Dinsdag-denke
I asked one of my friends who has crossed 70 & is heading to 80 what sort of change he is feeling in him? He sent me the following very interesting lines, which I would like to share with you ...
1) After loving my parents, my siblings, my spouse, my children, my friends, now I have started loving myself.
2) I just realised that I am not “Atlas”. The world does not rest on my shoulders.
3) I now stopped bargaining with vegetables & fruits vendors. A few Rand more is not going to burn a hole in my pocket but it might help the poor fellow save for his daughter’s school fees.
4) I pay the petrol attendant a big tip. The extra money might bring a smile to his face. He is toiling much harder for a living than me
5) I stopped telling the elderly that they've already narrated that story many times. The story makes them walk down the memory lane & relive the past.
6) I have learnt not to correct people even when I know they are wrong. The onus of making everyone perfect is not on me. Peace is more precious than perfection.
7) I give compliments freely & generously. Compliments are mood enhancer not only for the recipient, but also for me.
8) I have learnt not to bother about a crease or a spot on my shirt. Personality speaks louder than appearances.
9) I walk away from people who don't value me. They might not know my worth, but I do.
10) I remain cool when someone plays dirty politics to outrun me in the rat race. I am not a rat & neither am I in any race.
11) I am learning not to be embarrassed by my emotions. It’s my emotions that make me human.
12) I have learned that its better to drop the ego than to break a relationship. My ego will keep me aloof whereas with relationships I will never be alone.
13) I have learnt to live each day as if it's the last. After all, it might be the last.
14) I am doing what makes me happy. I am responsible for my happiness, and I owe it to myself.

Vandag se internetgebed vir jou
Heer hier aan die einde van 'n dag
wil ek bid en vra
dat U ons deur hierdie nag sal dra.
Hou U hand van beskerming en bewaring oor ons.
Gee dat geen onheil oor ons pad sal kom nie.
Stuur U engele om by ons deurposte waak te hou.
Trek 'n bloedkring om elkeen van ons
en verblind die oë van ons vyande.
Dit pleit ek vir elkeen in die Magtige naam van Jesus.
Amen.

Saterdaggenotjies: So ietsie om ons dag op te kikker
Die Kleutereiendomswet:
1. As ek daarvan hou, dan is dit myne.
2. As dit in my hand is, dan is dit myne.
3. As ek dit van jou kan vat, dan is dit myne.
4. As ek dit ’n rukkie gelede gehad het, dan is dit myne.
5. As dit myne is, dan moet dit nooit lyk of dit dalk aan jou behoort nie.
6. As ek iets doen of bou, dan is al die stukke myne.
7. As dit soos myne lyk, dan is dit myne.
8. As ek dit eerste gesien het, dan is dit myne.
9. As jy met iets gespeel het en jy sit dit neer, dan word dit outomaties myne.
10. As dit stukkend is, dan is dit joune.

Dinsdag-denke: Vrae
Almal van ons vra sekere vrae een of ander tyd gedurende ons bestaan op aarde. Dalk klink die volgende vrae vir jou baie bekend:
- Waarom is ek siek?
- Waarom tref die noodlot altyd net vir my?
- Waarom moet ek die een wees wat deur swaarkry gelouter word?
- Waarom moes ek en my eggenoot skei?
- Waarom voel dit vir my asof ek nie in die lewe vorder nie, almal rondom my kry bevordering maar nie ek nie?
- Waarom moes ek die voertuig koop wat my soveel probleme gee?
- Waarom klop my finansies nie?
Ons kan aflei dat waarom beslis een van die mees gebruikte woorde is.
Ek het ongelukkig nie vir jou die antwoorde op al jou vrae nie.
Ek het ongelukkig nie vir jou die antwoorde op al jou vrae nie.
- Wat ek wel vir jou het, is die versekering dat God daar is vir jou.
- Hy weet dat ons beproef word.
- Hy weet dat ons swak is en moed opgee, maar Hy is daar, ongeag ons ongeloof en swakheid.
- Hy is lief vir jou.
- Hy sal jou bystaan.
- Vertrou net op Hom in alle omstandighede.
- Satan sal jou aanval, maar ons God is almagtig.
- Hy is groter en sterker as satan.
- Bly vertrou en wees getrou aan Hom.
"Werp al julle bekommernisse op Hom, want Hy sorg vir julle. Wees nugter, wees wakker! Julle vyand, die duiwel, loop rond soos 'n brullende leeu, op soek na iemand om te verslind. Bly standvastig in die geloof en staan hom teë. En moenie vergeet nie: dwarsdeur die wêreld moet julle medegelowiges dieselfde soort lyding verduur."
1 Kor 10: 13
"Geen versoeking wat meer is as wat 'n mens kan weerstaan, het julle oorval nie. God is getrou. Hy sal nie toelaat dat julle bo julle kragte versoek word nie; as die versoeking kom, sal Hy ook die uitkoms gee, sodat julle dit kan weerstaan."

Saterdaggenotjies: So ietsie om ons dag op te kikker
NO ONE BELIEVES SENIORS … EVERYONE THINKS THEY ARE SENILE
An elderly couple was celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary. The couple had married as childhood sweethearts and had moved back to their old neighbourhood after they retired. Holding hands, they walked back to their old school. It was not locked, so they entered. They found the old desk they'd shared, where Jerry had carved ‘I love you, Sally’.
On their way back home, a bag of money fell out of an armoured car, practically landing at their feet. Sally quickly picked it up and, not sure what to do with it, they took it home. There, she counted the money - fifty thousand dollars!
Jerry said, "We've got to give it back."
Sally said, "Finders keepers."
She put the money back in the bag and hid it in their attic.
The next day, two police officers, who were canvassing the neighbourhood looking for the money, knocked on their door. "Pardon me, did either of you find a bag that fell out of an armoured car yesterday?"
Sally said, "No."
Jerry said, "She’s lying. She hid it up in the attic."
Sally said, "Don't believe him, he’s getting senile."
The agents turned to Jerry and began to question him.
One said: "Tell us the story from the beginning."
Jerry said, "Well, when Sally and I were walking home from school yesterday .."
The first police officer turned to his partner and said, "Let’s get out of here."

Dinsdag-denke: Skokkende waarhede
SNAAKS ...
- hoe baie R10 is as jy dit kerk toe neem, en tog so min as jy Supermark toe gaan.
- hoe lank is 'n uur as jy die Here dien en hoe kort 60 minute is as jy visvang.
- hoe moeilik dit is om 'n hele hoofstuk van die Bybel op een slag te lees en hoe maklik dit is om 'n hele roman deur te lees
- hoe ons nie weet wat om te sê as ons bid nie - en tog kan ons ure lank oor nietighede gesels.
- hoe mens te moeg is na werk om biduur toe te gaan, maar hoe verfris jy voel as daar partytjie gehou word.
- hoe daar nie nog tyd is om op die kerkraad of vrouediens te dien nie, maar hoe mens ure lank na TV en video's kan kyk.
- hoe verveeld mens kan raak wanneer die dominie 30 minute lank preek, maar hoe interessant 'n vollengte rolprent kan wees.
- hoe onbekwaam 'n mens is om vir Here te werk, maar hoe op hoogte van sake jy kan wees oor die politiek van die dag.
- Nee, dit is maar net tekens van waar ons prioriteite lê - en van ons ware toewyding aan die God wat ALLES vir ons gegee het
