1. Wake Up !!
Decide to have a good day. "This is the day the Lord hath made; let us
rejoice and be glad in it." Psalms 118:24
2. Dress Up !!
The best way to dress up is to put on a smile. A smile is an inexpensive
way to improve your looks. "The Lord does not look at the things man
looks at. Man looks at outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the
heart." I Samuel 16:7
3. Shut Up!! Say nice things and learn to listen. God gave us two
ears and one mouth, so He must have meant for us to do twice as much
listening as talking. "He who guards his lips guards his soul." Proverbs
13:3
4. Stand Up!! . . .
for what you believe in. Stand for something or you will fall for
anything. "Let us not be weary in doing good; for at the proper time, we
will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Therefore, as we have
opportunity, let us do good..." Galatians 6:9-10
5. Look Up !! . . .
to the Lord. "I can do everything through Christ who strengthens me".
Philippians 4:13
6. Reach Up !!
. . .
for something higher. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean
not unto your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him, and
He will direct your path." Proverbs 3:5-6
7. Lift Up !! . . .
your Prayers. "Do not worry about anything; instead PRAY ABOUT
EVERYTHING." Philippians 4:6
A POSITIVE THOUGHT If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on
it. If He had a wallet, your photo would be in it. He sends you flowers
every spring, and a sunrise every morning. Whenever you want to talk,
He'll listen. He could live anywhere in the universe, and He chose your
heart. What about the Christmas gift He sent you in Bethlehem; not to
mention that Friday at Calvary. Face it, He's crazy about you.
