Good morning...
Today I spent a long tine working out with my plants. I have lots of succulents and every spring I have to prune then, In the simmer they grow a bit stalky, and by the spring they are like people with wild hair in need of a cut. That is where they have come.So I slaved all day helping them to look civilized. I will still have to work on them some more tomorrow. They look so beautiful when the work is done.
God spends lots of tine on us, how we develop, where we are planted, how healthy we are. When He is done we are beautiful in His eyes.
Have a swell Saturday. It is going to be in the 90's in my neck of the woods. Keep cool, or warm, or dry...whatever your weather requires.
God bless from,
Corinne
The devotional component of Saturday Writings was written by Carol Steficek. The title of her devotional is "Learning Experiences," She points out the fact that inventors did not consider glitches in their efforts to invent...they considered roadblocks an opportunity to work and succeed. Here is part of what Carol wrote, "I doubt many of us look at life that way. We tend to be hard on ourselves and think we have "failed" when we just need to learn from our experiences and go on from there. We all gain understanding only from experience."

"LEARNING EXPERIENCES"
One interesting fact which I have read about a number of great inventors, like
Salk and Edison, is that they did not consider their many trials on the way to
their successful inventions or discoveries to be "failures" but
rather "learning experiences."
God want us to be encouraged by what we learn. God doesn't expect us to
stay as we are. Neither does He expect perfection. He expects
perseverance. As humans we will never be perfect. We will all spend
our entire lives learning and growing. Look at all you do the way great
inventors did and the way God does. Life is a process of learning experiences
The Lord our God will say to us

I doubt many of us look at life that way. We tend to be hard on ourselves
and think we have "failed" when we just need to learn from our
experiences and go on from there. We all gain understanding only from
experience. There is no easy road to completing any task or job, and we do
not learn from osmosis. Life isn't that way.

Encouraging Christian Poems
"This Is The Time; This Is The Hour"
The Lord our God will say to us
To not limit what He can do,
For He is a God of the unlimited,
There's nothing He can’t do through you
For He is a God of the unlimited,
There's nothing He can’t do through you
For God is doing a new thing
In our lives, today, this hour
To raise us up to be His army,
Clothing us with His power
In our lives, today, this hour
To raise us up to be His army,
Clothing us with His power
Remember not the former things,
The things that are in the past
Behold, He is doing a new thing
And will capture human hearts
The things that are in the past
Behold, He is doing a new thing
And will capture human hearts
It's time now to go out and gather
In the harvest of the Lord,
For there are many whose souls are ready
More than we've known before
In the harvest of the Lord,
For there are many whose souls are ready
More than we've known before
So take His light into those places
Of darkness and misery,
That they may know the God of love
To give hope and a destiny
Of darkness and misery,
That they may know the God of love
To give hope and a destiny
Then they may shine right where they are
So others may come to the light
And they in turn may come to know
The saving grace of Christ
So others may come to the light
And they in turn may come to know
The saving grace of Christ
Then Jesus' light may radiate there
Like a beacon in the night,
No longer groping in the darkness,
But shining forth God's light
Like a beacon in the night,
No longer groping in the darkness,
But shining forth God's light
May the spirit of God arise in you
And empower you much more
So His glory may be seen with you
As you proclaim the risen Lord
And empower you much more
So His glory may be seen with you
As you proclaim the risen Lord

Quotes of Famous Christians
Past and Present
Stuart Briscoe
The spirit of Christmas needs to be superseded by the Spirit of Christ. The spirit of Christmas is annual; the Spirit of Christ is eternal. The spirit of Christmas is sentimental; the Spirit of Christ is supernatural. The spirit of Christmas is a human product; the Spirit of Christ is a divine person. That makes all the difference in the world.

If it weren't for the optimist, the pessimist would never know how happy he wasn't.
Samuel Adams
What the world requires of the Christians is that they should continue to be Christians.
Amy Carmichael
You can give without loving. But you cannot love without giving.
C S Lewis
Love is unselfishly choosing for another's highest good.
