Do to others as you would have them do to you. [Luke 6:31]
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, lean not on your own understanding. [Proverbs 3:5]
Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. [Hebrews 11:1]

My Saturday-Sunday...

  • 2am-ish to 10:30am-ish [Bed zzzzing...got up from time to time to do #1...]
  • 11:30am-ish - 2pm-ish [chat with NG]
  • 3pm [Lunch]
  • 4:30pm-ish to 6:30pm-ish [laundry, I decided to wash my undies along with my jeans and shirts, so, I'd have a laundry free Sunday for this week. Hee. I was in the mood for it, might as well no?]
  • 7pm-10pm [nap time]
  • 10pm-ish - 11pm-ish [Bible reading time]
  • 12am-ish onwards [Played some Mission Tank on Nadine's Gameboy which she lent to me last Friday night then just stayed in bed...trying to sleep again...no luck...]
  • 3am-ish [went online, updated the daily breads and updating this blog...]
  • I should go back to bed...I think, I will...I'm quite tired...another weekend is almost over...a brand new work week is upon me...a busy week as far as I know...better than not busy. I'm grateful. I just whine about it from time to time. Human nature yes?
  • In Entertainment News, Paris Hilton is going to jail for 45 days...hmmmm...I guess, money can't buy your way out of trouble all the time no? America is really strict with their laws and what not no? Whether you're an ordinary or a famous person, doesn't matter, if you violate the law, you must pay for the consequence. Jail is one place I don't ever want to be in.
  • Here's something I got from Beliefnet about money and the bible. Worth sharing me thinks.
    The Bible and Money: 10 Tips from Scripture
    Finance guides come and go, but as Christians throughout the centuries have known, the Bible is a finance guide for all time. From stories about rich men and paupers to proverbs with sharp insights, God's word is filled with good advice on money.

    The Bible cannot tell you how to diversify your portfolio, but it can tell you how to be the kind of person who saves enough money, spends wisely, plans ahead, gives generously, and learns to enjoy money.

    (All verses in New International Version unless otherwise noted.)

    Tip #1: Remember that God creates wealth
    "Remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you the ability to produce wealth." [Deuteronomy 8:18]

    Tip #2: Feeling rich? Give thanks to God
    "This is what the Lord says: 'Let not the wise man boast of his wisdom or the strong man boast of his strength or the rich man boast of his riches, but let him who boasts boast about this: that he understands and knows Me, that I am the Lord, who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight,' declares the Lord." [Jeremiah 9:23-24]

    Tip #3: Save for the kids' inheritance
    "A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children." [Proverbs 13:22]

    Tip #4: Get out of debt in order to be free
    "The poor are always ruled over by the rich, so don't borrow and put yourself under their power" (MSG). [Proverbs 22:7]

    Tip #5: Guard against greed
    "Then [Jesus] said to them, 'Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; a man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.'" [Luke 12:15]

    Tip #6: Remember that money isn't evil, but loving it is
    "For the love of money is a root of all sorts of evil, and some people by longing for it have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs" (NASB).
    [I Timothy 6:10]

    Tip #7: Give back to God
    "Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops; then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine." [Proverbs 3:9]

    Tip #8: Know that everything belongs to God
    "And remember, the land is Mine, so you may not sell it permanently. You are merely My tenants and sharecroppers!" [Leviticus 25:23]

    Tip #9: Put God before money
    "But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well." [Matthew 6:33]

    Tip #10: Count the cost of your spending
    "For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it?" [Luke 14:28]
  • Okays, that will be it for now. Must go back to bed. Have a fine Sunday. Keep the faith. God Bless.
