When you are INSULTED, CHOOSE TO PRAY
When You Are Insulted, Choose to Pray
by Tom Holladay
"Pray for those who insult you." Luke 6:28 (GWT)
When it comes to being insulted, there is something Jesus said in Matthew 5 that can make us scratch our heads. "If someone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to him the other cheek also" (Matthew 5:39 NCV). Huh?
In order to understand this verse, we need to understand the culture of that day. In biblical times, a slap was not an act of violence. It was a backhanded slap indicating an insult. When you slapped someone on the cheek, you were insulting that person. Many times the person would slap back with another insult.
People insult you to gain control. If they can get you to insult them back, you've given them the higher ground and it puts them in control.
What Jesus was saying in Matthew 5 is to just let it go. Don't play their game. Give the situation to God.
It takes a lot of strength not to insult someone in return. So how do you do it?
Remember what God says about you. No matter what negative thing that person says, remember that God says he loves you. God made you, and he has a plan and purpose for your life. God's opinion is more important than any other person's opinion.
Instead of retaliating, God wants us to break the cycle in a different way. "Don't retaliate when people say unkind things about you. Instead, pay them back with a blessing. That is what God wants you to do, and he will bless you for it" (1 Peter 3:9 NLT). How do you return an insult with a blessing? Pray. "Pray for those who insult you" (Luke 6:28 GWT).
How do you pray for somebody who has hurt you? King David, a man after God's own heart, prayed for people who insulted and rejected him. You can find many of those prayers in the book of Psalms. What I love about his prayers is that he begins many of them by telling God his honest feelings about the people who hurt him.
That's how our prayers should start. Don't pretend to be pious; God knows what is on your mind anyway. Tell God how you honestly feel. Admit you are struggling to pray for the other person, but then ask God to bless him or her. Honest and humble prayers have the power to make a difference in this world.
"Love is knowing God, and happiness is sharing Him with others".
Love one another: for love is of God".

Come on these are JOKES and ONLY JOKES Laugh a little.
*DISNEYLAND*
Two blondes were going to Disneyland . They were driving on the
Interstate when they saw the sign that said Disneyland LEFT. They
started crying and turned around and went home.*
FLORIDA OR MOON*
Two blondes living in Oklahoma were sitting on a bench talking, and one
blonde says to the other, 'Which do you think is farther away... Florida
or the moon?' The other blonde turns and says 'Helloooooooooo, can you
see Florida?'*
CAR TROUBLE*
A blonde pushes her BMW into a gas station. She tells the
Mechanic it died. After he works on it for a few minutes, it is idling
smoothly.*
She says, 'What's the story?'*
He replies, 'Just crap in the carburetor'*
She asks, 'How often do I have to do that?'*
SPEEDING TICKET*
A police officer stops a blonde for speeding and asks her very nicely
if he could see her license.*
She replied in a huff, 'I wish you guys would get your act together.
Just yesterday you take away my license and then today you expect me to
show it to you!'*
RIVER WALK*
There's this blonde out for a walk. She comes to a river and sees
another blonde on the opposite bank 'Yoo-hoo!' she shouts, 'How can I
get to the other side?'*
The second blonde looks up the river then down the river and shouts
back, 'You ARE on the other side.'*
AT THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE*
A gorgeous young redhead goes into the doctor's office and said that
her body hurt wherever she touched it.*
Impossible!' says the doctor.. 'Show me.'*
The redhead took her finger, pushed on her left shoulder and screamed,
then she pushed her elbow and screamed even more. She pushed her knee
and screamed; likewise she pushed her ankle and screamed. Everywhere she
touched made her scream.*
The doctor said, 'You're not really a redhead, are you?*
Well, no' she said, 'I'm actually a blonde.'*
I thought so,' the doctor said, 'Your finger is broken.'*
KNITTING*
A highway patrolman pulled alongside a speeding car on the freeway.
Glancing at the car, he was astounded to see that the blonde behind the
wheel was knitting!*
Realizing that she was oblivious to his flashing lights and siren, the
trooper cranked down his window, turned on his bullhorn and yelled,
'PULL OVER!'*
NO!' the blonde yelled back, 'IT'S A SCARF!'*
BLONDE ON THE SUN*
A Russian, an American, and a Blonde were talking one day.*
The Russian said, 'We were the first in space!'*
The American said, 'We were the first on the moon!'*
The Blonde said, 'So what? We're going to be the first on the sun!' The
Russian and the American looked at each other and shook their heads.*
You can't land on the sun, you idiot! You'll burn up!' said the Russian.*
To which the Blonde replied, 'We're not stupid, you know. We're going
at night!'*
IN A VACUUM*
A blonde was playing Trivial Pursuit one night.... It was her turn. She
rolled the dice and she landed on Science & Nature. Her question was,
'If you are in a vacuum and someone calls your name, can you hear it?'
She thought for a time and then asked, 'Is it on or off?'*
FINALLY,
THE BLONDE JOKE TO END ALL BLONDE JOKES!*
A girl was visiting her blonde friend, who had acquired two new dogs,
and asked her what their names were. The blonde responded by saying that
one was named Rolex and one was named Timex. Her friend said, 'Whoever
heard of someone naming dogs like that?' 'HELLLOOOOOOO......,' answered
the blonde. They're watch dogs.

