Seven-Ups
Dear
Friends,
It's
time to take another marble out of the container.
HAVE
A GREAT WEEKEND AND MAY ALL SATURDAYS BE SPECIAL!
Don
P. S. Have a Seven-Up on me!!!
SEVEN-UPS
1. Wake Up -Decide to have a good
day.
"Today is the day the Lord hath made; let us rejoice and be
glad in it." Psalms 118:24
2. Dress Up -Smile
The best way to dress up is to put on a smile. A smile is an inexpensive
way to improve your looks. "The Lord does not look at the things man
looks at. Man looks at outward appearance but the Lord looks at the heart."
I Sam 16:7
3. Shut Up -Say nice things & learn to listen.
God gave us 2 ears and 1 mouth so He must have meant for us to do twice as much
listening as talking. "He who guards his lips guards his soul."
Proverbs 13:3 "Gossip betrays confidence avoid men who talk too much." Proverbs
20:19 "Listen to advice, accept instruction and in the end, you will
be wise." Proverbs 19:20
4. Stand Up -For what you believe in.
Stand for something or you will fall for anything. "Let us not be weary in
doing good; for at the proper time, we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
Therefore, as we have
opportunity, let us do good..." Galatians 6:9-10
5. Look Up -To the Lord.
"I can do everything through Him who gives me strength."
- Philippians 4:13
6. Reach Up -For something higher.
As Jiminy Cricket sings in "High Hopes" Always try
to better yourself.
7. Lift Up -Your Prayers.
"Do not worry about anything; instead PRAY ABOUT EVERYTHING" -
Philippians 4:6
