      Are you available for God?s plan today?
      Matthew 28:19-19


      Are You Available For God?s Plan Today?

      Matthew 28:19
      Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

      The question is not, can God use me today. The question is am I available to be used by God today? Moreover do you want to be used of God today?
      Most would quickly say yes I would love to be used of God today; I just never get a chance. Or I have sinned therefore God can?t possibly use some one like me.

      O brother Greg you don?t understand, I am just a kid God can?t possibly use me! Little brother or sister, you have no idea how much God could use you, if only you were available to be used.

      Did you know that there are two kinds of people in this world, those who are used of God, and those who are not? (Ouch) So what?s the difference? Great question I am so glad you asked?

      The only difference is that one submits to the plan of God, and the other doesn?t. What! That?s it! That?s the only difference? That?s right the bible teaches us that God is no respecter of persons. Acts 10:34 KJV
      God shows no favoritism but accepts people from every nation who fear him and do what is right. Acts 10:34-35 NIV

      God don?t care who you are or where you come from, he loves you just as much as he loves everyone else. (Wow! He is awesome!)

      Have you ever considered that every choice you make, actually comes down to one of two things.
      Will you follow the plan of GOD or not? Everything? Yes everything.

      If there was a dollar on the floor, and you saw it knowing that it was not yours, you would have two choices. You could stick it in your pocket, or try to find it?s rightful owner. Which would be Gods way?

      That?s right trying to find it?s rightful owner.
      By doing this you would be used of God. How?
      Good question. Because if you found the person that lost the dollar they would be amazed that you didn?t keep it. This would be a great chance to tell them about Jesus, and what he means to you.

      God?s plan for all believers is to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ. God puts his people in contact with the lost world every day. The question is how will we respond? Will you let the world see Jesus in you? Will you tell of the new life you have, since Jesus came into your heart? Will you live your life for the one who gave you life?

      Most people look at the verse in Matthew and say well that?s for preachers, and teachers.
      Did you know this verse is for all of God?s children? Did you know that most people who don?t know God come to church because someone asked them to? When was the last time you asked someone to come to church with you?

      Even if you?re not the one teaching, God could use you to bring someone to church, so that they can learn about God. Every one of us has a part in God?s plan to save people from their sins.

      Each and every day we have the opportunity to be used of God. Will today be the day you allow God to use you, to tell the wonderful news about Jesus?

          IRENIC - [i-REH-nik (with a long "i" in the first syllable)] adjective
          : favoring, conducive to, or operating toward peace, moderation, or
          conciliation

          Example sentence:
          Sasha had always been one of the more irenic students on campus, so we weren't
          surprised to learn that she had helped negotiate a truce between feuding
          student factions.

          Did you know?
          In Greek mythology, Eirene was one of the Horae, the goddesses of the seasons
          and natural order; in the Iliad they are the custodians of the gates of
          Olympus. According to Hesiod, the Horae were the daughters of Zeus and a
          Titaness named Themis, and their names indicate their function and relation to
          human life. Eirene was the goddess of peace. Her name is also the Greek word
          for "peace," and it gave rise to "irenic" and other peaceable terms
          including "irenics" (a theological term for advocacy of Christian
          unity), "Irena" (the genus name of two species of fairy bluebirds found in
          southern Asia and the Philippines), and the name "Irene."

              Sorry, religious, but personally I see nothing conducive to peace or moderation
              or conciliation in religion called Christianity or otherwise. Death to
              institutionalised religions!!!
              My intention in posting Irenic was to broden vocabulary!

                Hello, guys & gals!...

                Let's get back to our "The word of the day" thing, courtesy of Merriam-Webster
                Well, since we've been interrupted by some bible puncher, two words today:

                "Halcyon" \HAL-see-un\ adjective
                1 : calm, peaceful
                2 : happy, golden
                3 : prosperous, affluent

                Example sentence:
                Tara claimed to have found the ideal cure for her stress-related ills: a quiet
                weekend in the halcyon atmosphere of a beautiful country town.

                Did you know?
                According to Greek mythology, Alkyone, the daughter of the god of the winds,
                became so distraught when she learned that her husband had been killed in a
                shipwreck that she threw herself into the sea and was changed into a
                kingfisher. As a result, ancient Greeks called such birds "alkyon"
                or "halkyon." The legend also says that such birds built floating nests on the
                sea, where they so charmed the wind god that he created a period of unusual
                calm that lasted until the birds' eggs hatched. This legend prompted people to
                use "halcyon" both as a noun naming a genus of kingfisher and as an adjective
                meaning either "of or relating to the kingfisher or its nesting period"
                or "calm."

                "Popinjay" \PAH-pin-jay\ noun

                : a strutting supercilious person

                Example sentence:
                The cast and crew of the production soon learned to ignore the vain arrogance
                of the temperamental popinjay who was playing the leading role.

                Did you know?
                Popinjays and parrots are birds of a feather, etymologically
                speaking. "Popinjay" was borrowed from a Middle French word for "parrot" back
                in the 1500s, when parrots were rare and were considered exotic. At that time,
                it was quite a compliment to be called a "popinjay" after such a beautiful
                bird. But as parrots became more commonplace, their gaudy plumage and vulgar
                mimicry helped "popinjay" develop the pejorative sense we use today.

                Thank you for your attention!

                  "cogent" - \KOH-junt\ adjective

                  1 : having power to compel or constrain
                  *2 a : appealing forcibly to the mind or reason : convincing b : pertinent,
                  relevant

                  Example sentence:
                  Professor Rukhin complimented Jim on presenting a cogent analysis and clear,
                  compelling arguments in his term paper.

                  Did you know?
                  "Trained, knowledgeable agents make cogent suggestions . . . that make sense to
                  customers." It makes sense for us to include that comment from the president of
                  a direct marketing consulting company because it provides such a nice
                  opportunity to point out the etymological relationship between the
                  words "cogent" and "agent." "Agent" derives from the Latin verb "agere," which
                  means "to drive," "to lead," or "to act." Adding the prefix "co-" to "agere"
                  gave Latin "cogere," a word that literally means "to drive together"; that
                  ancient term ultimately gave English "cogent." Something that is cogent
                  figuratively pulls together thoughts and ideas, and the cogency of an argument
                  depends on a driving intellectual force behind it.

                  *Indicates the sense illustrated in the example sentence.
                  ____________

                  "nonplus" - \nahn-PLUSS\ verb

                  : to cause to be at a loss as to what to say, think, or do : perplex

                  Example sentence:
                  It was unusual for anything to nonplus Phil, but Paulette's question caught him
                  so completely by surprise that it left him utterly speechless.

                  Did you know?
                  Does "nonplus" perplex you? You aren't alone. Some people believe the "non"
                  in "nonplus" means "not" and assume that to be "nonplussed" is to be calm and
                  poised when just the opposite is true. If you are among the baffled, the word's
                  history may clarify things. In Latin, "non plus" means "no more."
                  When "nonplus" debuted in English in the 16th century, it was used as a noun
                  synonymous with "quandary." Someone brought to a nonplus had reached an impasse
                  in an argument and could say no more. Within 10 years of the first known use of
                  the noun, people began using "nonplus" as a verb, and today it is often used in
                  participial form (as in "Joellen's nasty remark left us utterly nonplussed").

                  *Indicates the sense illustrated in the example sentence.
