Sir Alex Ferguson Retires

The King of Managers Retires

It was a sad day when the final announcement came through that Sir Alex Ferguson was to retire at the end of this 2012/2013 Premier League Season. He has been at Manchester United since 1986, and has proven to be one of the best if not the best Manager to take charge of a English club, and the proof is in the pudding, from taking a team such as Manchester United who had not won anything in nearly 26 years to team that the world respected and feared, helping United to win 13 league titles, two Champions Leagues, the Cup Winners' Cup, five FA Cups and four League Cups.

Forgiveness and inner healing

Inner Healing

God loved us so much that he paid the ultimate price for our emotional healing in the work on the cross.

It happens to all of us, somewhere everyone of us has been hurt, and usually the easiest way to deal with that hurt is to lash out at others, friends, family, and loved ones.

Food for thought

Food for thought

 A Japanese sword maker will take a ordinary sheet of steel, and over a space of a couple of weeks to even a few months, this samurai sword maker will bend and twist and hammer this steel, folding the steel and then hammering the heck out it, he will do this over and over again sometimes up to 1000 folds, each fold hammering the steel flat, taking his time never rushing it, because the more folds there are the stronger the sword is.

Strength

Strong Christians

When David met Goliath on the battle field he did not act like a wimp, or ask for mercy, he did not back down or run away, instead he stood his ground against a giant of a man, picked a small stone and without hesitation swung it with deadly force bringing down the giant that had been terrifying the Israelites. I like this story of supporting the underdog, because he has nothing to loose.

The same goes for Samson although his arrogance and pride, God gave him a gift of strength, and with this strength he broke free from chains, killed a thousand men with a donkeys jaw, and brought an entire temple down.

Fats

Healthy fats to graze on

Choose the right side

 

Through Gods strength i will not waver, i will not be moved, i will not give up, nor will i submit to the attacks of the enemy, for i know that my strength comes from the Almighty God, i am that warrior on the frontline and i am clothed with the armour of God, waiting on God for my next instruction, the next tactic, i will not make a move without Gods command, even though the arrows come in with deadly force my faith is in him to protect me, to guide me, so i will not be moved, but instead stand firm, with a humble smile, knowing that we have already won through Gods grace and almighty power. And when the fiery cloud of the final battle fades away i will still be standing in Gods grace and mercy, with victory cries glorifying him, ready to forgive and to love those who attacked, for our God is a forgiving one, and i will strive to be as Christ like as i can be towards those whom have tried to hurt me. Its the war that counts in Gods favour not the battles. So to him be the controller of my life, for he is more powerful than anyone imagination, so then, whom better to take take control than the creator of it all.

The Bachelors Pad

 

Try to avoid clichés when designing a bachelor pad. Unsure of a particular design style, then

transitional interiors are a great middle ground between traditional and modern. Modern too cold or sparse and traditional too stuffy then the ideal style will be transitional. 

 

Transitional is clean, classic and updated, living room sofa sleek and modern pair it with a classic, traditional style coffee table. Use modern art, rustic accents.

Guidance

 

Asking for Gods guidance can sometimes feel like a schlep, especially for us men, who wont even ask for directions when we get lost, thats if we even admit to getting lost.

The same principle counts here, when we feel lost instead of burying our heads and keep going the same course due for a collision into a brick wall we should there and then turn to God for guidance or direction if you will. Admitting that we are lost and that we need his guidance to correct us.

Men are the head of the families and if you are losing direction, there is a good chance that your family will follow.

10 Simple Rules for Dating My Daughter

Ten Simple Rules for Dating My Daughter

Rule One:
 If you pull into my driveway and honk you'd better be delivering a package, because you're sure not picking anything up.


Rule Two: 
 You do not touch my daughter in front of me. You may glance at her, so long as you do not peer at anything below her neck. If you cannot keep your eyes or hands off of my daughter's body, I will remove them.


Rule Three: 
 I am aware that it is considered fashionable for boys of your age to wear their trousers so loosely that they appear to be falling off their hips. Please don't take this as an insult, but you and all of your friends are complete idiots. Still, I want to be fair and open minded about this issue, so I propose his compromise: You may come to the door with your underwear showing and your pants ten sizes too big, and I will not object. However, in order to ensure that your clothes do not, in fact, come off during the course of your date with my daughter, I will take my electric nail gun and fasten

Dont Doubt

 

It happens to all of us, maybe even more than others, but it still does happen, we doubt ourselves when we do the right thing, or we doubt ourselves when things are going right, and it seems to be to good to be true. Especially when we have seen Gods power before, but on other situations we tend to battle, doubting whether he can help again when something else more difficult or even easier crosses our paths.

Chicken Pita Power

 

A meal that is healthy and nutritious, packed with good protein, healthy fats, and low GI carbs, and lets not forget the fibre. Pita bread topped with barbecue sauce, chicken strips, chillies, and mozzarella, sounds good right! Well it is.
