Lessons

Fuel others with positive energy.

By Jon Gordon

With so many people in the world telling us we can't succeed, we need to hear people telling us we can.

This was submitted by a guy who purchased his lovely wife a small, pink "Pocket Taser" for their anniversary...

This is a powerful ad campaign to show adults that children will mimic what they see... especially from people who are supposed to be their role models.

Australia’s National Association for the Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect, launched this thought-provoking television/cinema campaign in 2009. Watch this movie and, if it moves you, share it will others... especially with those who have children .

Thanksgiving Day was near. The first grade teacher gave her class a fun assignment -- to draw a picture of something for which they were thankful.

Most of the class might be considered economically disadvantaged, but still many would celebrate the holiday with turkey and other traditional goodies of the season. These, the teacher thought, would be the subjects of most of her student's art. And they were.

Considering the times, some people have become half-hearted about their faith.
So, here are some standard church hymns as they may be titled today...

Amazing Grace, How Interesting The Sound

I Surrender Some
 
Fill My Spoon, Lord
 
Oh, How I Like Jesus

Joyful, Joyful, We Kinda Like Thee
