And I heard about this lady that was stopped at an intersection. A man came up asking for money. She dug in her purse and found a dollar bill. She rolled down her window, said, sir, I'm not giving you this because you deserve it. I'm giving it to you because it makes me happy. He looked at her and said, ma'am, why don't you give me $20 and thoroughly enjoy yourself?

Say it like you mean it. This is my Bible. I am what it says I am. I have what it says I have. I can do what it says I can do. Today, I will be taught the Word of God. I boldly confess, my mind is alert, my heart is receptive, I will never be the same. In Jesus' name, God bless you.
