2 Christian Home & Family Bible Verses Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. Proverbs 4:23 1. Humility: Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:3 2. Love for God: Love the Lord your God with all your heart h and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength... Love your neighbor as yourself... Mark 12: Love for Others: Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor d others, it is not self-seeking, seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 Everyone should s be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry. James 1:19b 4. Thankfulness: Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God s will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:

ÔÔ ~ John Ma ~ Moses and the people were in the desert, but what was he going to do with them? They had to be fed, and feeding 2 or 3 million people require a lot of food. According to the Quartermaster General In the Army, it is reported that Moses would have to have had 1500 tons of food each day. Do you know that to bring that much food each day, two freight trains, each at least a mile long, would be required! Besides you must remember, they were out in the desert, so they would have to have firewood to use in cooking the food. This would take 4000 tons of wood and a few more freight trains, each a mile long, just for one day. And just think, they were forty years in transit. And Oh yes! They would have to have water. If they only had enough to drink and wash a few dishes, it would take 11,000,000 gallons each day and a freight train with tank cars, 1800 miles long, just to bring water! And then another thing! They had to get across the Red Sea at night. Now, if they went on a narrow path, double file, the line would be 800 miles long and would require 35 days and nights to get through. So there had to be a space in the Red Sea, 3 miles wide so that they could walk 5000 abreast to get over in one night. But then, there is another problem... each time they camped at the end of the day, a campground two-thirds the size of the state of Rhode Island was required, or a total of 750 square miles long. emz&uf+rdk@om; vuform;=ud; Think of it! This much space for camping.

8 Do you think Moses figured all this out before he left Egypt? I think not! You see, Moses believed in God. God took care of these things for him. Now do you think God has any problem taking care of all your needs? Our God is an Awesome God!!! So when the road you're traveling on seems difficult at best, just remember, keep on praying, and God will do the rest. If you have missed knowing my LORD and SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST, you have missed everything in the world!!!! >> 7. Are you wrinkled with burden? Come to the church for a face-lift. 8. When praying, don t give God instructions just report for duty. 9. Don t wait for six strong men to take you to church. 10. We don t change God s message His message changes us. 11. The church is prayer-conditioned. 12. When God ordains, He sustains. 13. Warning: Exposure to the son may prevent burning. 14. Plan ahead It wasn t raining when Noah built the ark. 15. Most people want to serve God, but only in an advisory position. 16. Suffering from truth decay? Brush up on your Bible. 17. Exercise daily walk with the Lord. 18. Never give the devil a ride he will always want to ride. 19. Nothing else ruins the truth like stretching it. 1. Give God what s right not what s left. 2. Man s way leads to hopeless end God s way leads to an endless hope. 3. A lot of kneeling will keep you in good standing. 4. He who kneels before God can stand before anyone. 5. In the sentence of life, the devil may be a comma, but never let him be the period. 6. Don t put a question mark where God puts a period. 20.
