When you snuggle into bed, hear a bird chirp, switch on a machine that takes some of the slavery out of washing, do you marvel at God's love gifts to you? When, like the most faithful servant, a clock wakes you at just the right time; when your bare foot touches carpet instead of dirt; when you switch on a light that would have astonished everyone who was ever born until relatively recently; and when you look in a small mirror that King Solomon would have paid a fortune to own, does your heart skip a beat at the lengths your Father in heaven goes to say 'I love you'? Or, like the worst spoilt child, do you just complain about how much your brothers and sister get?
By making you feel as if God loves you less than certain other Christians, it seems as if Satan is attacking your self-esteem, but he isn't. He is attacking the integrity of God. He is hissing that God's love is so inadequate that it is only people who have certain qualities whom God can love or be gracious to. That's a lie! God's love toward you is perfect. God is for you. He's cheering you on. He's on your side!
In this world, success is often relative - the closer the relative, the higher you go. Don't decry the system: remember who you call Father.
Christian, you are the focus of divine love; filled with the majesty of Almighty God; spiritually enthroned with Christ in his heavenly palace; granted the highest level of access to the greatest Person, and the holiest place. You are the work of divine hands, made perfect in Christ Jesus. And enshrined within your being resides the infinite power of the sovereign Lord.
Top fashion model Claudia Schiffer has been nominated the most beautiful woman in the world. Yet as a teenager, she concluded from her lack of popularity at school that she was not beautiful. We make a similar mistake in assuming that if we are not popular with people, we lack what it takes to make it in a big way with God.
Nothing could be further from the truth....

Obama is a SNAKE
Apparently, that statement is very unpopular here in California...
But i can't copy all the issues i have with him in here. You have to find out for yourself. Here's a good site: ontheissues.org
Here's another one: factcheck.org
Both unbiased and nonpartisan...
Obama is a deceiver and you need to watch out for him; read the fine print! McCain doesn't sound all that smart either, but at least he gives you straight answers, unlike Obama who embeds his quite dangerous answers inside of seemingly very appealing answers.
