For the first time in 17 days – here it is !
‘Don’t be hasty, prosperity will soon knock on your door.’
I actually thought about ordering a pizza from Domino’s earlier this afternoon (shortly after I returned home from work). I decided against it once I remembered that I ate Chinese Food for Lunch (at Panda Express). There will be no knocks on my door tonight (and hopefully all weekend long). I have relaxing to do this weekend.
BOTH of these fortune cookie messages totally apply to me. As far as the great fortune and the new lease on Life is concerned – YES – I can truthfully sit here tonight and emphatically state that I have been enjoying God’s plentiful fruits of great fortune ever since my previous life died. All bad things must come to an end, and so it did. He saved me, and I was reborn again to begin a brand new Life on His fantastic journey. I think that the second fortune cookie message is the result of this vibrant new Life. For the past 22 months I have finally had real purpose in my Life. I am Fully Alive. I have finally made a positive name for myself after being a lifeless mannequin for the first 39 years on God’s Great Earth.
This is one of my favourite verses in the Good News:
1 Peter 1:23 (NLT) – For you have been born again. Your new Life did not come from your earthly parents because the life they gave you will end in death. But this new Life will last forever because it comes from the eternal, living word of God.
‘The night life is for you.’
NO – Not even ! As if !
I’m a morning person, and I’ve always been a morning person ever since I was a little kid. No matter what day of the week it is – if it’s 6 AM and I’m still sleeping – then I’ve overslept. I’d be wasting daylight rather than chasing it. That’s not a good thing !
10 PM is typically bedtime for me; hence, no night life for me.
Keep it simple. The more you say, the less people remember.’
Agreed.
