SUCCESS IS A MUCH USED WORD
Who do you listen to when you are hearing or reading about success?
Today I am reading again about success:
Jim Rohn says,”Successful people do what unsuccessful people are not willing to do. Don’t wish it were easier; wish you were better.”
And this is a quote by Vidal Sassoon: “The only place where success comes before work is in the dictionary.”
Think about what you have read and heard about success.
I remember also that the Bible tells us the way to success. We find the word “successful” twice in the book of Joshua. For those who do not know Joshua is part of the Bible.
In Joshua 1:7 we find the word “successful” and also in Joshua 1:8.
Listen to what it says in Joshua 1:7:
“Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it from it to the right or to the left, that you be successful wherever you go.” (NIV)
I am not listening to people, but I am listening to what the Lord Jesus Christ says in the Bible. (In the book of Joshua.)
“LOVING OTHERS …”
“LOVING OTHERS MAY MEAN TEARS AND HEARTACHE, AND MUCH PERSEVERING PRAYER.” – Andrew Murray
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE BOOK?
What is my favourite book?
That is the question I am asking myself when I am reading about the favourite book of someone on a bookmark.
It is a Book Depository bookmark. The bookmark tells me that it is a #BDDesign bookmark.
I am reading also that it is designed by one of the customers of the book store and that it is part of a set.
The name of the designer is also given and I notice that the designer is from the country of Serbia.
You can also see a photo of the front cover of the favourite book of the designer. The favourite book is called “Growth of the Soil” by Knut Hamsun.
What is my favourite book? My favourite book is the BIBLE.
And what is your favourite book? Please let me know.
