Proverbs 11:27
Andrea on Twitter: "Proverbs 11:27
Anyone can find the dirt in someone. Be the one that finds the Gold. http://t.co/XkuU1eAKD9" Seems a very fitting passage even if it has been modernized here. |
A few translations of Proverbs 11:27
New International Version
Whoever seeks good finds favor, but evil comes to one who searches for it. New Living Translation If you search for good, you will find favor; but if you search for evil, it will find you! English Standard Version Whoever diligently seeks good seeks favor, but evil comes to him who searches for it. New American Standard Bible He who diligently seeks good seeks favor, But he who seeks evil, evil will come to him. King James Bible He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour: but he that seeketh mischief, it shall come unto him. |

The Beatitudes
Quote:
The Beatitudes Jesus said: 3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. 5 Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. 6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. 7 Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. 8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. 9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. 10 Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. |

Honestly I past this post then made myself go back and read it and am grateful I did. With the garbage I spend my entire day reading and listening to it was very nice. Thanks to all.
I was a devoted altar boy because of the money for doing weddings and funerals plus we had access to the wine. We were a real bunch of criminals. When Father O'Connell caught us drinking the altar wine he told our parents and we were punished severely. The worst part was the look in my father's face. This screw up hurt him and even though I was very young I realized how bad it was to steal the church property. I worked Bingo night with the snack and coffee cart for what seemed like forever till my father said I was on parole. I was so close to our church when I was young and I've tried to get reattached several times with no success. We will give it another try again this weekend. |
