumped out of bed and said: WOW, THIS IS A WONDERFUL DAY.
The mirror showed her she had no hair at all. She was so excited, she said: I will not have to fool with my hair today. She had a wonderful day.
This is the day the Lord has made, and I will rejoice and be glad in it. This is a wonderful day, it is all about your attitude approach. Will you make this a wonderful day? The choice is yours... (Bruce Ball)
IN BIBLICAL TIMES THERE WAS A TOOL THAT WAS USED WHEN YOU STARTED TO BUILD…
A PLUMMET IN THE MASTER’S HAND IS THE START OF A FULFILLED LIFE.
Zechariah 4:10 For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth.
PLUMMET, OR PLUMB BOB IS A SMALL, HEAVY OBJECT THAT HANGS FROM A STRING TO HANG STRAIGHT TO SEE IF SOMETHING IS DETERMINED TO BE VERTICAL. POINTING TO A POINT OF CENTER.
