*** Tidbit 1 Humor Time
An 8-year-old girl went to her dad, who was working in the yard. She asked him: “Daddy, what is sex?” The Dad was surprised that she would ask such a question but decides that if she is old enough to ask the question, then she is old enough to get a straight answer.
He proceeded to tell her all about the ‘birds and the bees’. When he finished explaining, the little girl was looking at him with her mouth hanging open.
The father asked her: “Why did you ask this question?”
The little girl replied, “Mom told me to tell you that dinner would be ready in just a couple of secs.”
Words of wisdom: “There’s a fine line between a long, drawn-out sermon and a hostage situation.”
A man died and went to heaven. He was met at the Pearly Gates by St. Peter who led him down the golden streets. They passed stately homes and beautiful mansions until they came to the end of the street where they stopped in front of a rundown cabin. The man asked St. Peter why he got a hut when there were so many mansions he could live in. St. Peter replied, “I did the best with the money you sent us.”
*** Tidbit 2 Watch Your Youth
“Watch your mouth.” “You better watch your mouth!” For those of you who may not understand, watch your mouth simply means – consider carefully what you’re about to say; think before you speak, make sure you’re not about to say the wrong thing.
For many years I was a very negative person. If there would have been a prize for the most negative person, I certainly would have won it. I couldn’t find anything good to say to myself about myself. I considered suicide (this was many years ago). One day one of my sisters said, “Just go on and kill yourself.” That kind of woke me up. My next thought was, “The way my luck is (I wasn’t a Christian then. I don’t believe in luck now) I’ll try to kill myself and make a mess of it. I’ll run my car off of a bridge and then end up being paralyzed for the rest of my life.” That kind of woke me up also.
One day while I was in my dorm room in college, I looked in the mirror and said to myself, “You are somebody and you’re going to be somebody.” That was a new beginning for me. I began to change what I thought, spoke and believed about myself. I had turned my back against God. I was in a backslidden state, but I know that God was doing a work in me.
Years later I rededicated my life to the Lord. He told me that He was going to help me love myself. It has been work. It didn’t happen overnight, but thanks be to God, I am no longer that negative person.
Over the years I have learned to watch my mouth. Job 22:28 says, “Thou shalt also decree a thing and it shall be established unto thee.” I try to watch my thoughts. Proverbs 23:7a says, “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he.” It’s so easy to speak negatively: I’ll never have anything. These children are going to drive me crazy. I just look at food and gain weight. Nobody likes me. I’ll never find a job. This type of negative speaking and thinking can go on and on and on.
Then there’s the negative way we take ownership of sickness and disease: my high blood pressure, my bad back, my arthritis. Well child, you know diabetes runs in our family. My mama had it, my aunt Lucy had it. My cousin has it now. You had better get ready cause you’re gonna get it to.
So we take these statements as truths. We sign for them like we (used to) sign for a package when the UPS man came to the door. The truth is, we have to make the choice to not sign for any negative words or thoughts. Romans 8:37 tells us, “We are more than conquerors through him who loved us.” 2 Corinthians 2:14a says, “Now thanks be to God which always causeth us to triumph in Christ.”
Starting right now, watch your mouth, your thoughts, and your beliefs. There are many resources available that can help you overcome in this area. The most important one is the Word of God. Remember, it’s a process. The more you do it the easier it will become.
*** Tidbit 3 Got Broccoli?
Broccoli is a nutritional powerhouse. It’s full of vitamins, minerals, fiber and antioxidants. Lightly steamed or raw, it’s a healthy addition to your diet. Broccoli may support heart health, reduce constipation, and support healthy brain function. It’s a healthy source of vitamin C. The benefits go on and on. Put broccoli on your grocery list if you haven’t already. Remember that good health doesn’t come from any one food. We should strive to eat a rainbow of fruits and vegetables.

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 spend time with Him and get to know Him even better.