Today is June 8th 2011
Do you know I have been here for 6 years, (June 2, 2005). If you have been watching my blog and seeing all that has been going on since I have been here. I just am so blessed to say I signed up for 6 months and look it has been 6 years. I have been told before that most maintenance people only make it for a year or two. Not even thinking 6 years. I do look back at the times when I really did ask Him, am I suppose to be here still? I am here because of Him and only because of HIM Jesus Christ.
It has been a rough road some days and easy one too. All I can say is I am here until He calls me out. I do love being part of this ministry Adventure Learning Centre. But if you have read some of the tings I deal with. You would ask yourself how does he he still do it? Like I have talked about before, His grace and His strength. There is no other answer.
So now what do I do? I will stay here until He comes and gets me, or He tells me it is time to go somewhere else.
Now you can understand the picture I have above here. I do get to lay around on a hammock and play with Scooby. Oh this is after I worked all day long.

Ministry Of Encouragement
**RELIGIOUS HUMOR**
**A father was approached by his small son who told him proudly, "I know
what the Bible means!"
His father smiled and replied, "What do you mean, you 'know' what the
Bible means?
The son replied, "I do know!"
"Okay," said his father. "What does the Bible mean?"
"That's easy, Daddy..." the young boy replied excitedly," It stands for
'Basic Information Before Leaving Earth.' (This one is my favorite)
=======
There was a very gracious lady who was mailing an old family Bible to
her brother in another part of the country.
"Is there anything breakable in here?" asked the postal clerk.
"Only the Ten Commandments." answered the lady.
========
"Somebody has said there are only two kinds of people in the world.
There are those who wake up in the morning and say, "Good morning,
Lord," and there are those who wake up in the morning and say, "Good
Lord, it's morning."
========
A minister parked his car in a no-parking zone in a large city because
he was short of time and couldn't find a space with a meter.
Then he put a note under the windshield wiper that read: "I have
circled the block 10 times. If I don't park here, I'll miss my
appointment. Forgive us our trespasses."
When he returned, he found a citation from a police officer along with
this note "I've circled this block for 10 years. If I don't give you a
ticket I'll lose my job. Lead us not into temptation."
========
There is the story of a pastor who got up one Sunday and announced to
his congregation: "I have good news and bad news. The good news is, we
have enough money to pay for our new building program. The bad news is,
it's still out there in your pockets."
========
While driving in Pennsylvania, a family caught up to an Amish carriage.
The owner of the carriage obviously had a sense of humor, because
attached to the back of the carriage was a hand printed sign... "Energy
efficient vehicle: Runs on oats and grass. Caution: Do not step in exhaust."
========
A Sunday School teacher began her lesson with a question, "Boys and
girls, what do we know about God?"
A hand shot up in the air. "He is an artist!" said the kindergarten boy.
"Really? How do you know?" the teacher asked.
"You know - Our Father, who does art in Heaven... "
========
A minister waited in line to have his car filled with gas just before a
long holiday weekend. The attendant worked quickly, but there were many
cars ahead of him. Finally, the attendant motioned him toward a vacant pump.
"Reverend," said the young man, "I'm so sorry about the delay. It seems
as if everyone waits until the last minute to get ready for a long trip."
The minister chuckled, "I know what you mean. It's the same in my business."
========
People want the front of the bus, the back of the church, and the center
of attention.
========
Sunday after church, a Mom asked her very young daughter what the lesson
was about.
The daughter answered, "Don't be scared, you'll get your quilt."
Needless to say, the Mom was perplexed. Later in the day, the pastor
stopped by for tea and the Mom asked him what that morning's Sunday
school lesson was about.
He said "Be not afraid, thy comforter is coming."
========
The minister was preoccupied with thoughts of how he was going to ask
the congregation to come up with more money than they were expecting for
repairs to the church building. Therefore, he was annoyed to find
that the regular organist was sick and a substitute had been brought in
at the last minute. The substitute wanted to know what to play.
"Here's a copy of the service," he said impatiently. "But, you'll have
to think of something to play after I make the announcement about the
finances."
During the service, the minister paused and said, "Brothers and Sisters,
we are in great difficulty; the roof repairs cost twice as much as we
expected and we need $4,000 more. Any of you who can pledge $100 or
more, please stand up."
At that moment, the substitute organist played "The Star Spangled Banner."
And that is how the substitute became the regular organist!

