"What kind of foolish assumptions do you make?"

We make foolish assumptions every day, don’t we? We assume lots of people die in plane crashes every year, but actually more people are killed by donkeys every year. We assume money is made out of paper, right? Nope, it’s made out of cotton. And we assume a “jiffy” is just an expression, but it’s an actual unit of time for 1/100th of a second. We assume an ostrich has a decent-sized brain, but actually the eye of an ostrich is bigger than its brain. And we assume the saying, “The good Lord willing and the creek don’t rise” has something to do with a stream of water, but it really is a western pioneer reference to the Creek Native Americans.

Another foolish assumption we make is that we have to be perfect for God to love us. But God loves us despite our imperfections. So be foolish today, and remember—God loves you regardless.

Isn't it great, that when you need a little pick me up and you aren't sure were you are going to get it from and then you stop, listen to life and it is presented to you. Because when we stop and listen to life, we stop making assumptions and listen to word from God.
So, find someone today and tell them to stop and listen listen to life, I know that I have gotten 3 people to signup for the Today's Story and the love it!!
