ENTHUSIASM IS CONTAGIOUS

̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶ o O o ̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶

“Happy the people to whom such blessings fall! Happy the people whose God is the Lord!”
Psalms 144:15

Do you have days where blessings seem to fall all around you? I call this being “in the zone.”

More often than not – it is caused by your enthusiasm.

When you are filled with enthusiasm, does everything seem to go right?

Have you ever been in the midst of a group of enthusiastic people and found yourself, regardless of your frame of mind, being caught up in the excitement and enthusiasm all around you? This is a normal reaction, for enthusiasm is contagious.

It is natural for you to be happy, for within you is the joy of the Lord. When you let it, this joy spills over to bless you with new zest and zeal for life and living.

Zest and zeal manifest as enthusiasm. I pray with you, today, that every area of your life is blessed, and that you are God empowered to meet it with an exuberant spirit and happy expectancy.

I am an enthusiastic person, but I also admit that I was not naturally born with it.

I work at it.

You must work at it, too.

Every day, I do, what I call “generating up.”

I turn up the rheostat to let more energy radiate from me.

You can do this, also, and when you do, you will find that you are a magnet drawing more good experiences to you.

Work on becoming 10 times more enthusiastic – do it now! Today can be a day to generate a spirit of enthusiasm, a day to pass it along to others, also. Remembering that the joy of the Lord is within you, remembering that you have Divine aid in every need is reason enough for enthusiasm, and reason enough for you to share your enthusiasm with others.

There was once a woman by the name of Mary; she was a very lonely person. She worked on turning up the rheostat of her enthusiasm, and she found that it magically drew friends to her, and, in time, the man of her dreams. Too many people spend too many hours living in a cynical, dull way. These people think that they have seen it all, and believe that there is nothing to get excited about, anymore. Nothing could be more untrue. Every day is a new adventure and a new opportunity to view things new.

Do not allow yourself to live a mediocre day, ask God’s help to help you become 10 times more enthusiastic about your day.

The Bible talks about becoming a little child again. What does this mean? It means to view life with eyes of wow and wonder – to live every day in excitement, and to remember to play. It means to know that we do not know it all, and in fact, know very little. It means to be teachable about the way to live and to know that there are discoveries, yet unmade. So, today, I pray that you are enthusiastic about your life, and that you show it to others and help them to remember to be enthusiastic about their life.

As you become enthusiastic about your life, God will show you even more reasons why you should be even more enthusiastic. The best is yet to be!

__________________________________________

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, this moment I pray that You will help me become 10 times more enthusiastic about my life, my work, my relationships.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

Tuesday Prayer and Meditation

“A new heart I will give you, a new spirit I will put within you … And cause you to walk in my way.”
Ezekiel 36:26,27

This is the dawn of a new day in your spiritual life.

Like birds that sing to celebrate the break of day, we sing a song of praise as we celebrate this new dawn in spiritual consciousness. Our song is one of peace, prosperity, and love. It is a song of harmony, as we unite our hearts in this time of prayer.

Rest in the silence of prayer …

In Your loving presence, God, every moment is a new beginning. I am filled with Your life and Your love. Before each new dawn, the earth is peaceful and calm.

As I begin my prayer time, I, too, am peaceful and calm.

This is my quiet time. It is a time to regenerate and reflect. It is my time to relax and to peacefully and joyously experience the dawn of a new day in spirit, a new day in faith.

I take a deep breath and I release. I relax, aware of God’s sacred presence. I am peaceful, relaxed, and confident. I gently release the questions of my heart, trusting the answers I seek to be there. For God is there. God, You are the true light. I have faith in You, God, to gently guide me and those I care about.

Rest in the silence of prayer …

Right now, in prayer, I experience a new dawn, a greater understanding of my spirituality and myself. With this understanding comes a more attuned consciousness, a heightened spirituality, and a greater realization of Your direction in my life, dear God.

There is a new awakening in my mind and my body to the powerful, healing light of God. I acknowledge God’s healing presence and I look forward to the dawning of greater energy, strength, and vitality. The healing light of God is working in every area of my body temple, strengthening the tissues and the organs, and renewing and restoring each one.

