Brain-Strain
Every now and then I come across a blog that has a "random quote". I love that, for it's mostly very thought-provoking. Well, believe it or not, but my mind engages itself into somewhat deeper thoughts sometimes, haha. Here is one that crossed my mind this morning:
"If you don't have what you need... get it!"
That was the unconsidered rough thought.
But God provides all we need. All we got to do is ask, seek and knock. And so, after pondering upon it for just an instant, I came to the conclusion that the quote should actually be:
"If you don't have what you need... it's your own doing!"
How is that for a quote?! :-)
Matthew 7:8
For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.

Morning Corry,
I try not to strain my brain cause it gets me confused ?
I will add to your quote
"If you don't have what you need...Its your own doing "-- "Now go get it ".
Blessings and have a blessed weekend !
Ron.
Grandpaw,
I hope I didn't confuse you! grin.
I love that quote. I think that's just what needed to be added.
Cole's site is shaping up nicely. I think you are doing a good work there with and for him. I love his posts.
Have a very blessed weekend, filled with lots of joy.
God's Grace.
that's a great quote, and that's a great verse
Sir Jorge,
Welcome and thanks for leaving a comment.
I definitely agree with you on that last. The Bible is filled with great verses! :-)
Have a very blessed day.
God's Grace.
I understand what you are saying, but how would you relate that logic to someone who is living in Darfur?

A Very Blessed First Wedding Anniversary to Amber and Jason =)
Kip152,
Welcome to my blog and for your comment.
Regarding your question; I can not empathize with their situation, only sympathize. Even our suffering is by God's grace and I am fully persuaded that in our suffering He still blesses us with what we need to endure it. I think you would have to talk to a believer in Darfur to tell and show you what and how God is working in their lives and seeing to their needs. :-)
Blessings to you.
Audrey,
Thanks lieve zus, that was very sweet of you. :-)
God's Grace.
Awesome quote. May I quote you on that? hehe! Blessings to you!
Amy,
By all means. What's mine is yours, dear sis.:-)
And don't forget Grandpaw's addition to it. That made it for me, hehe.
Have a very blessed day!
God's Grace.

If I recall well, Patty's blog has gone for quite a while now. I too hope she is fine.

Grandpaw,
Thanks for checking on us, we appreciate it very much!
We have been out cruising alot in our van because the heat drove us out of our home. Even the airconditioner can't keep up at times.
Lil critter is doing fine. He is scooting himself to where he wants to be and is getting into mischief, hehe. Gives his Mom more then two handfulls to deal with!
We hope to be around a little bit more often soon.
Many blessings to you.
God's Grace.
HI Corry, just wanted to drop in and say hello! How are you guys? I saw on the news that it has been very hot down there! YUCK!!!
take care and stay cool!
Angela
Angela,
Thanks for dropping in! :-)
We are doing ok, still extremely busy. It is hot here, we have a heat-wave and do everything we can to stay cool. We consider ourselves blessed because it's triple digits in many other parts around us, while we are upper 90's. But... IT'S STILL HOT!!! grin.
Many blessings to y'all.
God's Grace.
