[Faith-talk] A Layman's Ten Commandments

[Debbie]

A girl I used to work with sent these to me, and of course, it was forwarded 
from who knows where, so I just cut out all that excess stuff, and hope 
someone found it thought-provoking.

>> A LAYMAN'S TEN COMMANDMENTS
>> {Someone wrote these beautiful words. As you read, try to understand the 
>> deep meaning of them! They are like the Ten Commandments we need to 
>> follow everyday.}
>>
>> 1] Prayer is not a "spare wheel" that you pull out when in trouble, but 
>> it is a "steering wheel" that directs the right path throughout.
>>
>> 2] Why is a car's WINDSHIELD so large and the Rear view Mirror so small? 
>> Because, our PAST is not as important as our FUTURE. So, Look Ahead and 
>> Move on.
>>
>> 3] Friendship is like a Book. It takes only a few seconds to burn it, but 
>> it takes years to write it.
>>
>> 4] All things in life are temporary. If going well, enjoy them, they will 
>> not last forever. If things are going wrong, don't worry, they can't last 
>> long either.
>>
>> 5] Old Friends are Gold! New Friends are Diamond! If you get a Diamond, 
>> don't forget the Gold! Because to hold a Diamond, you always need a Base 
>> of Gold!
>>
>> 6] Often when we lose Hope and think this is the end, GOD smiles from 
>> above and says, "Relax, Sweetheart, it's just a bend, not the end!
>>
>> 7] When GOD solves your problems, you have Faith in HIS abilities; when 
>> GOD doesn't solve your problems HE has Faith in your abilities.
>>
>> 8] A blind person asked St. Anthony: "Can there be anything worse than 
>> losing ones eyesight?" He replied: "Yes, losing your Vision!"
>>
>> 9] When you Pray for others, God listens to you and blesses them. When 
>> you are safe and happy, remember that someone has Prayed for you.
>>
>> 10] WORRYING does not take away tomorrow's TROUBLES, it takes away 
>> today's PEACE.