I ask you to relax in this experience of the healing power of God.

Rest in the silence of prayer …

As we bring this sacred time to a close, I pray we are beginning to experience a new dawn and a new awareness in our spirituality. As the day dawns, once again in each of our hearts, we celebrate the light that fills us and fills our world.

God’s complete and perfect illumination surrounds each of us; the umbrella of God’s pure love covers us; God’s power protects us and leads us from harm; the presence of God watches over us, every moment of the day and the night. We are in God, and God is in us – And ALL is well!

In the name, and through the power, of Jesus Christ, we pray … Amen.

Positive Daily Inspiration – June 12, 2023 – Make a Brand-New Ending

Positive Daily Inspiration - June 12, 2023
Make a Brand-New Ending

a gift from www.PositiveChristianity.org
̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶ o O o ̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶

Make a Brand-New Ending

” … One thing I do, forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Let those of us who are mature be thus minded, God will reveal that also to you.”
Philippians 3: 13-15

The 92-year-old, petite, well-poised and proud lady, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o’clock, with her hair fashionably coifed and makeup perfectly applied, even though she is legally blind, moved to a nursing home today. Her husband of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary. After many hours of waiting patiently in the lobby of the nursing home, she smiled sweetly when told her room was ready. As she maneuvered her walker to the elevator, I provided a visual description of her tiny room, including the eyelet sheets that had been hung on her window. “I love it,” she stated with the enthusiasm of an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new puppy.

“Mrs. Jones, you haven’t seen the room … just wait.”

“That doesn’t have anything to do with it,” she replied. “Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn’t depend on how the furniture is arranged … it’s how I arrange my mind. I already decided to love it … “It’s a decision I make every morning when I wake up. I have a choice; I can spend the day in bed recounting the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work, or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do. Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open, I’ll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I’ve stored away. Just for this time in my life, old age is like a bank account … you withdraw from what you’ve put in. So, my advice to you would be to deposit a lot of happiness in the bank account of memories.

“Thank you for your part in filling my Memory bank. I am still depositing.”

Remember the five simple rules to be happy:
1. Free your heart from hatred.
2. Free your mind from worries.
3. Live simply.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less.

No one can go back and make a brand new start. Anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.

Neville the great spiritual writer said, “See from the end.” How is your life going to end? Will there be a happy ending? There can be, there will be.

At Positive Christianity, we often say, “We are going for OUR GOOD.”

“Going for good” is the attitude with which we meet experiences.

Thinking about this phrase, “for good,” we realize that we often use this with a negative connotation. Have you ever said, or heard someone say about another, “I’m through with him, for good!”

Like Jacob, wrestling with the angel, we may not be able to let go the hurt feelings, the bitterness, and the unforgiveness we feel that prompted the desire to walk away. You remember what Jacob said to the angel, “I will not let you go, unless you bless me.” So, if you’re ever tempted to think or say about someone or something, “I am through with you, for good,” say it in the attitude of Jacob. You are through with unhappy feelings, unforgiving thoughts, and bitter memories. You are through with these – “for good.”

Time after time, events that you thought were horrible experiences at the time, turned out to be wonderful blessings in your life. I have counseled with many

people that have been through a divorce that they didn’t want. They wrestled with the unpredicted change. And yet, years later, looking back on their lives, they can now pronounce it as a blessing.

I have counseled with many men and women who lost their jobs. But looking back from where they are now, they thank God that they were able to move, or to be pushed, into their new line of work. Sometimes, the greatest blessings in our lives do not appear that way at first.

We want to be freed to enter into a new way of life, a new thought about ourselves, a new realization of the spiritual self of us that is all conquering, triumphant, and free. We bless the unhappy situation; we cease wrestling with the angel; and pronounce it good. “I am through with that — for good!” It gives it added power to our declaration of freedom from limiting habits of thinking and living, when we also emphasize “for good.” We want to be freed “for good” from old and limiting ways. Making this positive declaration gives us purpose and direction. We leave old ways behind; we press forward to the new and the good.

