Spiritual Sunday

100_5989

1] Prayer is not a "spare wheel" that you pull out when in trouble, but it is a "steering wheel" that directs the right path throughout.

100_5998

2] So why is a Car's WINDSHIELD so large and the Rear view Mirror is so small? Because our PAST is not as important as our FUTURE. So, Look Ahead and Move on.

100_6003

3] Friendship is like a BOOK. It takes few seconds to burn, but it takes years to write.

100_6023

4] All things in life are temporary. If going well, enjoy it, they will not last forever. If going wrong, don't worry, they can't last long either.

100_6027

5] Old Friends are Gold! New Friends are Diamond! If you get a Diamond, don't forget the Gold! Because to hold a Diamond, you always need a Base of Gold!

100_6033

6] Often when we lose hope and think this is the end, GOD smiles from above and says, "Relax, sweetheart, it's just a bend, not the end!"

100_6052 Be Happy

7] When GOD solves your problems, you have faith in HIS abilities; when GOD doesn't solve your problems HE has faith in your abilities.

100_6064

8] A blind person asked St. Anthony: "Can there be anything worse than losing eye sight?" He replied: "Yes, losing your vision!"

100_6092To much sun

9] When you pray for others, God listens to you and blesses them, and sometimes, when you are safe and happy, remember that someone has prayed for you.

100_6114

10] WORRYING does not take away tomorrow's TROUBLES, it takes away today's PEACE.

Don Quixote: Dost not see? A monstrous giant of infamous repute whom I intend to encounter.
