Do things for people not because of who they are

Or what they do in return, but because of who you are.

- Harold S. Kushner

God is the light shining in the midst of darkness,

Not to deny that there is darkness in the world but

To reassure us that we do not have to be afraid of

The darkness because darkness will always yield

To light.

As theologian David Griffin puts in,

God is all-powerful; His power enables people to deal

With events beyond their control and He gives us the

Strength to do those things because He is with us.

- Harold S. Kushner

I don’t know why one person gets sick, and another does not,

But I can only assume that some natural laws which we don’t

Understand are at work.

I cannot believe that God “sends” illness to a specific person

For a specific reason.

I don’t believe in a God who has a weekly quota of malignant

Tumors to distribute, and consults His computer to find out who

Deserves one most or who could handle it best.

“What did I do to deserve this?” is an understandable outcry

From a sick and suffering person, but it is really the wrong question.

Being sick or being healthy is not a matter of what God decides

That we deserve.

The better question is “If this has happened to me,

What do I do now, and who is there to help me do it?”

… It becomes much easier to take God seriously as the source

Of moral values if we don’t hold Him responsible for all the

Unfair things that happen in the world.
- Harold S. Kushner

Jesus said, “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill,

And to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they

May have it more abundantly.” (John 10:10)

God is not the cause of sin, disease, terrorism, death, heartaches etc …

The “thief” represented by Satan or the Devil IS THE CAUSE! …

Neither Jesus Christ nor God our Heavenly Father.

The fundamental purpose of life insurance … To create cash.

The stock market is where money makes money.

But life insurance creates cash where none had existed before.

The basic purpose of life insurance is to create.

A piece of paper, a drop of ink and pennies on the dollar …

And we can create more than most people can accumulate.

It's probably the most important thing

In a person.

Present your family and friends

With their eulogies now …

They won’t be able to hear how

Much you love them and appreciate

Them from inside the coffin.

02252020 There Is Only One Reason to Buy Life Insurance

There Is Only One Reason to Buy Life Insurance

- Jack Dewald

There’s a crisis in this country of people being un- or under-insured. 

The majority of adult Americans do not own an individual life insurance policy, 

according to LIMRA International.

There really is only one very basic reason to own life insurance … 
because you love people and want to make sure that they are taken care of
financially if the worst were to happen to you. 
The bottom line … You buy life insurance to provide financial protection for
your family and, as the case may be, the business you have worked hard to create.
What if something were to happen to you? 
Don’t you want your family to be able to continue living in your home and enjoying
the life they’re accustomed to? 
And what about your children … don’t you want them to have the chance to go to college?
If you are at or near retirement, don’t you want your spouse to have income to live on in
his or her old age? 
And if you own a business, don’t you want your partners or successor to continue to run
a healthy business, not one financially crippled by the loss of a key person?

Who in your life would suffer financially if you were to die prematurely?

Don’t be another statistic of the un- or under-insured. 

Take the first step by checking out the information about the different types of 

life insurance that are available to find out which may be right for you.

Hope works in these ways …

It looks for the good in people

Instead of harping on the worst;

It discovers what can be done

Instead of grumbling about

What cannot;

It regards problems,

Large or small, as opportunities;

It pushes ahead when it would

Be easy to quit;

It lights the candle instead

Of cursing the darkness.
- Anthony Robbins

02152020 quotes

I love the game of Basketball! 

I grew up in a small town in Kentucky and loved to play the game.  

We had a nice goal in the yard, our court was paved in asphalt.

I played in grade school and for a while my freshman yr. of High School. 

In College you could always find me shooting hoops after class by myself or with friends. 

Today's quotes are in honor of the great game that has given me a lot of joy in life!

Don’t ever give up!”

- Coach Jim Valvano

Mental toughness

A pair of basketball goals
in some out of the way place.”

Our very existence consists

In our imagination of ourselves. 

The greatest tragedy that can

Befall us is to go unimagined.

What a pity that so many people

Rather believe their doubts and

Doubt their beliefs …

No doubts, and believe our beliefs!

Fear and worry is just the misuse

Of the creative powers we originally

Got to dream.

Are you a follower,
or are you a leader?
