I read this story in a letter from Germany:

The monkey of a zoo died. But the owner of the zoo knew exactly what to do. He got hold of a monkey suit and one of his workers played the monkey. The visitors of the  zoo were so enamoured with the monkey that the monkey got also very excited about his performance. The day came when he jumped really around all over the place and…………fell into the cage of the lion.

He feared for his life and when he yelled, “Help! Help!” he heard a quiet voice beside him. “If you don’t shut up straight away, we are both losing our jobs.”

On my way into the centre of the town today I passed through one of the big shops – I think it is a shortcut – and when I went through the back door of the shop I was greeted with the poster on which I read:

“Peel away all disruption.

Keep your eyes on the game.”

I was looking at a LG Life’s Good advertisement.

In the shop I picked up the “2009/10 LG TV Collection” magazine in which I am reading about “Borderless Television”.

We don’t have Televison, but I am interested in “Peel away all disruption” and “Keep your eyes on the game”.

As a true follower of the Lord Jesus Christ and reader of the Bible, the word of the Living God in Hebrews 12:1-2 comes to my mind:

“…, let us throw off everything that hinders and

the sin that so easily entangles,…”

“Let us fix our eyes on Jesus.

the author and

perfecter of our faith,..”

I am used to finding verses from the Bible (Golden Nuggets) in the local papers, but it was a real surprise to find Matthew 17:20 in the “COFFEE NEWS” “The World’s Most Popular Restaurant Publication”. (Vol 113:2 under  “Quotable Quotes”.)

Matthew 17:20 says, “I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘move from here to there’ and it will move.”

Read this on twitter:

“Seize the day ‘redeem the now moments of your life’ the moment you are waiting for may never come and a moment passed by will not return.”

The Bible says:

Ephesians 5:16 “…, making the most of every opportunity,…”

Colossians 4:5 “..; make the most of every opportunity.”
