On the Wing

 

Intelligence without ambition

is like a bird without wings

C Archie Danielson

Knowing is good

Knowing what you want to do

with that knowledge

is good!

But neither of those things

Will get you anywhere

If you do not get moving

Brethren, I do not regard myself as having laid hold of it yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, - See more at: http://bible.knowing-jesus.com/topics/Moving-Forward#sthash.MCc5COBm.dpuf

Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. 

Are you not of more value than they? 

Matthew 6:26

What is Yours to Give

In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.

 

Khalil Gibran

 

 

There is no delight in owning anything

unshared

Share...one of the first lessons we teach our children

Share the love

Share the wisdom

Share the memories

Share the ideas

 Share the day

Share the night

Lindsay Wagner said:

 It's about sharing. 

You just give what you have to give wherever you go, 

and you let God handle the rest.

Sharing....

Everyone is doing it.....

so go...share

you have so much to give!

Remember this--a farmer who plants only a few seeds will get a small crop.

 But the one who plants generously will get a generous crop.

2 Corinthians 9:6

It Had Done Me Good

 

It had done me good to be somewhat parched by heat 

and drenched by the rain of life

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

 

 

The moments of greatest struggle

The hours of deepest darkness

The times when we are called upon to be greater than

To be stronger than

To be braver than

we believe we are

That is when we find out

Who we really are

and that is poetiquejustis

I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.

Philippians 4:12

Spinning out ot Control

 

Let the great world spin forever

down the ringing grooves of change

Tennyson

When did a lie become glorified as a"spin"?

Where were we when people started being hired

Promoted

Applauded 

For turning the truth 

in to a lie?

Anyone can put a spin on things

anyone

 

But it is only the brave 

who speak the truth

and then clean up the mess

left behind by the "spin"

and that's poetiquejustis

The LORD detests lying lips, 

but He delights in people who are trustworthy.

Proverbs 12:22

With Great Abandon

 

There can be no greatness without abandonment

Ralph Waldo Emerson

 Lose yourself in what you are doing today

Let it take you away

 Wade right in

Dive right in!

 Be absorbed

Be fully engaged

Emerson also said: "A man is what he thinks about all day long"

So today, think about what you are doing

And that's poetiquejustis

Present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God

Romans 12:1

Artfully Done

 

The essence of all beautiful art, all great art, is gratitude

Nietzsche

You are the artist of your day

Be grateful

Your will paint your world in hues of rose and sunshine

Or streak your sky with grey

You have a choice

Be grateful

You can mold the day in to a thing of beauty

sketch your hours

Life is art, you are the artist

be grateful!

and that's poetiquejustis

And whatever you do, in word or deed, 
do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, 

giving thanks to God the Father through him. 

Colossians 3:17

Companionable

 

No road is long with good company

Turkish Proverb

Your thoughts

A book

A four footed friend

Your memories

Your hopes

These are all good companions on the road of life

 

So put it down

and take a walk

and that's poetiquejustis

"Arise, walk about the land through its length and breadth; for I will give it to you"

Genesis 13:17
