INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE FOR NOVEMBER 2016

This is a great poem that reminds us to always be mindful of our words and actions toward others because the moment we let them go, they will have an effect on someone else either good or bad. Hope you will be blessed by this poem and remember to be mindful of the pebbles that you drop in the water of life.

Enjoyed this poem for many reasons but mainly because it reminds us 
that our words do not end when we finish speaking them, but they go on and 
on to either bless or discourage someone else. What you do for one person will not end with that
 person but will be passed on to others, just as you passed a blessing or 
kind gesture on to someone else.

This is the day, which the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in 
it. No matter how good or bad your day may be, smile and thank the Lord 
for all that you have. It is not always easy to be thankful when 
things seem to be going wrong, but in spite of that, show your faith and let the Lord know you will trust and believe that He has your 
best interest in mind. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 declares “In every thing give 
thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.”

Read and meditate on these scriptures:


John 13:34-35 Jesus says “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

Galatians 6:9-10 ” Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.

Luke 6:35-36 Jesus says “But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

DROP A PEBBLE IN THE WATER

Drop a pebble in the water: just a splash, and it is gone;
But there’s half-a-hundred ripples circling on and on and on, Spreading, spreading from the center, flowing on out to the sea. And there is no way of telling where the end is going to be.

Drop a pebble in the water: in a minute you forget,
But there’s little waves a-flowing, and there’s ripples circling yet,
And those little waves a-flowing to a great big wave have grown;
You’ve disturbed a mighty river just by dropping in a stone.

Drop an unkind word, or careless: in a minute it is gone;
But there’s half-a-hundred ripples circling on and on and on.
They keep spreading, spreading, spreading from the center as they go,
And there is no way to stop them, once you’ve started them to flow.

Drop an unkind word, or careless: in a minute you forget;
But there’s little waves a-flowing, and there’s ripples circling yet,
And perhaps in some sad heart a mighty wave of tears you’ve stirred,
And disturbed a life was happy ere you dropped that unkind word.

Drop a word of cheer and kindness: just a flash and it is gone;
But there’s half-a-hundred ripples circling on and on and on,
Bearing hope and joy and comfort on each splashing, dashing wave
Till you wouldn’t believe the volume of the one kind word you gave.

Drop a word of cheer and kindness: in a minute you forget; 

But there’s gladness still a-swelling, and there’s joy circling yet,
And you’ve rolled a wave of comfort whose sweet music can be heard
Over miles and miles of water just by dropping one kind word.