In little ways that may seem unimportant, we put off our good; we put off our enjoyment of life. Not long ago, I complimented a woman on her appearance and she said, “Well, I’ve been saving this dress to keep it until I needed it for a good “time,” but I decided I should wear it. We have all known persons who saved everything “for good.” The lovely clothes hung in the closet; the nice dishes or silverware were never used; the front living room stood dusted and unused. The best things in our lives were carefully stored away “for good.”

If we keep putting off our enjoyment of the present, if we save everything for some mythical good “time,” we lose a great deal of our lives to non-enjoyment in living.

In our approach to life and living, we do not think that some future time will be the time when we will be happy. We do not put off our good by thinking that, WHEN some conditions are perfect, ONLY THEN, will we give ourselves permission to enjoy life. Now, today, this moment, is the time to open up new vistas, to enjoy new experiences in living, to widen the expanse of our thought and interest, with God’s perfect help.

When Joseph, who had been cruelly and unjustly treated by his brothers, had the perfect opportunity for revenge and retaliation, his words to them were, “You meant evil against me, but God meant it for good.”

“God meant it for good.” This is something to remember when you find it hard to see the good in some situation. The good is there, though it is not apparent at this time. Despite appearances, God means it for good, and God and good will always be victorious.

A positive affirmative prayer to say aloud: “All things are working together for my good, and I am working with them in the wisdom and the power of God. I go now to meet my good.”

This, of course, is based on the beautiful passage in our Bible, “In everything God works for good with those who love him.”

You ARE going – “for good!” You can be sure that when you take on this kind of attitude, when you go for good, when you expect to meet your good, you put yourself in tune with that which is for your highest good and happiness, instead of the reverse.

In any change that you are making in life, in any human relationship that you’re trying to resolve, in any desire for greater enjoyment in life that is taking you away from lack and limitation, remember to add the phrase “for good.” Ask yourself some questions. Is God with me? Yes! Does God mean it for good? Yes!

God can Divinely adjust any situation – “for good.” You will prove this in your life, over and over again, as you walk your life’s path with God. All things do work together – for good

“He the dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, God is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in God will I trust.”
Psalms 91:1, 2

Idle thoughts of a wandering mind …

… I planted some bird seed. A bird came up. Now I don’t know what to feed it.

… I had amnesia once – or twice.

… Protons have mass? I didn’t even know they were Catholic.

… All I ask is a chance to prove that money can’t make me happy.

… What is a “free” gift? Aren’t all gifts free?

… They told me I was gullible … and I believed them.

… Experience is the thing you have left when everything else is gone.

… One nice thing about egotists: they don’t talk about other people.

… My weight is perfect for my height – which varies.

… I used to be indecisive. Now I’m not sure.

… The cost of living hasn’t affected its popularity.

… How can there be self-help “groups”?

… Show me a man with both feet firmly on the ground, and I’ll show you a man who can’t get his pants off.

… Is it my imagination, or do Buffalo wings taste like chicken?

A wealthy old lady decides to go on a photo safari in Africa, taking her faithful aged poodle named Cuddles, along for the company.

One day the poodle starts chasing butterflies and before long, Cuddles discovers that he’s lost. Wandering about, he notices a leopard heading rapidly in his direction with the intention of having lunch.

The old poodle thinks, “Oh, oh! I’m in deep doo-doo now!” Noticing some bones on the ground close by, he immediately settles down to chew on the bones with his back to the approaching cat. Just as the leopard is about to leap the old poodle exclaims loudly, “Boy, that was one delicious leopard! I wonder if there are any more around here.”

Hearing this, the young leopard halts his attack in mid-strike, a look of terror comes over him and he slinks away into the trees. “Whew!” says the leopard, “That was close! That old poodle nearly had me!”

Meanwhile, a monkey who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for protection from the leopard. So off he goes, but the old poodle sees him heading after the leopard with great speed, and figures that something must be up. The monkey soon catches up with the leopard, spills the beans and strikes a deal for himself with the leopard.

The young leopard is furious at being made a fool of and says, “Here, monkey, hop on my back and see what’s going to happen to that conniving canine!

