..Elder Stephen F. Smith Create Your Badge..
Thank you for adding me Pastor Smith! God bless you with His peace and power in manifestation.
"Psalms 37:3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. 4 Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. 5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. 6 And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday."
Had no degree, yet they called Him Teacher. Had no medicines, yet they called Him Healer. He had no army, yet kings feared Him. He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world. He committed no crime, yet they curcified Him. He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today. I feel honored to serve such a Leader who loves us!
1Peter5:7Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. JESUS CHIRST CARETH FOR YOU. LET JESUS FIX IT FOR YOU.I LOVE YOU IN JESUS NAME. BE BLESSED OF THE LORD. AMEN.

Inspirational Word! In the Holy Bible the Apostle Paul speaks about readily adjusting your attitude towards ALL people, places and things... No matter how positive you are, everything is NOT going to go your way.. WE MUST be ready to make the most of every situation that comes our way. DO NOT let minor annoyances and problems ruin your day. The difference between happy positive people and unhappy negative people is the willingness to change and adjust our attitudes in any and every situation.... Have a positive week! :-)