When you carry the Bible, Satan gets a headache..... When you open it,
he collapses..... When he sees you reading it, he faints..... When he
sees that you are living what you read, he flees..... And when you are
about to forward this message.... He will try and discourage you. I
just defeated him!!! Any other takers?

Please take a minute and read this. I hope you laugh as hard as I did
If you don't know GOD, don't make stupid remarks!!!!!!
A United States Marine was taking some college courses
between assignments. He had completed 20 missions in Iraq
and Afghanistan . One of the courses had a professor who
was an avowed atheist, and a member of the ACLU.
One day the professor shocked the class when he came in.
He looked to the ceiling and flatly stated, "GOD, if you are real, then
I want you to knock me off this platform... I'll give you exactly 15 min."
The lecture room fell silent. You could hear a pin drop. Ten minutes
went by and the professor proclaimed, "Here I am GOD, I'm still waiting."
It got down to the last couple of minutes when the Marine got
out of his chair, went up to the professor, and cold-cocked him;
knocking him off the platform. The professor was out cold.
The Marine went back to his seat and sat there, silently.
The other students were shocked and stunned, and sat there
looking on in silence. The professor eventually came to,
noticeably shaken, looked at the Marine and asked,
"What in the world is the matter with you? Why did you do that?"
The Marine calmly replied,
"GOD was too busy today protecting America 's
soldiers who are protecting your right to say stupid stuff and
act like an idiot. So He sent me."
The classroom erupted in cheers!

Hello my friends from CCA 4th grade
I just finished cutting out all of your letters so I could take a picture of them. I am so happy to hear from you guys. It really was nice of Mrs Adams to have you all write a note or two. I read them last night and then wrote back to all of you. I really hope and pray I didn't miss any one of you?
I know your school year is ending very shortly. So I don't think I will see you again in your class. But when I do get back that way, around Sept, I would love to see you guys again. I know by then you will all be in different classes. So maybe I will see you around the campus during my time there.
I just want you all to know how much I enjoyed reading your letters. Oh plus how you all ask me about my tooth. Like I told you in the e mail. It has been pulled and I still need some more work done on my mouth. So please when your mom or dad ask to to go to the dentist. Please go and don't be scared. They are there to help you not to hurt you. I had to learn the hard way. I didn't like my dentist, but I wish I went more offend. I would not have the trouble I am having now. Please listen to your mom and dad. They love you very much and that just want the best for you.
I really hope and pray you have a wonderful Summer and like I said, maybe we will see each other next time I am in town. If not I know we will see each other in heaven down the road.
I just want to say thank you very much Mrs Adams for your time and willingness to have me come in and share with your class.
I am not sure if the school will be doing that next school year or not. I hope so. It is a lot of fun to see these kids faces and smiles while I was there.
Thank you again for all of your prayers too. I know that is how I make each day here at the Adventure Learning Centre. That is the only way I would be able to fix and repair all I do here.

What you can do with a cell phone, good stuff
Very Useful cell phone info
*Here is a list of things that you may or may not know about!*
*/_THINGS YOU NEVER KNEW YOUR CELL PHONE COULD DO._/*
*
There are a few things that can be done in times of
grave emergencies. Your mobile phone can actually be
a life saver or an emergency tool for survival. Check
out the things that you can do with it:*
*_
FIRST_
Subject: Emergency
The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is 112.*
*If you find yourself out of the coverage area of your**
mobile; network and there is an emergency, dial 112
and the mobile will search any existing network to
establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly
this number 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is locked.
Try it out. (I have entered in my cell phone number directory.)*
*_
SECOND_**
Subject: Have you locked your keys in the car?*
*Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy
someday. Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys
in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home
on their cell phone from your cell phone. Hold your cell phone
about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home
press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on
their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to
drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be
hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the
other "remote" for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the
trunk).**
Editor's Note: It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked
our car over a cell phone!"*
*_
THIRD_**
Subject: Hidden Battery Power
Imagine your cell battery is very low. To activate, press
the keys *3370# Your cell will restart with this reserve
and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery.
This reserve will get charged when you charge your cell
next time. (I have entered the access # in cell phone directory.)*
*_
FOURTH_**
How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone?
To check your Mobile phone's serial number, key in the
following digits on your phone: * # 0 6 # A 15 digit code will
appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset.
Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. When your phone get
stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this
code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if
the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally
useless. You probably won't get your phone back, but at least
you know that whoever stole it can't use/sell it either.
If everybody does this, there would be no point in people
stealing mobile phones. And Finally....(I have made note of my
phone's serial number.)*