Now, the old poodle sees the leopard coming with the monkey on his back and thinks, “What am I going to do now?”, but instead of running, the dog sits down with his back to his attackers, pretending he hasn’t seen them yet, and just when they get close enough to hear, the old poodle says, “Where’s that lazy monkey? I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another leopard!”

“Consider the lilies of the field … “
Matthew 6:28

PARABLE OF THE PENCIL

The Pencil Maker took the pencil aside, just before putting him into the box. “There are 5 things you need to know,” he told the pencil, “before I send you out into the world, always remember them and never forget, and you will become the best pencil you can be.”

One: You will be able to do many great things, but only if you allow yourself to be held in someone’s hand.

Two: You will experience a painful sharpening from time to time, but you’ll need it to become a better pencil.

Three: You will be able to correct mistakes you will make.

Four: The most important part of you will always be what’s inside.

And Five: On every surface you are used on, you must leave your mark. No matter what the condition, you must continue to write.”

The pencil understood and promised to remember, and went into the box with purpose in its heart.

Now put yourself in the place of the pencil; always remember positive points, and you will become the best person you can be.

One: You will be able to do many great things, but only if you allow yourself to be held in God’s hand. And allow other human beings to access you for the many gifts you possess.

Two: You will experience a painful sharpening from time to time, by going through various problems, but you’ll need it to become a stronger person.

Three: You will be able to correct mistakes you might make or grow through them.

Four: The most important part of you will always be what’s on the inside.

And Five: On every surface you walk, you must leave your mark. No matter what the situation, you must continue to serve God in everything.

By understanding and remembering, let us proceed with our life on this earth having a meaningful purpose in our heart and a relationship with God daily.

NOTHING IS STRONGER THAN THE LOVE OF GOD

a gift from www.PositiveChristianity.org
̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶ o O o ̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶

“Clear thou me from hidden faults.” Psalms 19:12

Nothing is stronger than the love of God. When you rely on God’s love, the conditions in your life become harmonious, orderly, and right. God’s love is powerful to bless you, right where you are, in the situations you are facing. God’s love finds expression through you, transmuting your faults, as patience, love, understanding, and forgiveness take over.

God’s changeless love, moving through you, cannot fail. When there is temptation to find fault, in yourself and others, you turn, in that moment, to the power of God’s love surrounding you, and coming through you. You ask for God’s love to take over, and your upset feelings vanish. You ask for God’s wisdom to keep you firm and strong, to guide you in all that you say and do. God’s love is THE source of tremendous strength.

God’s love always promotes peace. God’s love is always kind. God’s love is always patient and tactful. God’s love is always forgiving and compassionate. God’s love is the love power that works through you, to correct every wrong. By believing in the power of God’s changeless love at work in your life, all is made well within you.

If you complain, even to yourself, and feel critical and find fault, no one needs to tell you that you should change the direction of your thoughts and feelings. You do not like the way you feel, but sometimes you do not know how to cope with such feelings. One good way is to think of something for which to be thankful.

Critical people tend to be noisy people. Mark Twain once said, “Noise proves nothing. Often a hen who has merely laid an egg cackles as if she has laid an asteroid.”

The person we may feel critical of has some good points; something about him or her deserves our praise. Let us look for the good and praise it with the eyes and voice of God’s love. As we do this, we will not be able to stay in a critical and faultfinding state of mind. The other person may never know how we thought about him or her. They may not be aware of either our feelings of criticism, or of praise, but we are aware of the change in our inner thoughts and feelings. God’s love has won another victory. How we think and how we feel makes a great deal of difference to us and affects our relationships with others — even without us saying a word.

We find it easier to get along, happily and peacefully, with others, as we practice the presence of God’s love, by praising the good in others and by praising God’s good in our lives. God’s love will transform you and clear away hidden faults that you may not even be aware of.

Let us begin this day with a prayer of thanks to God, and let us carry this feeling of thankfulness with us, all through the day, as we let our light shine as God’s love in human action.

“Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be humans of courage; be strong.
1 Corinthians 16:13

As I faced my God in Heaven, I knelt before the Lord along with all the other souls.

Before each of us lay our lives like the squares of a quilt in many piles. An Angel sat before each of us sewing our quilt squares together into a tapestry that is our life.

