Psalm 23
1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil:
for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies:
thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life:
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

The difference between School and Life:
In School, you're taught a lesson and given a test.
In Life, you're given a test that teaches you a lesson,
(don't know the Author, but it is Biblical, isn't it)

Intelligence is overrated.did you do this for me?

Romans, Chapter 8:
14For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
15For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
16The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
17And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
(love this passage, but the next verse can be hard to accept without His wonderous grace)
18For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
(those of us who daily suffer from physical afflictions have to try hard to realize that the "glory" to come when we are at home with Him is far greater than our sufferings here)

“For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.”
Romans 14:11 (KJV)
(context)
7For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.
8For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.
9For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.
10But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
11For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.
12So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
I find it interesting that we will "bow" to Jesus, BUT, "confess" to God! Is this proof that Jesus will be sitting at the right hand of God on the day we stand before the Judgement Seat of Jesus?
