When In Doubt...

Ask
Seek
Knock
Pray
Read
Listen
Give it time
Google it
Find a mentor
Read the manual
Tweet your question
Watch the how-to video
Follow given instructions
Check Facebook, Twitter, Digg, etc.
Read the newspaper (online, offline, etc.)
Talk with your friends (in person is the best option)
Participate in forums, online discussions and groups
Get a second, third, fourth and fifth opinion *the more, the merrier*
Do the research – Online libraries are great; Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Ebay, Clickbank for products

And when you run out of options, your loved ones are always there to help.

Finally, when in doubt, it always helps to seek Divine intercession. To quote the Blessed Virgin Mary, “Don’t forget about Jesus!”

Salvation Is A Pure Gift

Salvation is a pure gift. Salvation is grace -- a free gift. Everyone has access, should we choose to accept God's offer. It's right there on His table and it's up to us to reach for it and accept Jesus into our lives, along with the Father's love and the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

Lord, continue to use me to help build Your kingdom. In your mighty name Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

Store Heavenly Teasures -- That's Where My Heart Is

Matthew 6:19-21

Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

Seek Good!

Amos 5:14-15

Seek good, not evil,
that you may live.
Then the LORD God Almighty will be with you,
just as you say he is.
Hate evil, love good;
maintain justice in the courts.
Perhaps the LORD God Almighty will have mercy
on the remnant of Joseph.

My Path for 2011 Revealed

Isaiah 1:16-17

Wash and make yourselves clean.
Take your evil deeds out of my sight;
stop doing wrong.
Learn to do right; seek justice.
Defend the oppressed.
Take up the cause of the fatherless;
plead the case of the widow.

Thank you Jesus. Praise you Jesus. Amen.