But as my angel took each piece of cloth off the pile, I noticed how ragged and empty each square was. They were filled with giant holes. Each square was labeled with a part of my life that had been difficult, the challenges and temptations

I was faced with in everyday life. I saw hardships that I endured, which were the largest holes of all. I glanced around me. Nobody else had such squares. Other than a tiny hole here and there, the other tapestries were filled with rich color and the right hues of worldly fortune. I gazed upon my own life and was disheartened. My angel was sewing the ragged pieces of cloth together, threadbare and empty, like binding air. Finally the time came when each life was to be displayed, held up to the light, the scrutiny of truth.

The others rose, each in turn, holding up their tapestries. So filled their lives had been.

My angel looked upon me, and nodded for me to rise. My gaze dropped to the round in shame. I hadn’t had all the earthly fortunes. I had love in my life, and laughter. But there had also been trials of illness, and death, and false accusations that took from me my world, as I knew it.

I had to start over many times. I often struggled with the temptation to quit, only to somehow muster the strength to pick up and begin again.

I spent many nights on my knees in prayer, asking for help and guidance in my life. I had often been held up to ridicule, which I endured painfully, each time offering it up to God in hopes that I would not melt within my skin beneath the judgmental gaze of those who unfairly judged me. And now, I had to face the truth.

My life was what it was, and I had to accept it for what it was. I rise and slowly lifted the combined squares of my life to the light. An awe-filled gasp filled the air. I gazed around at the others who stared at me with wide eyes. Then, I looked upon the tapestry before me. Light flooded the many holes, creating an image, the face of Christ.

Then our Lord stood before me, with warmth and love in God’s eyes. God said, very time you gave over your life to Me, it became My life, My hardships, and My struggles. Each point of light in your life is when you stepped aside and let Me shine through, until there was more of Me than there was of you.” May all our quilts be threadbare and worn, allowing Christ to shine through.

Positive Daily Inspiration - June 7, 2023
Progress in Your Life

a gift from www.PositiveChristianity.org

̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶ o O o

“There is no other god besides me, a righteous God and a Savior.”
Isaiah 45:21

God, as love, has always existed; and God’s law of love has been in operation from the beginning of time.

Humankind has been progressing, by degrees, to a higher realization of God as a loving Parent. The Old Testament is a history of human’s steady growth in this respect. Where once the Law of Moses (an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth) was necessary to control the conduct of human beings, humans are now coming to the realization that the law of love is greater.

“For the law was given through Moses; Grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.” John 1:17

Justice is the loving method God uses to move humans from imperfect concepts to an awareness of perfection. The love of God, and the grace of God are available to every human and every instance involving justice. We only need to realize it and claim it. Love and forgiveness are the higher law.

You give thanks for the freeing realization that God’s law of love and justice is at work in your life, freeing you from all belief in injustice and victim-hood in all areas of your life.

“The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love.” 1 John 4:8

Love doesn’t make the world go round. Love is what makes the ride worthwhile. Franklin P. Jones

If, for the moment, your life seems dark, dreary, or cold, you can be love-filled, despite appearances. You can be certain that there will be a spiritual experience of God’s love. The warmth of God’s love will renew your personal world. You can be faith-filled concerning God’s love, meant for you. Life will once again be bright, colorful, exciting, and you will be assured of new positive growth. Even when there is nothing left but God, that is when you find out – God is all you need!

In Mark 4:40 Scripture says, “Why are you afraid? Have you no faith?”

Positive Christianity has people around the world that are praying for an infilling of love and faith. You are praying, we are praying, they are praying – knowing this gives us a feeling that we are holding hands in love with all humanity.

Ask yourself as you read this Positive Daily Inspiration:

“What is the need of my life?”

Is it order, harmony, justice, love, good relationships, joy, wisdom, guidance, health, prosperity, strength, comfort, better job, freedom, or peace?” Whatever your need, great or small, you place it, lovingly in the hands of God, for in God, you trust. You trust in God and your feelings are attuned to that trust. You trust in God and the thoughts of your mind, your word, and your loving actions give evidence to it. A new order is established in your life and your world, because you have a growing ability to trust God in everything in your life. You are filled with a new awareness of God’s love.

