My Favorite Song

Song of Solomon 1:1
“The song of songs, which is Solomon’s.”

Half of the battle to having a successful marriage is fought in your head. Many marriages are destroyed because of a person’s inattention to their spouse. If you are going to make your marriage successful, you are going to have to make sure that you give time to your marriage in your head.

Correcting Properly

Job 33:1
“Wherefore, Job, I pray thee, hear my speeches, and hearken to all my words.”

Correcting a person properly will give you the best chance of gaining the respect of the person being corrected. Of course, we never know how someone will respond to correction, that is completely up to the condition of their heart, but you can do your best to be sure to correct properly so that you can continue to work together as a team for many years to come.

He Maketh My Heart Soft

Job 23:16
“For God maketh my heart soft, and the Almighty troubleth me:”

One of the results of having trials in life is that it softens your heart. As I look over my ministry, there have been trials that God sent my way to soften my heart. When saying that God softened my heart, it wasn't that I didn't care for people, but the compassion to help and the tears to weep with those who weep wasn't where it should be. Every trial that God sent my way had a way of softening my heart towards God and those who are hurting.

Bible Thoughts by Terry Hedderman

Tuesday, 5/10/16  Ps 106:32b-33a, ...so that it went ill with Moses for their sakes: because they provoked his spirit... Do you provoke the spirit of ones whom you love? By your actions? Inaction (neglect)? By words? By silence? By discounting their feelings? By blaming them without any admittance of fault yourself?     

Great quote!

As the great economist Milton Friedman once said, “If you put the government in charge of the Sahara Desert, in five years there’d be a shortage of sand.”

Talk is Easy

Job 16:4
“I also could speak as ye do: if your soul were in my soul's stead, I could heap up words against you, and shake mine head at you.”

It is so easy to talk about someone and tell others what they need to do when you have never experienced what they are enduring. This is exactly what Eliphaz and his friends did to Job. They criticized Job’s spirituality and told him what they thought he needed to do when they had no idea as to the reason for his trial.

Perspective

“Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag … We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language … and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.” — Theodore Roosevelt, 1919

Changing history

In 1802, Alexander Hamilton fiercely argued against “admit[ting] indiscriminately foreign emigrants of every description to the privileges of American citizens.” In fact, he slammed uncontrolled immigration as “an attempt to break down every [wall] which has been erected for the preservation of a national spirit and a national character.” An unchecked influx, he warned, is “the most powerful means of perverting and corrupting both.”

Fast forward to today, when perverting and corrupting America’s national spirit and national character is Mission One of the left.

On March 30, 2016, Jeffrey Seller, producer of the Broadway hit “Hamilton,” said this: “[The show] ‘Hamilton’ depicts the birth of our nation in a singular way. We will continue to cast the show with the same multicultural diversity that we have employed thus far.” Which explains his casting call for “non-white men and women” to play Alexander Hamilton, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Aaron Burr. Only the villain, King George II, is played by a white male actor.

The show “Hamilton” has no clue what the real Hamilton thought, taught, believed about “multicultural diversity” — or why. But the “no-white-males-need-apply” theatrical version of America’s Founding is just the latest example of the left blatantly rewriting American history. The mission: to obliterate the distinct American culture and identity.
