Everything you do in the dark will sooner or later come to light.

A closed mouth won't get fed.

Say what you mean and mean what you say.

A hard head makes a soft a$$.

Live everyday as if it were your last

If you're going to pray, don't worry and if you're going to worry, don't pray.

Don't take things for granted.

Praise the Lord for the things that He's done, doing now, and will continue to do for you.

Peace and God Bless

Be the best of the best. Be better than all the rest.

Strive to be better than the best.

I'm constantly reminding myself of this:

"it is not easy to find happiness in ourselves, and it is not possible to find it elsewhere"

You are just reading my thoughts today, I posted my favorite scripture on the First Topic I ever started but it will also answer your question here.

"Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God, and the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7

Summary: Through the Lord's divine grace and wisdom , ALL things that are meant to be will be.

That's where I got the THOUGHT to post the topic!

Thanks for the idea!

This is something my grandmother always told us(granddaughters) about bad boys, "mess with trash and its sure to get in your eyes". In other words they will get you in trouble everytime!

What words, phrases, scriptures, cliche's, etc. do you live by?

1. What goes around comes around...

2. Do unto other's as you'd have them do unto you...

3. A little something passed down from my Grandmother...(make a fist) If you keep your "hand" closed, in a fist, nothing can come IN AND nothing can go out...BUT,(open hand) if you keep your hand OPEN, everything can come IN and everything can go out... That's the truth!

As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.

Give a man a fish
Feed him for a day
Teach a man how to fish
Feed him for a life time.
