*** Nugget 1 Humor Time
- You come from dust and you will return to dust. That’s why I don’t dust. It could be someone I know.
- Give Satan an inch and he’ll be a ruler.
- Read the Bible – It will scare the hell out of you.
What is the funniest experience you have ever had in church?
- Realizing my toddler had ditched her undies and was currently mooning the people in the pews behind us.
- Having my thigh high stockings, (they were too big, I had lost weight) fall down to my ankles.
- A sign outside a church read: This week’s sermon, “What is Hell?” Underneath that; “Come along to choir practice and find out”.
Politically correct ways to say someone is unintelligent:
- The cheese slid off his cracker.
- He fell out of the Stupid tree and hit every branch on the way down.
- Her sewing machine’s out of thread.
*** Nugget 2 Beets
Beetroots, commonly known as beets, have never been one of my favorite vegetables. In the past I would juice them, but never eat them. Do you eat beets? If your answer is yes, then you’ll love the information that I’m about to share with you. If your answer is no, then hopefully you will learn some things about beets and will begin to include them in your diet.
Beets and beet greens are packed with essential vitamins, minerals and plant compounds, some of which have medicinal properties. They are loaded with life-giving minerals, including magnesium (which has lots of benefits, including Alzheimer’s prevention), potassium (which aids heart, kidneys, muscle, nerve, and digestive functions), copper, iron, and phosphorus, an essential mineral aiding cell function throughout the body – and they’re good for bones and teeth, too.
Beets are also a great source of Vitamins A, B, and C, as well as healthy fiber. They are also low in calories and fat. They contain manganese (which is good for your bones, liver, kidneys, and pancreas) and B vitamin folate, which helps reduce the risk of birth defects.
Beets may help:
1. Keep blood pressure in check
2. Fight inflammation
3. Support brain health
4. Improve digestive health
5. Help fight cancer
6. Boost your stamina
There are many ways to enjoy beets AND the green leafy tops. They can be juiced. They can be added to smoothies. They can be sautéed lightly just like other greens such as spinach and kale. They can be grated raw and added to salads. They can be marinated with lemon juice, herbs, and olive oil.
If you buy beets already cooked, make sure you consider the sodium and the sugar content as well. Although beets have the highest sugar content of all vegetables, most people can safely eat them a few times a week. The beet greens can be eaten in unlimited quantities.
Why not include beets in your Do Better Challenge. I hope you’re still trying to do better. Go online, find and experiment with some recipes and enjoy. I’m sure your body will say, “Thank you!”
*** Nugget 3 Justice Delayed
Revelation 6:9 –11, NRSV
When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slaughtered for the word of God and for the testimony they had given; 10 they cried out with a loud voice, “Sovereign Lord, holy and true, how long will it be before you judge and avenge our blood on the inhabitants of the earth?” 11 They were each given a white robe and told to rest a little longer, until the number would be complete both of their fellow servants and of their brothers and sisters, who were soon to be killed as they themselves had been killed.
John, writer of the book of Revelation tells us things that are going to take place after the church leaves the earth. The seals in chapter 6 represent the beginning of Christ’s judgment of unbelievers on the earth during the Tribulation period. The fifth seal presents the saints (Tribulation saints) that were killed because they believed in the word of God and confessed the truth of it. They held fast to their profession of faith and as a result they were murdered.
John saw these martyrs crying out to God for vengeance. They were told to sit back in their white robes of victory and honor, and wait. Justice was delayed but it would not be denied. They had no impatience, no uneasiness, and no doubts.
Learn how to wait on God. It may seem like He has forgotten. It may seem like there will be no justice, but hold on. You don’t have to get stressed out. Negative stress can lead to all sorts of health problems. Don’t take matters into your own hands.
God will set it right when His people are persecuted. While you’re trying to figure it out, He’s already worked it out. He will judge His enemies and yours. Sit back, and give Him praise and glory while you wait.
Hallelujah to the King of kings & Lord of lords!
The information that I have shared with you is intended for informational purposes only.
Have you accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior? If you wait, it could be too late. For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting live (John 3:16).
If you have already accepted Him, He wants you to get to know Him even better.
