“God loves to bless you. He has even declared that ‘blessings shall come upon you and overtake you.’ This means that you can’t run fast enough to escape them! When you turn one corner, there is a blessing waiting for you. When you turn another corner, you run smack into another blessing!"

Quote from the site below the poster:

“Choose Joy.
The universe works this way: you can choose joy like your weather, like your very own sky.
Like your very own oxygen.”


I have a different perspective on references to the Universe. My personization of the quote to fit it for me would be:

“Choose joy, moment by moment, Paula...the kind that has nothing to do with circumstances and emotion and everything to do with God and His goodness. Because the joy of the Lord is my strength: I can choose joy like my weather, like my very own sky. Like my very own oxygen.”


Some of you guys might enjoy poking around the website. I love the music and photography there: http://www.aholyexperience.com/ and there are some treasures and wonderful quotes on the site as well as in the book the author of the website has written "1000 Gifts: A dare to live fully where you are". That book spurred me on to write down a 1000 gift gratefulness list in my blog through the storms of cancer and continues to do me a world of good.

"Impossible is a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is an opinion, not a fact. Impossible isn't a declaration, it's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing."

--David Beckham in Kris Carr's Crazy, Sexy Cancer Tips




"For with God NOTHING will be impossible.”
Luke 1:37

Attitude
By Charles Swindoll

"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of
attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important
than facts. It is more important than the past, than
education, than money, than circumstances, than
failures, than successes, than what other people think
or say or do. It is more important than appearance,
giftedness, or skill. It will make or break a
company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is
we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we
will embrace for that day. We cannot change our
past... we cannot change the fact that people will act
in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable.
The only thing we can do is play on the string we have,
and that is our attitude... I am convinced that life is
10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And
so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes."

Cat, if you look on the left side, right above the member's name, you can see the date of the last post. Believe51 started this in 2007 and it's kept going with some breaks in between. There's an interesting collection of quotes if you look back. Believe51, PinkGirl, Andi, Fauxgypsy, Chris, Jackie, and anybody else who used to post quotes in this thread or others who also enjoy quotes---you guys have any new ones you'd possibly want to add to the thread? Who else has some quotable quotes they want to share?

I took a look back a ways and saw Brenda (Hutchibk) posted quotes periodically too. Here's one she passed along:

"Beware what you read in medical books, you might die of a misprint..."

Oh, you said inspirational. Sorry. I'll get back to you.

"What you think you can’t handle — might actually be God handing you a gift."
"...Giving thanks isn’t a pollyanna game — but a powerhouse game-changer...."
"...And a gravelly voice speaks of cancer and a grave and a child whose name she wears around her neck, and we finger that name together and fiercely believe in a Father who knows and holds and cups like relief, like a lung, when we can’t breathe."
"And I think of everything I have chaffed against and railed about and howled to the heavens and who am I to know what is best or not — but when you bow and surrender to the sovereignty of God then you are in the posture to receive all as a gift."

Re: ~Daily Inspirational Quotes.....
 

"Not everyone should have a front row seat in our lives. There are some people in your life that need to be loved from a distance. It's amazing what you can accomplish when you let go of or at least minimize your time with draining, negative, incompatible, not-going-anywhere relationships. Observe the relationships around you. Pay attention. Which ones lift and which ones lean? Which ones encourage and which ones discourage? Which ones are on a path of growth uphill and which ones are going downhill? When you leave certain people do you feel better or feel worse? Which ones always have drama or don't really understand, know, or appreciate you? The more you seek quality, respect, growth, peace of mind, love and truth around you, the easier it will become for you to decide who gets to sit in the front row and who should be moved to the balcony of your life."

“Most of us miss out on life’s big prizes.
The Pulitzer.
The Heisman.
Oscars.
But we’re all eligible for life’s small pleasures.
A pat on the back.
A kiss behind the ear.
A four pound bass.
A full moon.
An empty parking space.
A crackling fire.
A great meal.
A glorious sunset.
Enjoy life’s tiny delights.
There are plenty for all of us.”
