Daily Good Stuff 205

I promised you an announcement yesterday. Here it is: Daily Good Stuff is coming back to the weekend. Yes, Saturday and Sunday will have DGS posts once again. So, what about Weekly News and Weekly Funnies? They’ll stay right where they are.

But, right now, it’s Wednesday and we’ve got some good stuff to look at.

The first step toward success is taken when you refuse to be a captive of the environment in which you first find yourself. Mark Caine

“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.” Matthew 7:24-27

Thank you! I always wondered about that. The amount of castles I’ve gone through is unforgivable!

Daily Good Stuff 203

Monday, Monday, Monday! You love it; I love it. It’s time to get this day started…the right way.

Learn from the past, set vivid, detailed goals for the future, and live in the only moment of time over which you have any control: now. Denis Waitley

You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:6-8

Weekly News 10

Hey, how was your week? I hope it went well. Let’s look at the latest news.

The story is a video but this teen saved a drowning man.
And now, guys listen…I get it, we have needs. But, for the love of God, you can’t get your penis stuck in heavy steel rings, vacuum cleaner, a toaster and more. You know who you are. Read up if you have no idea what I’m talking about.
There’s a website out there aiming to help people with breast cancer by giving free stuff like wigs, hats, and make-up, and free services like house cleaning, transportation and more. Breastcancerfreebies.com

By now, you’ve probably heard about this, but, our government is back in action. The shutdown is over. Or at least, I would hope so. As I’m typing this, it’s not quite official. We’ll see.

We already knew that Oreo’s are own by a company that also makes cigarettes, among other addictive things things. And so, it shouldn’t be a surprise to learn that you could actually be addicted to Oreo’s:

Oreos are as addictive as cocaine, at least for lab rats, and just like us, they like the creamy center best. Eating the sugary treats activates more neurons in the brain’s “pleasure center” than drugs such as cocaine, the team at Connecticut College found.

Yup. Okay, so the article doesn’t make the connection I made but still.

Okay, hold on to your hats…and glasses…for this guy. He’s building a house pretty much by himself. Oh, I’m sorry…he’s blind. Yeah. Blind.
And although that job alone isn’t remarkable, just imagine trying to put up a three-bedroom, two-bath ranch without any blueprints — and doing it in total darkness.
Hit the link to find out why he did it. Try not to cry, ok?
Okay, this weird news is punny. Yes, “pun”ny. Okay, so this high school teacher passed out in the classroom with 11 students. Guess why? Yup, he was high on heroin. High school, you’re doing it right.
Welp, that’s it for this week’s news. Wonder what happens next week!

Daily Good Stuff 201

Hey, if you missed the big party yesterday for DGS 200, check that out. Meanwhile, let’s get through this day. Are you ready? Let’s go!

Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 1 John 4:7

We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience. Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Daily Good Stuff 200: The Best of DGS 2

You knew this was coming. If you didn’t, let me talk about it a little. I take my favorite parts from previous DGS and combine into a grand feature. The first time I did it, it was 1-99. Today, 101-199. It’ll follow the same as the first one. My favorite five of these:

  • Quote
  • Scripture
  • Image
  • Video
  • Joke
  • Weird/Funny news
  • Good/Positive news

So, with that in mind, let’s get started!

“My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.” John 15:12-13
He answered: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.'” Luke 10:27
This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. 1 John 4:9
Now Daniel so distinguished himself among the administrators and the satraps by his exceptional qualities that the king planned to set him over the whole kingdom. At this, the administrators and the satraps tried to find grounds for charges against Daniel in his conduct of government affairs, but they were unable to do so. They could find no corruption in him, because he was trustworthy and neither corrupt nor negligent. Finally these men said, “We will never find any basis for charges against this man Daniel unless it has something to do with the law of his God.” Daniel 6:3-5
The God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. 1 Peter 5:10
