Galatians 6:3 - "For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing he deceiveth himself." As I watch the political race and also work in a corporate environment, men and woman think they are something more than they are it reminds me that we are nothing without Christ.  We need Him to be good husbands and fathers and employers or employees. -

Colossians 3:2 - "Set your affection on things above, not on things in the earth." If we could get this one thing right in our lives all other things would fall in line. - Wes Smith

Acts 1:8b - "...and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth." Every word Jesus spoke while on earth was important but these were Jesus' last words to his disciples before ascending to Heaven. Let's try to be a witness today on visitation! - Wes Smith

Genesis 1:1 - "In the beginning God created the Heavens and the earth." I am in the woods with Sam this morning, and we have seen God's creation  and have been amazed with what God has created here on earth so I can only imagine what he has created for us in Heaven" -

Proverbs 11:1 - "A false balance is abomination to the Lord: but a just weight is his delight" This verse can be applied in so many areas of our life. Our Pastor has said for years that as men we will never achieve true balance in our lives, but we should strive to keep our priorities straight. - Wes Smith

I Timothy 6:6 - "But godliness with contentment is great gain..." The next verse states that we will take out what we brought in to this world when we were born... So let's not worry about what we can accumulate, but who we can win for Christ! - Wes Smith

Proverbs 18:21 - "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof." We must remember how powerful our words can be for both encouragement or destructiveness. Think before you speak! - Wes Smith

I Thessalonians 5:17 - "Pray without ceasing." There has been no other time in our lifetime more important to follow this simple verse than now. Our children need prayer, our nation needs prayer, and we as men need prayer. Pray this morning this afternoon and tonight! - Wes Smith

Romans 5:3,4 - "And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; and patience, experience and experience, hope..." We want the patience of Job but we don't want the tribulations...we gain patience, experience, and hope when we go through tough times. So thank God for them! - Wes Smith

Matthew 10:32 - "Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in Heaven." With all the political news and agenda going on now we should use this as a time to let those around us know that we believe in Jesus Christ and tell them what He did for us. - Wes Smith

John 7:17 - "If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine." God will show us His will for our life if we not only seek it but more importantly have a willing heart to do what He has for us. - Wes Smith

Proverbs 24:13-14 - "My son eat thou honey, because it is good and the honeycomb which is sweet to thy taste. So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul when thou hast found it then there shall be a reward and thy expectation shall not be cut off." We can only gain true wisdom from the Word of God so with the new year starting I am going to commit myself to spending more time in His Word than this past year! - Wes Smith

Matthew 7:4 - "Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull the mote out of thine eye,and behold a beam is in thine own eye?" We should be looking for small things in our lives to straighten out not being critical to our Christian brothers... - Wes Smith

Luke 6:38 - "Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure pressed down and shaken together and running over."

Remember in this Christmas season the more you give to God the more you will receive back from Him..."running over" the verse says! - Wes Smith

Philippians 4:11-12 - "Not that I speak in respect of want for I have  learned in whatsoever state I am therewith to be content. I know both how to be abased and I know how to abound every where and in all things I am instructed both to be hungry both to abound and to suffer need." A long time ago a good friend shared this verse with me and it helped me through a tough time...thought I would share it in case someone is having a tough time. Lean on Jesus and your Christian brothers! - Wes Smith

Proverbs 20:29 - "The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the grey head." We have all the above and some in between on here so don't forget our roles that God gave us, including working hard and providing guidance to the younger men.

Colossians 3:12 - "Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, and longsuffering." We must deliberately put these things on every morning as our flesh does want to be meek and humble. - Wes Smith

John 3:30 - "He must increase but I must decrease." We must die to self daily if we want to be used by God. - Wes Smith

1 Corinthians 15:58 - "Therefore my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast,unmovable,  always abounding in the work of the Lord,forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord." At times we may not see the benefit of our secular work, but know that everything we do for Christ counts for eternity.  - Wes Smith

Romans 8:28 - "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God..." This is easy to read but hard to live when you are in the valley.  - Wes Smith
