The road to success in life isn’t always straight.
There’s a curve, called FAILURE.
A loop, called CONFUSION.
Speed bumps, called FRIENDS.
Red lights, called ENEMIES.
Caution lights, called FAMILIES.
And flat tires, called JOBS.
However …
If you have a spare, called DETERMINATION …
An engine, called PERSEVERANCE …
Insurance, called FAITH …
And a Driver, called JESUS …
You will make it to a place called …
SUCCESS.

1 Samuel 25; Matthew 7:12 – "Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets."
1. PEOPLE ARE FICKLE - furthermore, they tend to be selfish and unappreciative.
2. DON’T BANK ON THE APPRECIATION OR RECIPROCATION OF OTHERS - even when you’ve done your very best to give them every reason to be both reciprocal AND appreciative.
3. SHARE YOUR BLESSINGS AND RESOURCES – exercise the Golden Rule, that you might be blessed with friends, and not enemies, in life.
4. DON’T BE CHURLISH – this inspires opposition in others; and, furthermore, it EXASPERATES them.
5. MAKE UP FOR ANOTHER’S CHURLISHNESS IF POSSIBLE – IF possible, that is.
6. DON’T FLIP OUT WHEN THINGS DON’T GO AS YOU’D PLANNED OR PRESUMED THEY WOULD GO – don’t overreact, as David did. And don’t blow your stack, as Nabal did. Both reactions have a tendancy to lead to premature death.
7. KEEP GOD INVOLVED – and align your responses with His merciful character and compassion. BE THE BIGGER MAN – and God will handle your Nabal FOR you.

Latest news reports are that five terrorist cell groups have been operating in many of our churches.
They have been identified as: Bin Sleepin, Bin Arguin, Bin Fightin, Bin Complainin, and Bin Missin.
Their leader, Lucifer Bin Workin, trained these groups to destroy the Body of Christ.
The plan is to come into the church disguised as Christians and to do the work within the church to discourage, disrupt, and destroy.
However, there have been reports of a sixth group.
A tiny cell known by the name of Bin Prayin is actually the only effective counter terrorism force in the church.
Unlike other terrorist cells, the Bin Prayin team does not blend in with whoever and whatever comes along.
Bin Prayin does whatever is needed to uplift and encourage the Body of Christ.
We have noticed that the Bin Prayin cell group has different characteristics than the others.
They have Bin Watchin, Bin Waitin, Bin Fastin, and Bin Longin for their Master, Jesus Christ to return.
No church is exempt! However, you can spot them if you bin lookin and bin goin.

People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.
If you are honest and sincere, people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.
What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.
Give the best you have, and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.