__________________________________________

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, I pray that I fully know Your love.
I pray that I feel love every day.
I pray that I express Your love through my actions and my every word.
I pray that I am able to give, and receive love.
I pray that my world is made in the image and likeness of You, a heaven on earth, filled with love.
I pray that nothing in my past, no hurt, no memory, keeps me from fully receiving, and expressing Your love.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION:
Through God’s love, I am blessed with an unlimited love that can never be depleted. Love overflows in every area, to every person in my life.

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE:
“If you have it [Love], you don’t need to have anything else, and if you don’t have it, it doesn’t matter much what else you have.”
Sir James M. Barrie

Positive Daily Inspiration – June 5, 2023 – YOU WERE CREATED BY GOD FOR GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENT

Positive Daily Inspiration - June 5, 2023
YOU WERE CREATED BY GOD FOR GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENT

a gift from www.PositiveChristianity.org

̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶ o O o

YOU WERE CREATED BY GOD FOR GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENT

“A desire fulfilled is sweet to the soul.” Proverbs 13:19

You have heard of people that are good starters, but poor finishers. You have known persons who started all kinds of projects with enthusiasm, but soon lost interest and turned to something else.

A child of God is meant for and God-equipped for accomplishment. Each of us is geared for attainment. As you pray for wisdom and direction in using your talents and abilities, you will be led to give your time in worthwhile and satisfying ways. You will be led by God to give your interest and attention to worthwhile and satisfying endeavors.

As you pray for consecration to your purpose, you will be led to take the steps, one at a time, that will lead to perfect fulfillment.

God will work with you. You will work as a team, and with God working in you, and through you, you will become a good finisher of all projects. You will also have the courage to be a good starter. You enter into life, this Friday, with enthusiasm, but you also want to have patience and endurance to stay the course to meet your goals, and experience the joy of accomplishment. If you find yourself questioning your purpose and needs, you have swift access to God’s light, empowerment, and love.

A good accomplisher turns to God, often, in prayer. Prayer will work to recharge you and motivate you. Prayer will reveal your way to you and will lead you in the adventure of the direction of your highest good.

You have often heard it said, “As within so without.” An accomplishment begins with your thinking of it as easy to accomplish, and in fact, already accomplished. Jesus knew what he was saying when he said, “When you pray, believe you have already received.” You must watch your thoughts, and if you find them slipping into negative grooves, such as self-doubt, inferiority feelings, or fear, you can quickly establish control over them by centering yourself in prayer.

God believes in you – more than you believe in yourself!

God knows what you can do because God created you to do it. When your thoughts are established in God Truth, your actions will naturally follow in this success path. You will move forward with the conviction that you are going forth to accomplish good purposes.

Procrastination and self-stoppage is a learned, human habit that, overtime, defines who you are, to your own self-image of yourself. Accomplishment after accomplishment re-creates you in the image and likeness of God, your creator. With every accomplishment, you will believe in yourself more.

There is nothing–NOTHING– that God cannot do through you! You are meant for accomplishment!

__________________________________________

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:
Dear God, today I dust off my dreams and I ask You to come through my thinking the show me that together all can be accomplished.
This weekend I pray that you will infill me with self-confidence, self worth, and meaningful purpose for my life so that I may start fresh Monday morning, with a new outlook, a new vision, and profound hope.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION:
My future good is ever expanding and constant. God is my never failing source of continuous good.

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE:
“The question is not what you look at, but what you see.”
Henry David Thoreau

SUNDAY FUNNIES

̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶ o O o ̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶̶
(Submitted with our great thanks)

“This day shall be a day of remembrance for you. You shall celebrate it as a festival to the Lord.” Exodus 12:14

OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF BABES:

If I sold my house and my car, had a big garage sale and gave all my money to the church, would that get me into Heaven?” I asked the children in my Sunday School class.

“NO!” the children all answered.

“If I cleaned the church every day, mowed the yard, and kept everything neat and tidy, would that get me into Heaven?”

Again, the answer was, “NO!”