Cell phone companies are charging us $1.00 to $1.75 or
more for 411 information calls when they don't have to.
Most of us do not carry a telephone directory in our
vehicle, which makes this situation even more of a problem. When
you need to use the 411 information option, simply dial: (800)
FREE 411, or (800) 373-3411 without incurring any charge at all.
Program this into your cell phone now. (I have entered this # in
my cell phone directory.)* *_

This is the kind of information people don't mind receiving, so

*Here is a list of things that you may or may not know about!*
*/_THINGS YOU NEVER KNEW YOUR CELL PHONE COULD DO._/*
*
There are a few things that can be done in times of
grave emergencies. Your mobile phone can actually be
a life saver or an emergency tool for survival. Check
out the things that you can do with it:*
*_
FIRST_
Subject: Emergency
The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is 112.*
*If you find yourself out of the coverage area of your**
mobile; network and there is an emergency, dial 112
and the mobile will search any existing network to
establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly
this number 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is locked.
Try it out. (I have entered in my cell phone number directory.)*
*_
SECOND_**
Subject: Have you locked your keys in the car?*
*Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy
someday. Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys
in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home
on their cell phone from your cell phone. Hold your cell phone
about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home
press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on
their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to
drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be
hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the
other "remote" for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the
trunk).**
Editor's Note: It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked
our car over a cell phone!"*
*_
THIRD_**
Subject: Hidden Battery Power
Imagine your cell battery is very low. To activate, press
the keys *3370# Your cell will restart with this reserve
and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery.
This reserve will get charged when you charge your cell
next time. (I have entered the access # in cell phone directory.)*
*_
FOURTH_**
How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone?
To check your Mobile phone's serial number, key in the
following digits on your phone: * # 0 6 # A 15 digit code will
appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset.
Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. When your phone get
stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this
code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if
the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally
useless. You probably won't get your phone back, but at least
you know that whoever stole it can't use/sell it either.
If everybody does this, there would be no point in people

Okay now I can tell you why all the log in today
This week that has passed as been a real stretch for me. First Saturday after noon. I took the group that is below to the canals. We went there to go swimming and just relax. I left my phone on a towel and came back and it was gone. My problem, really, I saw the people sitting around and figure they would not touch my phone. Please don't be like me, trusting every one. So after that day I could not talk with no one by phone. First problem is I don't have numbers. That is right PLEASE take ten minutes and write down all your numbers in your phone. If not when you get it stolen or miss placed. They are gone for good.
Sunday was a nice day to relax. But I had a group in and had to make sure they cleaned up and left around 2pm. Looking at the pictures below, you see a freezer with colored water under it. This got unplugged by that group. Now it really was not their fault. By looking at the way the plug is in the wall. There is a surge protector on it and weights the plug down. It just fill out and was laying on the floor. No one saw it. So Thursday morning I was going around and checking to see how the kitchen looked and the back apartment. (Oh mean while Steve's group left last Tuesday morning). I saw the mess on the floor and just shook my head and said WHY? By looking at it I can see how it fill out. I put a pumper strap on it and it will not fall out again.
Monday went down and go a new sim chip and I have a phone again. Remember to write the numbers down????
Tuesday morning we had some trouble with the electric at the Centre. I tried to start up the generator. Battery dead. mean while Spot (Large sheep)came over to me and bucked me and my knee as been in pain since. I hit him over the head with a two by four. He just looked at me and said let play some more. We need to get him a friend or rite of him. I know some others have been bucked by him before. Now remember I did teach him that trick when he was a lamb. I would put my fist out and say come on hit it. He learned fast and now I get the pay back.
We got the electric back up, but I was still hurting, and still are.
Wednesday my next group came in, Calvary Chapel Ft Laud. 8 of them. They got in the I took them around and Mark showed them what and why we do what we do. Then the next day they were pretty much on their own. They did well. I think?
Friday Harri came in to help me. Which was a neat time to share and just get some work done. The toilet below is still leaking? We know now what is wrong. The tank has a crack and the water is dripping out there. I bought some stuff Harri told me that would work. I hope Monday to fix that.
Friday the train battery dead. So pulled it and put a charge on it. Plus a couple of others things broke too. But over all we are in good shape.
Saturday fixed the train. Then the van battery went dead? Pulled it out and it is on the charger as I write. Pulled the battery out of the Ford. Now that doesn't have a battery. The Jeep and Ford no battery. Hopefully Monday we should be in good shape. Prayerfully.
Today Sunday, I have been able to get on my blog and write and pictures all kinds of tings. I could not get onto my blog log in last week. I was using Fire Fox. Now using Explorer. That is why I have not written on it since last week end.
