Editor’s Note: During these tough times, there is only one person that can get us through besides ourselves is GOD. We hope you will enjoy this
We would like to know what you think. dan@youngchronicle.com .
What good is it for man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul? –Mark 8:36.
When it comes to our life, we have nothing to say about our birth and little say about our death, but in between these two events most of the decisions are ours to be made. Are you letting life and circumstances control you, or are you controlling your own life and destiny with God’s help.
Don’t let life pass you by when you have the God-given ability to make things happen. I’ve heard it said You can’t control the length of your life, but you can control its use.
You can’t control your facial appearance, but you can control
its expression.
You can’t control the weather, but you can control the moral
atmosphere that surrounds you.
You can’t control the distance of your head above the ground,
but you can control the height of the contents in your head.
You can’t control the other fellow’s annoying faults, but you
can see to it that you do not develop similar faults.
Why worry about things you cannot control? Get busy controlling
the things that depend on you.