“Well, then, if I was kind to animals and gave candy to all the children, and loved my wife, would that get me into Heaven?” I asked them again.

Again, they all answered, “NO!”

“Well, I continued, “then how can I get into Heaven?”

A five-year-old boy shouted out, “YOU GOTTA BE DEAD.”

_________

The following are actual stories told by travel agents:

I had someone who wanted to stay at the Bob Newhart Inn in Connecticut. When I explained that the inn was fictional, the customer became very irate and insisted “I know it is real, I see people check in every week!”

___

I really did have someone ask for an aisle seat so that their hair wouldn’t get messed up by being near the window.

___

A client called in inquiring about a package to Hawaii. After going over all the cost info, she asked, “Would it be cheaper to fly to California and then take the train to Hawaii?”

___

I got a call from a woman who wanted to go to Capetown. I started to explain the length of the flight and the passport information when she interrupted me with “I’m not trying to make you look stupid, but Capetown is in Massachusetts.”

Without trying to make her look like the stupid one, I calmly explained, “Cape Cod is in Massachusetts, Capetown is in Africa.”

Her response … click.

___

A secretary called in looking for a hotel in Los Angeles. She gave me various names off a list, none of which I could find. I finally had her fax me the list. To my surprise, it was a list of hotels in New Orleans, Louisiana. She thought the LA stood for Los Angles, and that New Orleans was a suburb of L.A. Worst of all, when I called her back, she was not even embarrassed.

___

A man called, furious about a Florida package we did. I asked what was wrong with the vacation in Orlando. He said he was expecting an ocean-view room. I tried to explain that is not possible, since Orlando is in the middle of the state.

He replied, “Don’t lie to me. I looked on the map and Florida is a very thin state.”

___

I got a call from a man who asked, “Is it possible to see England from Canada?”

I said, “No.”

He said “But they look so close on the map.”

___

Another man called and asked if he could rent a car in Dallas. When I pulled up the reservation, I noticed he had a one-hour layover in Dallas. When I asked him why he wanted to rent a car, he said, “I heard Dallas was a big airport, and I need a car to drive between the gates to save time.”

___

A nice lady just called. She needed to know how it was possible that her flight from Detroit left at 8:20am and got into Chicago at 8:33am. I tried to explain that Michigan was an hour ahead of Illinois, but she could not understand the concept of time zones. Finally I told her the plane went very fast, and she bought that!

___

A woman called and asked, “Do airlines put your physical description on your bag so they know who’s luggage belongs to who?”

I said, “No, why do you ask?”

She replied, “Well, when I checked in with the airline, they put a tag on my luggage that said FAT, and I’m overweight, is there any connection?”

After putting her on hold for a minute while I ‘looked into it’ (I was actually laughing), I came back and explained the city code for Fresno is FAT, and that the airline was just putting a destination tag on her luggage.

___

I just got off the phone with a man who asked, “How do I know which plane to get on?”

I asked him what, exactly, he meant, to which he replied, “I was told my flight number is 823, but none of these darn planes have numbers on them.”

___

A woman called and said, “I need to fly to Pepsi-cola on one of those computer planes.”

I asked if she meant to fly to Pensacola on a commuter plane.

She said, “Yeah, whatever.”

___

A business man called and had a question about the documents he needed in order to fly to China. After a lengthy discussion about passports, I reminded him he needed a visa.

“Oh no I don’t, I’ve been to China many times and never had to have one of those.”

I double checked, and sure enough, his stay required a visa. When I told him this he said, “Look, I’ve been to China 4 times and every time, they have accepted my American Express.”

___

A woman called to make reservations; “I want to go from Chicago to Hippopotamus, New York. The agent was at a loss for words.

Finally, the agent said “Are you sure that’s the name of the town?”

“Yes, what flights do you have?” replied the customer.

After some searching, the agent came back with, “I’m sorry, ma’am, I’ve looked up every airport code in the country and can’t find a Hippopotamus anywhere.”

The customer retorted, “Oh don’t be silly. Everyone knows where it is. Check your map!”

The agent scoured a map of the state of New York and finally offered, “You don’t mean Buffalo, do you?”

“That’s it! I knew it was a big animal!”
