3000 thoughts per day

Man has 3,000 thoughts per day. Buick.

If you must think, be aware...make each thought worthwhile.

True Purpose of religion

The purpose of all the major religious traditions is not to construct big temples on the outside, but to create temples of goodness and compassion inside, in our hearts."

Moore's Law

Moore's Law, named after the Intel co-founder Gordon Moore, who in 1965 predicted that the density of transistors on integrated circuits would double every 18 months or so. Physics, along with ingenuity and investment, made that forecast of performance-doubling every year and a half accurate so far.

Meditate on the Goodness of God today

Handpicked by God

TODAY'S SCRIPTURE

"[In His love] He chose us [actually picked us out for Himself as His own] in Christ, before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy..."
(Ephesians 1:4 AMP)

TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria

Before you were ever born, before the very foundation of the earth, God knew you, planned for you and chose you! He approved you and called you His own. You may have been overlooked by people in your life; maybe you were passed up for a job or overlooked by someone whose opinion you valued. But remember, God won't ever overlook you! In fact, He handpicked you. He chose you to be holy, or set apart, for Himself.
Meditate on this truth today: You are God's most valued possession. You are special. You are the apple of His eye. He knows everything about you; He even knows the number of hairs you have on your head. He has given you the gifts and abilities that you have for a purpose. You carry great value and significance. Don't ever lose sight of the treasure He's placed within you.
Remember, you are handpicked by God. Meditate on His goodness today knowing that nothing can change His love for you!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Heavenly Father, thank You for loving me today. Help me to understand Your love so that I can extend that love to those around me. Let me see others as valuable the way You see me. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
— Joel & Victoria Osteen

Take captive every thought

"...take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ"
(2 Corinthians 10:5, NIV)

TODAY'S WORD 

Everyone has days when they feel like life is out of control. This usually happens when we allow our circumstances to dictate our thoughts and attitudes. You might say, "Well, Joel, the economy is wreaking havoc on my business." Or "This relationship is just too far gone." But I say, today is the day to take your life back! You can take your life back by choosing to take your thoughts back. Even though we live in this natural realm, as believers, we are not limited by this natural realm. We can tap into God's power by making every thought line up with the Word of God. Don't allow your circumstances to control you; instead, meditate on His Word and let His truth set you free!
Today, as you take captive every thought and boldly declare His promises over your life, you are setting yourself up for victory. You are positioning yourself to partake of His blessing. You are taking your life back, and you will live the destiny He has prepared for you!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Heavenly Father, thank You for empowering me to live in victory today. I choose to take my life back by taking captive every thought and submitting it to You. Help me live a life that is pleasing to You, Jesus, today and every day. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
— Joel & Victoria Osteen
 


True compassion does not change

A truly compassionate attitude toward others does not change even if they behave negatively or hurt you."
